So,

For IIST,

Thank you

Hii There,

Admission to undergraduate programs operates through a counseling process, with selection primarily driven by merit and adherence to the government's reservation policy.

The process begins with candidates completing online registration via the IIST website. Following the conclusion of registrations, IIST compiles an admission list. It's important to note that only those who have registered online are deemed eligible for inclusion in this list.

For BTech and BTech Dual (BTech+MS/MTech) programs, the selection hinges on the candidates' valid JEE Advanced scores and participation in the counseling round.

Hello,

Hello,

There are several ways to join ISRO as a scientist besides JEE Mains or Advanced. The fact is that ISRO directly hires students from IITs and IISC, making it simpler for you to get into ISRO if you attend one of these institutions. You would still be qualified for a position with ISRO if you studied engineering at any other reputable institution. You will need to study hard and gain the necessary information to be as productive as an IITian. To join ISRO as an engineering graduate, you must pass the admission test held by ISRO. ICRB (centralised Recruitment Board) conducts the test, and the GATE exam is also used for recruitment.

If you visit their official website, you may get a better sense of the eligibility standards and other specifications. If you didn't pass the JEE examinations, it's no issue; just get an engineering degree from a reputable university and start preparing for these entrance tests concurrently.

Good Luck!!

Hey Aspirant,

There is no separate entrance test for admission into IIST. You can get into the institute based on your JEE Advanced rank only.

Hope this is useful.

Dear aspirant!

Hope you are doing well !

Programme in Physical Sciences is through the Joint Admission Test for M.Sc. (JAM) and Joint Entrance Screening Test (JEST) followed by an interview (of those candidates who are short-listed) at IISc.

That would be challenging because applicants for the B.Tech programme at IIST must have completed senior secondary school with an average MINIMUM of 75% marks from a recognised board and must have studied Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, a language, and a different fifth topic.

The candidates selected in the course are based on the both 10+2 merits and JEE Advanced scores.
