Hello aspirant...

As you've asked about IIST Trivandrum, I would like to tell you that every year cutoff varies so it's not easy to tell exactly whether you will get a seat or not by scoring marks you mentioned above in your question.

Also looks like you've missed important details like from which category you belong to ? and  about which branch you are talking about..

But by looking at cutoff of 2019 for IIST Trivandrum it seems a bit difficult to get a seat with 120 marks if you belong to general category.

If you belong to OBC/SC/ST then it'll be a different situation.

There is also eligibility cutoff for admission into just Trivandrum for different categories.

Why are you limiting your marks ??, If you are really a serious aspirant and dedicated to achieve your goal then you shouldn't think like this .Your focus should be always to give your best and score as much marks as you can.

Please go through the link below to get more details about cutoff..

Hey Prashant,

For getting admission into Indian Institute of Space, Science And Technology (IIST), there are two exams - JEE Advanced and IIST Ranks.

In SC category, your rank is 150 so based on previous years IIST Cut-offs, you might get 4- Year B.TECH program in Electronics and Commnuncation Engineering with specialisation in Avionics, where the previous year Opening rank was 108 and the Closing rank was 176. So, if you are really interested in Space and Technology, you should must apply for the college, as it is one of the best college for Space and Technology in the Country.

Hope that you have got your answer!!



I believe you should prefer IIEST Shibpur CSE over IIIT Kota. IIIT Kota is a newer institution compared to IIEST Shibpur and lacks experience in faculty and research. On the other hand IIEST has excellent Infrastructute, Faculty and Research facilities as well as a very good outlook. More than 85% of the CSE Batch is placed annually with a median package of 11-13 LPA. Companies like Microsoft, Amazon , Infosys, Wipro, TCS, Goldman Sachs, L&T Infotech, Accolite software, Optum, Cognizant are some of the top recruiters at IIEST CSE.

Besides this a large chunk of IIEST Alumini are settled in the United States and are excellent researchers and professionals. No wonder students get motivated and many pursue their Masters or Doctoral Degree from US or higher technical institutes like IIT or IISc post graduation. IIEST has excellent college culture, competitive peer environment as well as peaceful campus life.

Hi Aspirant!

According to official information provided by Indian Institute of Space Science student can take admission only through the JEE ADVANCED and futher counseling.Hence there is no other way from which you can apply for the admission in Indian Institute of Space Science Trivandrum.

I hope it helps.

As far as Electronics, Aerospace or Avionics courses are concerned, you shouldnt have a doubt on the excellent Faculty, Research Facilities and Infrastructure.

As far as Placement are concerned, ISRO is by large the organization which recruits more than 60% of the IIST Batch each year on basis of merit as well as interview process. So if you have interest in Space Science, Rocket Design and Avionics and want to contribute to public research organizations like ISRO, BARC and DRDO, IIST Trivandrum is the best place.

Otherwise, Placement opportunities at IIST are bleak and the institute doesnt have a proper Placement Cell. However few notable MnCs like Airbus, Boeing, L&T Infotech, TCS, Infosys, Accenture and Wipro do visit the campus and recruit students for IT/Software/Design/Engineering Operations. Many IIST students also move to US universities and Higher Technical Institutes like IISc and Top IITs to pursue their Masters or Doctoral education. All the Best.

Dear Rajesh,

Both IITs and IIST are better than most of the colleges including most of the NITs and IISTs. For me IIST is more academic oriented institute in India in comparative to any other colleges whereas  IITs as everybody knows best college in India, actually IITs are best not due to it's academic part but due to the other half of the college life which is missing in IIST.

In my opinion if you are research oriented and you need a better job security then go for IIST and if you want a better job and a better experience of college life then go for IIT.

Good Luck !!!!
