Hello,
No, you cannot directly apply for the 3rd year at the Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research (IISER) as a lateral entry from a B.Sc. program. IISERs primarily admit students at the first-year level for their integrated BS-MS dual degree programs. They do not typically have a process for admitting students directly into the 3rd year of their programs.
If you are interested in joining IISER, you would typically need to start from the first year through their admission channels, such as:
1. Kishore Vaigyanik Protsahan Yojana (KVPY) channel.
2. Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) Advanced channel.
3. State and Central Boards Channel (SCB), which involves an aptitude test.
If you want to continue with a similar academic path at IISER, you would generally have to restart from the beginning of their integrated program. However, you could consider applying for postgraduate programs (like MS or PhD) at IISER after completing your B.Sc.
It's a good idea to check directly with the specific IISER you are interested in for any updates or exceptions to their policies.
Hope it helps !

Hello student,
If you haven't taken the JEE (Joint Entrance Examination) but have appeared for the IISER Aptitude Test, you won't be eligible for admission to IITs (Indian Institutes of Technology) or NITs (National Institutes of Technology) because these institutions primarily admit students based on their JEE Main and JEE Advanced scores.
However, your IISER Aptitude Test score can be used for admission to IISERs (Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research), which are prestigious institutions focused on science education and research. If you're specifically looking to join IIT or NIT, you would need to take the JEE exams in the future.
I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries then feel free to share your questions with us we will be happy to assist you.
Thank you and wishing you all the best for your bright future.

Hello student
Congratulations on your IAT exam rank!
With a rank of 1736 and belonging to the SC category, your chances of getting admission to an IISER (Indian Institute of Science Education and Research) are good. Here's a general idea of the admission possibilities:
- _IISER Admission*: IISERs have a separate admission channel for SC/ST/PwD candidates, with a relaxed cutoff.
- _Category-wise cutoffs*: In 2022, the cutoff ranks for SC category students were:
- IISER Berhampur: 2000-2500
- IISER Bhopal: 2200-2800
- IISER Kolkata: 1800-2300
- IISER Mohali: 1500-2000
- IISER Pune: 2000-2500
- IISER Thiruvananthapuram: 2500-3000
- _Seat availability*: IISERs have a limited number of seats reserved for SC category students.
Considering your rank and category, you have a good chance of getting admission to:
- IISER Kolkata
- IISER Mohali
- Possibly IISER Berhampur or IISER Bhopal
However, please note that:
- Cutoffs may vary from year to year.
- Admission processes and seat allotment are subject to change.
- Other factors like your preference list and availability of seats in your preferred IISERs will also influence the admission outcome.
To confirm your admission chances, I recommend:
- Checking the official IISER websites for the latest admission updates.
- Contacting the IISER admission offices for category-wise cutoffs and seat availability.
- Preparing for the counseling process and seat allotment.
No, students typically wouldn't receive bonus marks for incorrect questions in the IISER Aptitude Test (IAT) even if the question was found to be incorrect, and even if they didn't file an objection form.
The IISERs usually don't award bonus marks for incorrect questions. Their primary focus is on evaluating a candidate's understanding and performance based on the correct answers they provide.
Awarding bonus marks for incorrect questions could potentially disrupt the standardized scoring process and create an unfair advantage for some students who might have guessed the wrong answer for the incorrect question. The objection window exists to allow candidates to challenge questions they believe are incorrect. If the IISERs acknowledge a question as flawed, they might consider removing it from the evaluation process altogether. This would benefit all test-takers who attempted that question.
