HELLO,

General merit and cut off marks:-

stream--- SX (52.00% and above)

SC/ST cut off marks in KVPY:-

stream---SX (40.00% and above)

PWD students cut off marks in KVPY:-

stream---SX (40.00% and above)

A number of factors determine KVPY cutoff which includes the maximum as well as the minimum marks secured by aspirants. The cut off for each stream is declared out of 100 marks. The final merit list is prepared by giving 75 percent weightage to the aptitude test and 25 percent weightage to interview.

HOPE THIS HELP!

Hello there!!

While preparing for biology whether for KVPY or NEET, Ncerts are more than enough. But you will have to study them thoroughly ( both class 11th and 12th ).

For practice, you can prefer any neet based question bank. This will be more than enough.

All the best!!!

Admission to the Bachelor of Science (Research) Programme - 2020 in Indian Institute of Science (IISc) will be based on the merit list of JEE Main - 2020 or JEE Advanced - 2020 . Minimum percentage required in these examinations are 60% for General, 54% for EWS, 54% OBC-NCL and 30% for SC or ST or PwD category candidates.

Candidates can apply online on the official website (https://admissions.iisc.ac.in/Web/SelectUGPG.aspx) for admission. Application was started on 2 February 2020 and will closed on 30 April 2020 .

If you have attempted all the four sections in KVPY, then as you said you appeared in SX stream, you had to attempt any two out of the four sections, but don't worry there is no loss in attempting all the four sections because in this case marks of the best two out of the four sections will be taken into account for calculation of the final result.

1. Do not ignore the 11th standard syllabus. Even though you have limited time, 11th standard studies are your foundation and in my opinion harder than class 12th syllabus. Be concise in your revision, but thorough.
   If you see paper of 2015, there are questions from friction, KTG in Physics.
2. For Biology, read NCERT well. I would suggest 2–3 chapters each day. It has a very vast syllabus so do not take it lightly.
3. For Chemistry, I would suggest do not forget the reaction in OC (11th builds the base but all the reactions and topics are mainly in 12th).

Biotech, Cell cycle and Genetics are important but that doesn’t mean you ignore human and plant physiology.
Physics- you’ll require lots of question practice to become familiar with the equations (magnetics, electrostats, SHM, etc.) and do not become nervous in exam.
Chemistry- I don’t think they ask give reasons sort of questions (d & f block), but both other properties from s, p, d, f block are important. Also, the reactions and physical chemistry has both concepts and numericals.

1. Solve last 7 years of paper (within a week). Your target should be 1 paper each day. Give 3 hrs of time for solving. After you have finished, mark your tests and analyse the questions that you made wrong. Try to understand the concept behind that question.
2. Have you finished solving papers? If yes, you already have covered 75% of the syllabus. Well done!! Now you need to review only those chapters in your NCERT book that is related to the questions you have solved so far. This will take another 2 weeks at max.
