Hi
Contribution based JSA is only based on the National Insurance you have paid in the last 2 tax years, so if you have been working p/t then poss not paying NI its doubtful you will qualify for it. As you are single and living with parents you will most likely be receiving IB JSA.
Fill in both parts and the Jobcentreplus office will decide which you receive after checking your NI record.
