A score of approximately 90 in IAT poses difficulties for entering top IISERs including Pune and Kolkata because their admission cutoff scores typically surpass 160+ in Pune and 130-140 in Kolkata. The admission process remains possible for other IISER institutions, especially when you are categorized under the reserved EWS groups (EWS cutoff: 85-105). The admission process considers total performance marks combined with available seat numbers. Regularly visit the official IISER website for both cutoff information updates and details about counseling sessions.
