The official test for entry to the five IISER institutions located across India is known as the IISER entrance examination. IISERs provide Five Year Integrated Masters programs in basic sciences like physics, chemistry, mathematics and biology and concludes the degrees as PhD.
The entrance examination of the IISER takes place once a year and covers the student’s knowledge of sciences and, in particular, their quantitative skills. The examination consists of a one and a half hours multiple choice question paper of about 100 questions that checks arithmetical reasoning, analytical reasoning, general awareness of science up to 12th standard level and mathematics up to 12th standard.
1. A mistake is found only in question number 5 of the Physics section and it is in the question statement. An issue with this way of displaying velocity vectors is that the diagram shown is wrong and may cause confusion among students.
2. In question answers of Chemistry section, answers to multiple questions such as Q13, Q17 and Q24 were found not to be accurate with respect to the standard reactions and chemical formulae as mentioned in the NCERT books.
3. The mathematical question Q38 of Mathematics section is quite ambiguous and two provide answer options are possible. I would like to forward it to the gurus in the subject and let the correct answer option be revealed.
4. The answer key has provided the option C for Q12 in Biology section. However, according to the latest research in the field, the statement in option B is rather closer to the truth. I would like to appeal for a resubmission of this answer.
5. All the answer options in English section Q8 have no relevant answer according to the passage or the best answer which can be deduced from the passage. Please tell them that the answer key must be rectified as required.
