IIST JEE Advanced Cutoff 2025: The IIST JEE Advanced cutoff is based on JEE Advanced percentage. Unlike JoSAA, where the JEE Advanced cutoff is the opening and closing rank, IIST admits based on JEE Advanced percentage. The IIST JEE Advanced cutoff is at least 14% marks in aggregate and at least 3% marks in each of the three subjects (Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics) for general category candidates. The EWS/ OBC-NCL candidates need at least 12.6% marks in aggregate and at least 2.7% marks in each of the three subjects, and 7% marks in aggregate and at least 1.5% marks in each of the three subjects for the SC/ ST/ PD candidates.

IIST admission criteria require the candidates to appear for the Joint Entrance Examination Main conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA), to qualify themselves to appear for the Joint Entrance Examination (Advanced) conducted by IITs. Further, to be eligible for admission to IIST, candidates must have secured the minimum prescribed marks in JEE Advanced. In this article, candidates can check the IIST JEE Advanced cutoff marks needed for admission. Other than the minimum marks needed for admission, candidates must also check the minimum IIST admission eligibility requirements below on this page.
