Question by Ankita on Jun 11, 2025

I scored 123 marks in IAT ...which IISER I can get

Ans: Ankita, With your IAT score of 123 marks, you have viable admission prospects at several IISER institutes, though primarily at mid-tier and newer campuses rather than the most competitive ones like IISER Pune or Kolkata . Your score of 123 places you in the expected rank range of 200-1700, with most sources indicating ranks between 500-1700 for this score range . IISER Tirupati emerges as your strongest prospect with expected cutoff ranging from 115-125 marks for general category, where your score of 123 falls comfortably above the threshold . IISER Berhampur offers excellent opportunities with cutoff expectations of 105-120 marks, making admission highly probable . IISER Thiruvananthapuram presents good chances with expected cutoff of 105-130 marks for general category . For IISER Bhopal and IISER Mohali, admission remains possible but competitive as cutoffs range from 130-145 marks, placing your score slightly below the expected threshold . IISER Pune (cutoff 150-175) and IISER Kolkata (cutoff 140-160) would be challenging with your current score . Historical data from 2024 shows that candidates with similar scores secured admission at newer IISERs through multiple counseling rounds . Recommendation: Target IISER Tirupati, IISER Berhampur, and IISER Thiruvananthapuram as primary choices for strong admission prospects, while applying to IISER Bhopal and Mohali as reach options, ensuring participation in all counseling rounds to maximize admission opportunities. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!
