My son 93% in HSC ICSE syllabus. JEE main 94.69 percentile. General category. JEE advance not qualified, and appeared for IISER (IAT) test. Result may be on June 24. When we check the answer key got 97 for 240. We don't know that We shall get IISER. So what can we do? can we drop and prepare for IAT for IISER or can we decide to which one is available. Please suggest sir.

Ans: Sir, please note, even for Tier 2 IISER, minimum 160-170 marks required. Keeping in view your son's performance in all Entrance Exams, it is advisable to decide on which will be available for him. Had he appeared in any other Entrance Exams other than IAT | JEE such as Private Engineering Colleges' Admission Tests etc.? If yes, you can try through them or with his JEE- Main Score, you can try. Your son can go for the drop, only if he is sure that he will score above 98 percentile in JEE & 190 marks in IAT by joining a full time Coaching Center / being fully dedicated in his preparation. Else, Drop NOT advisable. And, he should appear in, minimum 5-Entrance exams other than JEE / IAT to have more options open for him to choose the most suitable one for him next yar. All The BEST for your Son's Bright Future Sundararaj Sir.
