Can a student with chemistry, biology, math in 12th class can be eligible for NISER and IISER admission ?
Ans: Saraswati, Yes, you are fully eligible for admission to both NISER and IISER. Both institutes clearly accept students with chemistry, biology, and math (CBM) backgrounds. For IISER (through the IAT), eligibility requires that candidates have taken at least three subjects from Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Biology in Class 12. Since you have three of these, you qualify perfectly. Just keep in mind that physics is mandatory if you want to apply for the 4-year B.Tech or economic sciences programs at IISER Bhopal. For NISER (through NEST), the rules state that candidates must have studied at least three of these subjects—physics, chemistry, mathematics, and biology—in classes 11 and 12, which your combination fulfills completely. All the Best for Your Prosperous Future!
