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

For more information about IIST Trivandrum and its admission and councelling procedure do follow the link below

Because the total marks in jee advanced vary from year to year, I will state the percentage of marks required in jee advanced to gain admission to iist. It is 20% in the general category, 18% in the obc category, and 10% in the sc/st/pwd category. Although a student must get certain minimum grades in physics, chemistry, and mathematics on an individual basis.

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,

To qualify in JEE Main you must score the minimum cut off percentile specified for the category that you belong. You haven't mentioned your category. Here is the cut off percentile in JEE Main

• General: 90.3765335
• EWS: 70.2435518
• OBC-NCL: 72.8887969
• SC: 50.1760245
• ST: 39.0696101
• PWD: 0.0618524

The JEE Advanced cut off rank to get Admission in to IIST is as follows

Aeronautical Engineering

• General:775
• EWS: 172
• OBC: 473
• SC: 204

Electronics and communication engineering

• General:951
• EWS:196
• OBC: 511
• SC: 228

Dual Degree

• General:882
• EWS: 210
• OBC: 521

Thia was the cut off in 2020. You need to score a little more than previous year cut off to have decent chances of getting seat because cut off may increase or decrease depending on number of candidates appeared, difficulty of exam, top score, number of seats available etc.

Dear aspirant,

I would say that to get admission in iist irrespective of jee mains you should be focused in jee advanced more as you have to get a very a decent score in jee advanced.

In general if you are capable to go for iist Thiruvananthapuram then you should be able to score a minimum of 96.5 percentile in jee mains.

Coming to jee advanced to clear the cut off for iist a minimum of 40% in jee advanced  is required to take admission .in that college.

In the notification, its nowhere mentioned any separate qualifying marks for Droppers & Freshers. So yeah the eligibility is applicable for both the cases.
