Hello candidate,

First of all, I want to know that the exam needed for getting admission into Indian Institute of Science and Technology (IIST) is JEE advanced.

The cutoff for the college and depends on the difficulty level of the paper, so if the paper is easy average cutoff would be around 200 marks. If the question paper is difficult, then the average cutoff would be around 140 marks.

Use the link https://www.google.com/amp/s/engineering.careers360.com/articles/iist-btech-cutoff/amp for more details.

Hope it helps!!

hi,

the both of the institute you have mentioned is excellent for its academic curriculum, college infrastructure, faculty students ratio, research opportunity, excellent labs and exposure for international internship. there is many notable alumni you may have heard of, who has completed their bachelors from iit kanpur or  Indian institute of space   science and technology. however based on the students review I would prefer to IIST for aerospace engineering since it is well connected with ISRO, which gives the opportunity for students to real time practical experience while studying the bachelors courses.

Hello candidate,

There is no compulsion for wearing shoes inside the IIST Campus or during the lecture hours in the classroom.

But shoes are the decent uniform which you should wear during formal classes and during registration time, it creates a good impression on the official and the instructor as well.

Shoes are also mandatory during laboratory classes.

Be comfortable!!

Stay Safe. Have a good day.

Yes as far as Undergraduate Admissions are concerned, IIST does have its own UG Admission Test besides accepting JEE Advanced Rank and Score for Admission Purposes. You can opt for either of them as per your convenience

Hello candidate,

Coming onto your first Questions, in order to become a scientist at ISRO you need to have a graduation degree at least with 50% minimum marks from any recognised college and then have to attend the ISRO entrance qualifying examination for further procedures.

The Second question of to select which course in IIST, it pretty much depends on on the score and the rank you have Scored in JEE advanced that whether you are eligible for B-Tech course or for integrated 5 Year Course.

Hope it helps!!

Hello candidate,

IIST admission on the candidate qualifying JEE Advanced and falling within the closing ranks for the general cutoff off IIST, for which he should have Physics, Chemistry, and mathematics as three compulsory subjects.

If you talk about NEET examination, you need to have Physics, Chemistry, and Biology as three subjects which are compulsory. So if you have pursued your class 12th examinations in Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics, and any other optional subject then you are surely eligible to take admission into IIST after NEET results, but provided you have qualified JEE advanced examination with the necessary marks.

Have a good day!!
