    hi,

    With 98 marks in IAT 2025 and being in the General EWS category, your chances of getting a seat in IISER Tirupati or IISER Thiruvananthapuram seem a bit low because usually the cutoff for these institutes is higher, especially for the EWS category. Sometimes the cutoff varies depending on

    Hi, i am a obc-ncl pwd student preparing for IAT (IISER AptitudeTest), i just want to know how many marks do i require to get any one of the IISER, personally i want IISER TVM, If anybody knows about this plz reply asap

    As an OBC-NCL PwD candidate for IISER TVM via IAT 2025, you should aim for around 100–110 marks out of 240 to have a good chance.

    Cutoffs vary yearly, but this range is generally competitive. Also, you need at least 55% in Class XII aggregate for eligibility.
