Hi Sidhant,
JEE marks are not necessary to get into IISERs.
There are three ways-
1. JEE Mains exam and JEE Advanced exam (Top 10,000).
3. KVPY qualifiers can apply for 25 to 50 % of the seats.
4. There is an exam for which Board marks are the cut-off. There is an exam taken by IISER.
Same is for IISc and there is NISER Bhubaneswar, which a lot of people don't know about. -
For admission to IISER, you need valid JEE Advanced scores. Candidates with JEE Advanced scores are offered direct admission and don't have to appear in any entrance exam.
However, JEE Mains candidates are not eligible for admission at the institute. If you have JEE Mains score, the best thing to do would be to explore the other two routes of admission at the institute:
1. Kishore Vaigyanik Protsahan Yojana (KVPY)- Under this scheme, you can seek admission if you have valid KVPY fellowship.
2. State and Central Boards Channel (SCB) channel- If you opt for this channel, you have to appear in an aptitude test.
