Hello Suhana,

The cutoffs vary with each category and it is mainly decided based on the number of seats available and the number of applicants every year. More than your marks your rank is what decides the admission chances. The percentile you need to have a fair chance is 90+ and for your category the previous year cutoff rank for NISER was 280 and for CEBS it was 60. A safe score in this exam is above 120.Hence you have less chance for admission.

Hi,

Physics

So while preparing for neet exam if one give other entrance exam for which the syllabus is almost same like neet it will benefit to him/her.
hcu entrance exam, ICAR ug entrance exam, IISER aptitude test all are the entrance exam for admission to undergraduate courses after class 12th. The eligibility rule to apply these courses may vary.
However if the syllabus for these exam is same as that of neet exam it will definitely help you to carck these type of entrance exam.
Hope it helps.
Hello student,
Niser stands for national institute of science education and research. And IISER stands for Indian institute of science education and research. Both are excellent institutes in the terms of academics and faculties for ug degrees.
Niser is under DAE the government of India And Iiser is under MHRD. The course structure is different totally. All of the faculties are from various NIT or IITs forgot to institutes.
In niser you can get A summer internship which is quite helpful for experience and CV. But this kind of internship unknot happen in all all IISERs.
If you have a good CGPA you can directly take admission in bhabha atomic research centre from niser. But in iiser there is not this kind of facility.
Otherwise there is no no difference between them.
So I can prepare you to niser
If you want to stay away from the headache of admission process entrance test again and again than no doubt you should go for NISER.
But if you can prepare for a competition and work hard you should definitely go for msc from iit because the environment of an iit is far better then niser and many international companies will be there to help you.
all the best
Yes sir, You can apply for jobs in ISRO,DRDO,BARC,ARDE etc after doing the dual degree BS-MS programme from IISER or NISER. You can also apply for other government research organizations . But you need to see the advertisements of that organisations because the IISER's and NISER's dont have campus placements like IIST to get jobs in these organisations.
There is no particular syllabus prescribed for General Ability section. This section might consist random questions from History, Mathematics, Geograph, Science, English, General Knowledge and Current Affairs. For Mathematics, you need to concentrate on: Numbers, HCF and LCM of Numbers, Decimal Fractions, Square Roots and Cube Roots, Average, Problems on Ages, Percentage, Profit and Loss, Ratio and Proportion, Time and Work, Pipes and Cistern, Time and Distance, Problems on Trains, Boats and Streams, Alligation, Simple and Compound Interest, Logarithms, Area, Volume and Surface areas, Calendar, Clocks, Permutation and Combinations, Probability, Reasoning, Sitting Arrangements, Blood relations and Data Interpretation at Class 10 level. So you can stick with NCERT for this.
In English section, command on your English, Grammar, Vocabulary, Understanding of the given paragraph are of more importance. Reading English NewsPaper will also help you in your preparation.
Word Power Made Easy (by Norman Lewis)
This is the go-to book to improve your vocabulary. It is not a book to be read but a book to work with daily to enrich your vocabulary.
High School Grammar and Composition( by Wren and Martin)
