Dear Aspirant,

Eligibility,

• 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, they will be considered for admissions to the degree programs only if they obtain the cut-off marks specified for their board.

SO FOR Maharashtra State Board Of Secondary And Higher Education, the cutoff for s.c category is 328/500 which is 65.6%

• SO, YES YOU ARE ELIGIBLE!!

Best of luck for your bright future

HELLO,

No marks are released for the IISER aptitude test. Hence there are no cutoffs.

You get t know only whether You are selected or not.

But according to other candidate's personal experience and the generalized question paper.

for general category student marks of about 110/180 will be good to get into IISER Pune

IISER will never disclose your marks. It will just tell you You’re selected or not. So it’s impossible to know the actual cut-off.

For IISER Pune and General Category: minimum 110/180

ANYone IISERs and General Category: minimum 70/180

SO, FOR SPECIFICALLY SC CATEGORY IF YOU SCORE AROUND 70-90 YOU CAN GET ADMISSION

THANKS.

Yes sir, You can apply for jobs in ISRO,DRDO,BARC,ARDE etc after doing  the dual degree BS-MS programme from IISER or NISER. You can also apply for other government research organizations . But you need to see the advertisements of that organisations because  the IISER's and NISER's dont have campus placements  like IIST to get jobs in these organisations.

For Mathematics, you need to concentrate on: Numbers, HCF and LCM of Numbers, Decimal Fractions, Square Roots and Cube Roots, Average, Problems on Ages, Percentage, Profit and Loss, Ratio and Proportion, Time and Work, Pipes and Cistern, Time and Distance, Problems on Trains, Boats and Streams, Alligation, Simple and Compound Interest, Logarithms, Area, Volume and Surface areas, Calendar, Clocks, Permutation and Combinations, Probability, Reasoning, Sitting Arrangements, Blood relations and Data Interpretation at Class 10 level. So you can stick with NCERT for this.
