B.Sc. (Hons) Mathematics Entrance Coaching
Focused preparation for the JMI B.Sc. (Hons) Mathematics entrance test, built on a strong Class XI–XII Mathematics base that also serves AMU's combined B.Sc. test and CUET (UG).
About B.Sc. (Hons) Mathematics
B.Sc. (Hons) Mathematics develops advanced knowledge of pure and applied mathematics, along with mathematical reasoning, abstraction, logical analysis and modelling. University study typically covers calculus, algebra, real analysis, linear algebra, differential equations, probability, statistics and numerical methods.
At JMI the programme is offered by the Department of Mathematics as an 8-semester regular programme. Do not confuse it with B.Sc. (Hons) Applied Mathematics (B66), which used CUET for 2026–27; the two programmes have different admission routes.
Who can apply
Senior Secondary (10+2) or equivalent with at least 50% marks in the aggregate of Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics and in the subject concerned (JMI 2026–27 rules). Confirm the final conditions in the 2027–28 prospectus.

AMU and CUET (UG)
AMU B.Sc. (Hons) Mathematics
AMU admits through a Combined Admission Test for B.Sc. (Hons) in the Faculties of Science and Life Sciences: English, Chemistry and Physics (25 marks each) plus Mathematics or Biology (25 marks), 100 marks in all. A Mathematics major requires Mathematics at the qualifying examination, so AMU aspirants also prepare Physics, Chemistry and English.
CUET (UG)
Participating universities use the CUET domain paper Mathematics/Applied Mathematics (319). CUET conducts the test, but each university sets its own eligibility and subject combination, so check every target university's rules.
How we prepare you
Preparation plan
- Strengthen Class XI foundations: functions, trigonometry, algebra, coordinate geometry
- Master Class XII calculus, matrices, vectors, 3D geometry and probability
- Solve chapter-wise MCQs as soon as each chapter is finished
- Keep a formula notebook and an error notebook
- Analyse previous-year questions for style and difficulty
- Move from chapter tests to full-length timed mocks, with error analysis after each

Career and higher-study options
B.Sc. (Hons) Mathematics entrance: common questions
What is the JMI B.Sc. (Hons) Mathematics programme code?
The current JMI programme code for B.Sc. (Hons) Mathematics is B54. It is an 8-semester regular programme of the Department of Mathematics.
Is JMI B.Sc. Mathematics admission through CUET?
No. For 2026–27 B.Sc. (Hons) Mathematics (B54) had its own JMI entrance test. The separate B.Sc. (Hons) Applied Mathematics (B66) used CUET. Check the 2027–28 prospectus for any change.
What is the eligibility for JMI B.Sc. (Hons) Mathematics?
Senior Secondary (10+2) or equivalent with at least 50% marks in the aggregate of Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics and in the subject concerned, subject to the university's full rules.
Is Mathematics compulsory for AMU B.Sc. Mathematics?
Yes. AMU requires candidates seeking Mathematics as their major to have passed Mathematics at the qualifying examination.
What is the AMU B.Sc. entrance pattern?
AMU's combined objective test has English, Chemistry and Physics as compulsory components plus a choice of Mathematics or Biology, each worth 25 marks, for a total of 100 marks.
What is the CUET Mathematics subject code?
Mathematics/Applied Mathematics is CUET (UG) domain subject code 319.
Is NCERT enough for the JMI Mathematics entrance?
NCERT Class XI–XII is the foundation, but you also need entrance-level problems, MCQs, previous-year questions and timed mock tests.
