Hello Richa yadav  ,

For IISER, Category wise class 10+2 CBSE board cutoff is :

GENERAL : 431/500

OBC-NCL : 420/500

For SCB channel, candidates have to qualify the aptitude test. After that, students will be called for counselling on the basis of cut off marks. 

The cut off percentage for SCB channel varies from state to state. As you asked for Andhra Pradesh it is somewhere around 94-95 percent.

Hope it helps.

Hello Anshu,

IISER has clearly stated its eligibility criteria for admissions:

Candidates who have passed 10+2 or equivalent level exam with science stream in 2018 or 2019 are eligible to apply for admissions. Candidates will be admitted to IISER only through following three channels.

1. Kishore Vaigyanik Protsahan Yojana (KVPY) channel
2. Joint Entrance Examination (JEE-Advanced) of the Indian Institutes of Technology
3. State and Central Boards Channel (SCB)

Hope this helps.

Hello Pooja,

If you are joining through state and central board (PCB) stream, You need to be in the top 1% of your respective board. So the cutoff percentage varies accordingly. You can check the cutoff score at the website. Cbse board is usually around 95%.

After you have cleared the cutoff score you need to give an aptitude test and qualify that too.

For admission to engineering programmes through JEE advanced channel, candidates who have secured 75% marks (GEN/EWS/OBC-NCL) or 65% marks (SC/ST/PWD) in their Class XII (or equivalent) exams are also eligible for IISER test.

Good luck!
