For IPhD in IISER you should have 6.0 CGPA or 55% marks in your bachelors. Now mainly the students are shortlisted on the basis of JEST and JAM ranks (as per the official website of IISER PUNE). Its specified that the rank of the student must be better than 500 in JAM or JEST.

*You should visit the official websites for more info.

I hope my answer helps. All the very best for your future endeavors!

greetings,

the payment failed and the money was already debited, this money in transit will be refunded to you but it will take time, a couple days at most Do not wait for the refund and make another payment if you can because as far as the IISER portal is concerned, your transaction failed and they have yet to receive the money to be able to generate the receipt.

good luck

Hello,

There is no information regarding the sixth round of counselling for admission in IISR through State and Central Boards Channel (SCB) channel. The Fifth special round has not yet ended and will end at 11:55 P.M tonight.  This round is for postponed special round candidates( dated 23-26, Nov 2020) and for the candidates who float from the previous rounds.

According to the IISER, SCB Channel has given the following criteria on it's website-

SCB Channel

1. Students who have passed 10+2 level with science stream in 2019 or 2020 are eligible to apply for admissions and appear for IAT 2020.

However, you will be considered for admissions to the degree programmes only if you obtain the cut-off marks specified for your board.

2. Students applying through SCB channel will have to appear in the IISER Aptitude Test (IAT) which will be conducted at various centres across the country.

So if you have your 10+2 from NIOS then you can be considered as NIOS is also a recognized board.

It states that students who are coming to get admission through KVPY channel should also have got the board through which students have given board exam and category-wise IISER cutoff. Because many students give KVPY exam while they are studying in 11th nd 12th and they qualify and after that if the don't get the required marks in board exam as given by the IISER officials so they cannot get admission if they don't meet the cutoff according to officials

First step to become a astrophysicist is to take up the most suitable UG course, which would be BS-MS integrated Physics at IISERs or IACS, or BS Physical sciences at IISc or Integrated MSc Physical sciences at NISER or CEBS. After completing of your BS-MS course, you can go for Integrated PhD or M.Tech in astrophysics directly in IISERs/IACS/IITs itself or universities abroad. You can get into top institutions in India for astrophysics by qualifying in JEST or GATE. Some best colleges for MSc Astrophysics in India are:-
