Hello Priyajit. You mentioned you belong to GEN-EWS category and that you want to know whether you may get admission in IISER, Kolkata on the basis of your JEE Advanced result.

Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER) intakes applicants on the basis of either of the three channels/mediums -

  • SCB Channel - based on 10+2 board results + result of IISER Aptitude Test
  • KVPY Channel - based on 10+2 board results + valid KVPY fellowship
  • JEE Advanced Channel - based on 10+2 board results + JEE Advanced result.

General category candidates must secure an Overall AIR within 10000 in the Common Rank List (CRL) of JEE Advanced 2021 while the Category Rank of Reserved Category candidates (OBC-NCL, SC, ST, PwD), should be within 10000.

You mentioned your CRL-AIR is 9682 as well as your Category Rank is 1157. You should worry less as you are going to have good window of opportunity to get admission at any branch of IISER (including IISER Kolkata). Joint Action Committee and  IISER Thiruvananthapuram will release the merit list and cutoff of IISER 2021 for IISER admission 2021.

To know your chances of getting into Indian Institutes of Technologies, to analyze and identify the best colleges & courses you can get based on your rank for Engineering as well as to get your JEE Advanced personalised report delivered on mail, I encourage you to use JEE Advanced 2021 College Predictor:

Thank you and all the very best!

Thank you for encouraging me. Can you please share the previous year cut off of IISER Kolkata? Not other IISER, but only IISER Kolkata for EWS category. I will be very grateful to you.
