HI ,

NO you can't take up for SX stream but surely you can take up KVPY for SB stream .

Those students who have completed 11th or equivalent stream with minimum 75% aggregate and are enrolled in 12th and willing to join Undergraduate for basic sciences in year 202-21 can take up KVPY through SX stream.

Whereas If you have already passed the 12th or its equivalent and youre in your 1 year of undergraduation in Basic sciences and you have minimum of 60 % in your 12th , then you can apply for KVPY for the following year through SB stream. You should also have 60% aggregate in your first year of your Undergraduate.

KVPY is organized by department of science and technology and it encourages students to take up research in basic sciences. They give fellowship and contigental grants for the selected students in KVPY fellows upto pre PhD levels.

For year 2019, this aptitude test is scheduled in november 2019. Once you are shortlisted you will have interview and based on that the final selections are done.

Hope this helped with your query,

For any further queries , you can get in touch anytime.

All the best.

Hey, In this case , then I think you should be able to apply through SX stream, because you will be taking your exam onn ovember 2019 and youll get admissions into undergraduate in year 2020-21, so you should be ablw to take the exam through SX stream. But however it would be better if you call to the examination authority and confirm once. here I have mentioned thier contact number, call in between the work hours. You can also mail them regarding your doubt of stream. You can mail them by telling that you have passed 12th but you took an year break and now whether you can apply through stream SX. They will surely reply back within the working hours. As far as my knowledge goes, in this case where you have completed 12th and have not taken any admissions to bachelors undergraduate course, you should be able to apply through SX stream Contact information : mail address - applications.kvpy@iisc.ac.in ( for application based queries) and fellowship.kvpy@iisc.ac.in (for fellowship related queries). Contact number : 080-22932975/76, 080- 23601008 , 080-22933536Hope this will help.
