Hi,
If we look at comparative analysis of IIST and IITH then I'd say that IIST is better for a narrow field of area ie astrophysics due to the following reasons
  • Selective field: IIST is more focused on space science which also allines with your interest in astrophysics, IIST is newer and has well equipped labs at par with older IITs
  • Placements: if you look at the placements then simply put IITs generally get better placements, but IIST being a new colleges get lesser visits from companies.
  • Core: if you r intrested in more theory and science then you should go for IIST but if you are more interested in technology, engineering and placements then go for IITH

Hello

Even if your marks in Maths exam is low but if your aggregate is 75 % or more than you don't need to worry at all dear .

This is because as per eligibility criteria of IIST , a general category student needs at least 75% aggregate marks in class 12 board examination, while it is only 65 % required for sc , st , PwD students. Subjects you need to consider for calculating percentage are :-

  • Physics
  • Chemistry
  • Mathematics
  • A language
  • Any subject
