Hello Aspirant,

See if you are seeking admission to Undergraduate courses offered in IISC then there are different channels such as KVPY, IIT-JEE (Main and Advanced) and NEET through which you can take entry into IISC and the institution has clearly mentioned that "Students desirous of applying to the Bachelor of Science (Research) Programme must take at least one of the above examinations."

So if you clear JEE-Main but unable to clear JEE-Advance then also you can apply through your JEE-Main score but note that you should qualify the certain eligibility criteria which you can check from the official website of IISC, which is given below :-

Hello aspirant,

As you mentioned that you want to enquire about your chances of getting admission into IISc Bangalore.

Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore was established in the year 1909 by the Indian Government. IISc was started with the joint efforts of Jamsetji Nussarwanji Tata, the Government of India and the Maharaja of Mysore.

The basic criterion for admission to IISc through JEE Mains is getting a minimum percentage of scores.

60% translating to 216/360 for general

54% translating to 195/360 for OBC-NCL

30% translating to 108/360 for SC/ST

However the cut-offs are way higher.

Year 2015:

General 325

OBC-NCL 250 -> 194

SC 220

ST 108

And everyone getting selected, regardless of category, having less than 285 marks need to attend an interview.

Year 2014:

General 295

OBC-NCL 204 -> 215 -> 196

SC 108 -> 160 -> 108

ST 108

And everyone getting selected, regardless of category, having less than 275 marks need to attend an interview.

All those satisfying the necessary cut off and scoring above the minimum marks, are guaranteed admission. Others after clearing interview can be admitted.

If the seats reserved to be filled through JEE Mains is not fully filled, there is a chance for the cut-off to be lowered during subsequent counseling sessions.

All the best
