IAT 2024 Syllabus
IISER Aptitude Test (IAT) is administered by Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research (IISER) to candidates for admission to their combined BS-MS programme. IAT is a computer-based exam that evaluates a candidate's aptitude in the following four subject areas: math, physics, biology, and chemistry.
Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) and the majority of India's state boards' class XI and XII curricula serve as the foundation for the IISER Aptitude Test's curriculum. The topics covered in the syllabus include:
