NISER Bhubaneswar All Questions

Tata Institute of Fundamental Research is good college for BSc + MSc. It also undertakes innovative research in various field. The TIFR Campus in Pune has National Center for Radio Astrophysics.

Delhi University also offers BSc and MSc in physics. And is ranked 7th.

The previous year minimum admissible score for NEST exam was 108 i.e 90% of section wise minimum cutoff marks.

If you see the trend, they keep the cutoff marks always to be 45% of the total marks.

For example, it was 90 marks in 2016 when the total marks was 200 and it was 81 marks in 2017 when the total marks was 180.

As they vary the total marks of the examination between 180–240 so expect the cutoff to be between 80–110 marks.

But in my opinion it shouldn't bother you much as just clearing the cutoff will do you no good. Getting a seat all depends on your rank. Get a rank below 700 and you have a chance to get admitted to NISER. This would need a score of around 50–55%.

Good luck for your exams :)

Dear Tithi

I would start with saying that your seniors and your teachers at NISER School of Biological Sciences (SBS) are the best people to guide you here.

Besides that, given that MSc at NISER SBS is an integrated degree, developing critical thinking abilities is pertinent to excel. You can read some basic books to develop your basics (if you need some work there). There would be some suggested readings for your course given by NISER, you can explore them. Also, you can use portals like Jstor, Science Direct, etc. and read some research papers which interest you or relevant to the project you are working on.

A combination of these all will help you give the right start to your studies. Remember that as much it is about choosing the right material to study, it is as much about just beginning the process.

To generate interest in the subject, you may explore the following suggestions as given by other students: Time, Love and Money by Jonathan Weiner (for molecular biology), Virolution by Frank Ryan, A life decoded by Craig Venter (by godfather of synthetic biology), Bad Pharma/Bad Science by Ben Goldacre (which a student suggest that should be a compulsory reading for all medical researchers), etc.

Finally, if you are looking to ask particular problems or exact study books, you can also ask your question by clicking on the orange "Ask a Question" button on this website- AskQuestions to Experts@EntranceCorner . Here the subject experts will answer your preparation related questions and individual technical queries.

Hope it will help.

All the best!

Hello Indulekha,

Its good if your score is above the cut off marks. But I am sorry everyone scoring above the cut off score does not get admissions.

There's a counseling process, where you need to register yourself and go for document verification and if you pass the counseling procedure, then you can get admission in the college. 

Hope this helps, thank you

All the best
