Why Actuation?Reasons why Students consider ACTUATION the Best in

CSIR-JRF/NET, IIT-JAM and Beyond...

ACTUATION value system revolves around truth, transparency & commitment.

Whatever we think, we say & whatever we say, we do. We present to you what

we actually are.

We never compromise on quality. Our penchant & pursuit of quality is evident

in our every activity, in all our actions, at all times, everywhere.

ACTUATION has a pool of very competent full-time faculty ensuring you get

highly effective teachers in all the TOPICS throughout your studies .

ACTUATION has been teaching in a comprehensive way so that Students do

well in CSIR-JRF/NET, IIT-JAM (irrespective of the pattern), ISI, TIFR, CMI, NBHM,

SAU, DU and other M.Sc./Ph.D. Entrance Exams.

Our Study Material is Pattern Proof i.e. Students are prepared for the CSIR-

JRF/NET, IIT-JAM irrespective of any type of pattern.

We never increase our batch size beyond a limit, this facilitates proper Student-

Faculty interaction.

About Exam :CSIR JRF/NET:

Council of Scientific & Industrial Research (CSIR), India, a premier national

R&D organization, is among the world's largest publicly funded R&D

organization. CSIR's pioneering sustained contribution to S&T human resource

development is acclaimed nationally. Human Resource Development Group

(HRDG), a division of CSIR realizes this objective through various grants,

fellowship schemes etc.

Human Resource Development Group has been contributing significantly

towards producing an inquiring society and fast growing knowledge economy.

These numerous schemes cover a wide range of scientists (aging from 15 years

to 65 years).

(a) The MCQ test paper of each subject shall carry a maximum of 200 marks.

(b) The exam shall be for duration of three hours.

(C) The question paper shall be divided in three parts

1. Part 'A' shall be common to all subjects. This part shall be a test

containing a maximum of 20 questions of General Aptitude test. The

candidates shall be required to answer any 15 questions of two marks

each. The total marks allocated to this section shall be 30 out of 200.

marks allocated to this section shall be 70 out of 200. The maximum

number of questions to be attempted shall be in the range of 20-35.

3. Part 'C' shall contain higher value questions that may test the

candidate's knowledge of scientific concepts and/or application of the

scientific concepts. The questions shall be of analytical nature where a

candidate is expected to apply the scientific knowledge to arrive at the

solution to the given scientific problem. The total marks allocated to this

section shall be 100 out of 200.

4. A negative marking for wrong answers, wherever required, shall be @

25%.

IIT-JAMJoint Admission Test for M.Sc. (JAM) is being conducted from 2004 to provide

admissions to M.Sc. (Four Semesters), Joint M.Sc.-Ph.D., M.Sc.-Ph.D. Dual

Degree, M.Sc.-M.Tech., etc. Programmes at the IITs and Integrated Ph.D. Degree

Programmes at IISc for consolidating Science as a career option for bright

students. These postgraduate programmes at IITs and IISc offer high quality

education in their respective disciplines, comparable to the best in the world.
