To get admission in IIST, you will have to clear Jee Advanced as this is the only way possible to get seat there whereas in IISER accepts 3 channels to provide admission KVPY, JEE ADVANCED, State or Center Board merit. Preparation tips are given below -KVPY -1.Analyse your performance and integrate your KVPY preparation with regular studies and refer to NCERT text books - KVPY aptitude test is basically a test of your fundamentals. Therefore, those who have studied NCERT study material thoroughly, cracking KVPY becomes easier. 2.Make a four-month strategy andpractice and revision as mush as you can.Also revisit question bank: avoid mistakes and start doing mock papers as well. Jee Advanced - 1. From every chapter identify one experiment as this will prepare you for comprehension and help you improve your reading skill in problem. 2. Assign a tentative timing for problem and never go for repeated reading of notes, it may help in Chemistry but not in Physics. 3. The paper timing must be most brain active timing of yours,ESSENTIALLY SYNCHRONIZE YOUR STUDY HOURS WITH EXAM TIMINGS. 4. Freshers solving last 5 year paper in stipulated time, this will help you in realizing the basic requirements. Boards - 1. Plan your schedule and note-making is an effective method also solve previous years' question papers. Understand the concepts while studying. Group study can help as studying in a group can help you to tackle those difficult areas and learn faster.
