Hello,



This is Searles Eligibility criteria :

Candidates who have passed 10+2 or equivalent level exam with science stream in 2019 or 2020 are eligible to apply for admissions. Candidates will be admitted to IISER only through following three channels.

Kishore Vaigyanik Protsahan Yojana (KVPY) channel
Joint Entrance Examination (JEE-Advanced) of the Indian Institutes of Technology
State and Central Boards Channel (SCB)
These channels will be referred to as KVPY, JEE, and SCB, respectively.

Indian nationals and students belonging to PIO or OCI category are eligible to apply provided they satisfy the eligibility criteria described below.

KVPY Channel

Candidates having a valid KVPY fellowship commencing from 2020-21 academic session are eligible to apply for admissions. Additional cut-off criteria for marks obtained in 10+2 board examination is also applicable.

JEE-Advanced Channel

Candidates in General category securing a rank within 10000 in the Common Rank List (CRL) of JEE Advanced 2020 are eligible to apply. For candidates belonging to the reserved category (OBC-NC, SC, ST, PD), their category rank should be within 10000. Additional cut-off criteria for marks obtained in 10+2 board examination is also applicable.

SCB Channel

Students who have passed 10+2 level with science stream in 2019 or 2020 are eligible to apply for admissions and appear for IAT 2020.
However, they will be considered for admissions to the degree programmes only if they obtain the cut-off marks specified for their board.
Students applying through SCB channel will have to appear in the IISER Aptitude Test (IAT) which will be conducted at various centres across the country.

PERFORMANCE CRITERIA IN CLASS XII (OR EQUIVALENT) BOARD EXAMINATION FOR IISER ADMISSION 2020:

The candidate must have marks within the category-wise cut-off as shown in the table above for their respective Class XII (or equivalent) Board examination for being eligible to get admission to IISERs. Additionally, for admission to engineering programmes through JEE advanced channel, candidates who have secured 75% marks (GEN/EWS/OBC-NCL) or 65% marks (SC/ST/PwD) in their Class XII (or equivalent) exams are also eligible.
For candidates who appeared in the Class XII (or equivalent) Board examination for the first time in 2019 and reappeared in any subject (for whatsoever reason) in 2020, the better of two performances will be considered.
If a Board gives aggregate marks considering both Class XI and Class XII examinations (in the 10+2 system), then only Class XII marks will be considered. If a Board gives aggregate marks considering the results of all three years of a 3-year diploma or courses of equivalent duration, then only the marks scored in the final year will be considered. Similarly, for boards which follow a semester system, the marks scored in the final two semesters will be considered.
In case any of the subjects Mathematics or Biology, Physics, Chemistry, and Language are not evaluated in the final year (e.g., in a 3-year diploma course), then the marks for the same subject from the previous year(s) will be used for calculating the percentage of aggregate marks.
If a Board awards only letter grades without providing an equivalent percentage of marks on the grade -sheet, the candidate should obtain a certificate from the Board specifying the equivalent marks and submit it before the deadline of the mark-sheet submission. In case such a certificate is not provided by the Board, meeting minimum eligibility criteria will be assessed as follows: If CGPA/CPI is reported on any scale other than 10 (for example, 4 points or 8 points scale), an equivalent CGPA/CPI will be calculated as per the following formula: CGPA/CPI in a 10 point scale = (CGPA/CPI Obtained10)/PS. Finally, the marks will be linearly scaled out of 500. (Here PS stands for Point scale used by the Board).
If a Board does not give marks/grades scored in individual subjects but gives only the aggregate marks/grades, then the aggregate marks/grades given by the Board will be considered as such (linearly scaled out of 500 if the total marks are not out of 500).
Candidates from any board other than the ones listed in the above table (of State and Central Boards) can apply only through JEE-Advanced and KVPY channels provided that they also satisfy the eligibility criteria as specified by JEE-Advanced or KVPY, as the case may be. Such candidates should either bring a certificate from their respective board that they are within top 20 percentile of their board or else cut-off scores for CBSE board will be applied for them. Additionally, for admission to engineering programmes through JEE advanced channel, candidates who have secured 75% marks (GEN/EWS/OBC-NCL) or 65% marks (SC/ST/PwD) in their Class XII (or equivalent) exams are also eligible.

I hope this helps.

Hello there!

Greetings!

Iiser Aptitude test can be considered somewhat similar to JEE Main exam , but surely its level is below JEE Advanced.One thing which makes iiser aptitude test tougher is that it also asks questions from biology as jee doesnt include questions from biology , so it becomes difficult for pcm students. The iiser aptitude test consists of 4 subjects; Physics, Chemistry, Maths & Biology. Each section has 15 Multiple Choice Questions and the time duration for all the section is 180 minutes.Every correct response fetches (+3) marks. (-1) mark is deducted for an incorrect response. No marks are deducted for unattempted responses.

thankyou

Hello Ankit guhe

These are Foundation least necessities and any Office/Center working through their DRC/CRC can indicate higher short-posting criteria than what is determined here.

This table incorporates the vast majority of the degrees yet each DRC/CRC is allowed to determine the capabilities and controls adequate for admission to their projects.

Up-and-comers in the last year of their projects and who hope to finish all their passing degree prerequisites before the third seven day stretch of July 2013 are qualified to apply for affirmations. For short-posting purposes, their presentation until the former semester (going before year if their projects are year based) would be considered yet their affirmation would be temporary, subject to their gathering the base qualification criteria after their last passing assessment results are reported.

Exceptions, relaxations and explanations:

For SC/ST/PH class understudies, least execution in the passing certificate with postgraduate capabilities (initial two columns) is loose from 60% to 55% (6.75 to 6.25) and Door score necessity from 300 to 200.

The necessity of capability through a national assessment (push three in Table 1) is postponed off.

For assistantship purposes applicants with MBBS capability will be viewed as proportionate to M.Tech.

For applicants with M.A. degree in English, a 5% unwinding in imprints or 0.5 relaxations in CGPA might be allowed for admission to the PhD program in Humanities and Sociologies.
