IISER would be a very good option if you are interested in pure sciences and I really think if you want BS you need not go abroad. IISER and IISC would be really good. Though you can go for PhD in any good country you like. As for the preparation, jee advanced preparation would be great as you will have enough time to prepare for it and might get iiser is you rank within 10,000. However, if you do choose to prepare only for jee main, you might get iisc bangalore (at a very high score though) and engineering as well.

Also, for iiser there are two more ways of getting in-

1. Kvpy (one of the most reputed scholarship examinations)- need to have good rank in it.
2. Scb (only top 1%of board students are allowed) - 50%of the seats at iiser are alloted through the IAT exam they conduct.

Hope you decide what's best for you!

All the best for the future!

It varies year to year. Also it depends on number of candidates opting for IISER as their first choice.

Hello Devendra Yadav. Thanks for contacting Careers360 and we hope we will be able to answer your query. 

Note that the IISERs are among the few academic institutions in the country that accept JEE Advanced scores for admissions other than the IITs. So, obviously the level of input you would have to put into your preparation is very high. 

The eligibility criteria on the basis of Advanced ranks is as follows:

• Candidates in General category securing a rank within 10000 in the Common Rank List (CRL) of JEE Advanced 2018 are eligible to apply.
• For candidates belonging to reserved category (OBCNC, SC, ST, PD), their category rank should be within 10000.

I would like to direct your attention to this Careers360 article for upto date information on the cutoffs for the IISERs:

GOOD LUCK

The Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research ( IISERs ), are a group of premier science education and research institutes in India. These institutions have been declared by an Act of Parliament as institutions of national importance , and are intended to be the leading institutes in the country in the field of basic sciences.

the concerned board releases the top students' list you can check through that if not possible you can write it to the chairman with a feasible reason and ask for the rank list.

if all the above fails just file an RTI application all will be done all

the best !!!!!!!!!

The IISERs are among India's top engineering institutions. The BS-MS Programme is for 5 years which is basically a very good option for students who want to grow as a scientist in their life. Apart from being a scientist:

1) jobs in private sectors ( MNC's like google, facebook, Philips etc) 

2) Civil Services (IAS, PCS etc)

3) research and development 

4) other govt sectors ( railways, income tax etc) 

5) banking

6) Since it is a research course there are plenty of opportunities in abroad 

7) work as a teacher/professor

8) can go for Ph.D 

Note: Since this course is research oriented so the career opportunities are endless.
