Hello kiranveer!!! 

Your percentage of PCB class 12 is very good. This shows that you are a hard working student and you have a good command on PCB. 

Talking about IISER, a student must be excellent at mathematics to clear this exam. There is a vast syllabus of mathematics after class 10th. So, you have skipped a major part which will prove to be a difficult task to cover up. 

Hence, it is quite not possible to clear it without maths. 

Your maths should be strong enough to clear this level of exam. 

If you really wish to crack this exam, then start learning the formulas from NCERT. Atleast, you will be able to solve formula based questions. Try to score maximum possible score in maths. 

Give more time on solving chem, physics and bio. You should be more inclined towards these subjects. 

Get a decent overall score. 

All the best!!!

Hi!
   First of all, congratulations for your percentage. Nothing is impossible. It is ok if u didn't have maths in your class 12. All you need to have is a bit of knowledge in mathematics and you should be strong with the basics. That will help you to clear your IISER examinations. IISER syllabus includes topics from physics, chemistry, mathematics, and biology. A good plan of action is required to crack the examination. For that you should regularly practice Questions, refer previous year question papers.
Refer NCERT and standard Arihant books for a good score. These books can help you boost up your score.
The question paper consists of 60 questions which has 15 questions in each section and for each section the time duration is 45 minutes. Time management in important to score good marks.
All the best!
