Oh that was a very fast reply. That helps a lot. My daughter is interested in Biology and somewhat in Chemistry. I would like to know about the mode of admission in these IISER institues. Is it through some nation wide entrance apart from JEE?

Dear aspirant,
Yes, there are different modes of entry to IISERs.
IISERs are a good place to pursue Biology and Chemistry and the choice of major of your daughter might change after going through the foundation courses.
1. IAT - IISER Aptitude Test - This exam is conducted once every year and has 4 subjects, 60 questions, 15 from each biology, physics, maths, and chemistry. The total marks is 180 . +3 for every right answer and -1 for every wrong answer. 50%of the admissions happen via this portal.
They'll declare a cut-off for board marks and only students with marks above that cut-off are eligible to write the exam.
2. JEE Advanced and KVPY ranks - The other 50 percent happens based on the KVPY and JEE Advanced portal. Admission is decided based on your preference and ranks. You should have obtained a rank of below 10 k in JEE Advanced.
Now that KVPY exam has been scraped off we don't yet know how the admission scenario will change.
Top 1 percentile of students of respective boards in IISERs will be eligible for the INSIPRE Scholarship which amounts to about 60 k every year .
Hope this helps
