IISER TVM All Questions

Hello,

No there is no integrated course like Integrated M.Sc. for Zoology in IISER Thiruvananthapuram. If you are doing B.Sc. now, after completion of Bachelors you can do Integrated PhD (I.PhD) at IISERs. I.PhD involve MS and PhD. This is for 7 years divided into 14 semesters. MS will be in Biology only and not Zoology. But MS syllabus contains most area of biology. Also there is no option to exit after having MS.

Another option is to do PhD at IISERs after doing your Masters. The entry to IISER Thiruvananthapuram for I.PhD is through any of the three exams like JGEEBILS, JAM BL/BT papers, IISER Test. Then shortlisting occurs for interview which go through two rounds. According to me doing I.PhD is better because it give you experience to do PhD in an institute where you study for two years. It give you much help while you choose your guide rather than going for PhD to a new institute where you do not know about the faculties well.

Hello,

You cannot do Integrated MSc. in Zoology at IISER Thiruvananthapuram. All IISERs provide BS-MS programme. The programme is provided such that you should study biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics and a little humanities for first three years. Then from the fourth year you can select Major. Major is for two years. If you are interested in Zoology, you can choose Biology as Major.

BS-MS is mainly for students who are passionate about research. If you are not about to turn to research you can select B.Sc. for three years and then go for M.Sc. for two years in Zoology or any other course that you are interested in.

Hey Sagnik,

Since you haven't mentioned your state, I would state that your board percentage is enough to qualify for IISer in any state except Telangana, Kerala, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu. That being said, the cutoffs of these states lie on the line, so you may or may not qualify.

If you qualify, then with your marks you can easily expect any IISER except Kolkata and Pune.

Best of luck.

IISER that is, Indian Institute of Science Engineering and Research is a very reputed college throughout India and you can apply for this college only if your category or general rank is under 10000. You can try for the newer IISERs like

Behrampur

Tirupati 

Tiruvananthpuram

Bhopal and 

Mohali 

Best of luck 

If you are in general category, you have to score a rank below 10k to get into any IISER. For IISER pune, you have to score around 6k.

But if you are OBCNC, SC, ST or PD , then your category rank should be within 10k, inorder to join IISER.

hello candidate 

based on your rank you will not get iiser pune but you may try for bhopal,mohali as the cutoff goes till 10000 general rank which can be compared to 3000 sc rank

Hello student,

There is an eligible criteria to qualify IAT and get admission in IISER. It is as, you must have rank with in 10,000 in common rank list if you are of general category. But if you are of any of reserved category(OBC that you have mentioned) then you must have rank within 1000 in reserved category list. Also, you must have at least 55% in 10+2 or equivalent exam. 

 I hope this will help you

Actually, the IISER do not post the cutoff or some sort of merit list. They just tell that whether you are in or out so it is difficult to tell the cutoff.

However, with this score, you have a good chance of getting in the IISER. Still, you have to wait till the last round as the cutoff for the IISERs is close to 70.

For more information about the IAT, its seats and cutoffs, you can go for the below link:

Bet of luck!

Your score I don't think is high enough for old IISERs even by the last round. 

I suggest you try for the new IISERs or take admission in any other private college. But if you are determined to crack IAT again take a drop prepare for another year and go for it.

Do participate in the counselling sessions regardless
