A brief review of IISER Bhopal

Likes

College Infra is very good, we have good hostels, libraries, mess, lecture halls, etc.
Sports Facility is very good and impressive, Crowd here is very diverse and comes from all over india.
There is always something happening, you will never get bored here

Dislikes

College itself doesnt give any placement guarantee, no or very few companies visit the campus and students are expected to go off campus to get jobs and placement.
Course is tough and academically rigorous, many students will fail to like the curriculum here.
Mess food can be bad sometimes though not always, but it is average and cannot be said to be very good

Admission:

I didnt applied to many other colleges, I wanted what this college provided, and got here. The course and faculties, the exposure and Insights we get here was very promising to me. Students can get here by applying to IISER Admission Test (IAT), form of which is released every year in April May. As the demand for such colleges is ever increasing, cutoff are predicted to go higher each passing year.

College Campus is very good. Clean and well maintained. Hostels are good. There are multiple dining places in campus.
Faculty is helpful and professional, well versed with their field, and generally well experienced from abroad.
Get to meet people from various fields and experiences, from other universities and countries. Academic events are frequent.

Dislikes

Many things in campus are still under construction.

Admission:

Wanted to get a research oriented college because that was the ultimate goal. Applied to various research colleges, including other IISER's. WOuld have prefered IISER Pune as it was closer to home, but didnt get enough marks in the entrance exam All IISERs take admissions through the IISER APTITUDE TEST (IAT), seats are assigned based on rank and preference,eligilibty is 60% in board 12th exams.

My thoughts on IISERB

Likes

I absolutely love the fact that the campus is highly maintained and full of lush greenery.
the faculty we have here are extremely qualified individuals, having PhDs and multiple Post Docs in prestigious foreign universities.
the seniors here are very chill and helpful, therefore we have zero ragging culture here.

Dislikes

the first semester usually starts a month later than it's supposed to be and thus, the entire syllabus of 4 months is clamped up in 3 months, making it extremely hectic, especially for someone who just started their college life.
the campus is very far away from any urban centre because of which, there's no public transport other than super expensive auto rickshaw from here to Bhopal.
the number of restaurant options are very limited, especially after it's too dark, only a vending machine can save you. We had a night canteen before but it's closed now.

Admission:

I was interested in Physics from the very beginning of my JEE prep but had no idea that IISERs even exist and thought that if I want to study physics at the best possible level in India, IIT was the way. So I naturally aimed for it but I guess I didn't work hard enough and in the end, I failed to make it there. I only started exploring other options after my JEE attempt when I came accross IAT 2024 registration form. I then researched about IISERs and concluded that this is also a good option for my goal and decided to study properly for then next 20 days (amount of time that was left for my IAT attempt). Finally, I got in.

IISERB review by a fresher

Likes

The campus is beautiful, and sports facilities are really good
The professors are great at their subjects, most of them are chill and very approachable
Labs and research facilities are also great, enough for any undergraduate to do whatever he wants

Dislikes

75% Attendance criteria is enforced, you can get by with slightly lesser attendance but that is a hassle
College itself has all the facilities but as it's far from main city, the cost of transport adds up each time you want to go there

Admission:

I applied to other misers but chose this one as it has better campus life are almost similar across all of them, admissions happen through IISER APTITUDE TEST, where we can get these colleges based on our ranks.

Likes

Lab Facilities and their quality. Top-grade equipments are provided.
Campus Life. There are many activities and events happening, resulting in a very lively campus.
Junior-Senior Interactions. There is no ragging on campus, and seniors are very helpful and not authority exerting.

Dislikes

Nothing at all! Except that the fests aren't as large as some other colleges'

Student Snaps:

Admission:

This was my dream college so I didn't apply for other colleges. I chose specifically IISER Bhopal over other IISERs as I felt it was the best for my probable line of future pursuit, chemistry. Also I liked the campus. Admissions are taken only from IISER Aptitude Test(IAT). Cutoffs for GEN are around 5000-6000 rank. Admission process is pretty smooth, although sometimes bit delayed.

The Place for your enthusiasm in Science

Likes

The campus is great, 250 acres around. It is still developing but is mostly already fine. The curriculum is nice and research focused. It also focuses on student's overall development and helps building a scientific mind while also being conscious.
Was quite smooth to fit in here. The seniors are nice. There is no ragging scene and a strict anti-ragging cell.
As this is a research institute, IISER Bhopal does not have a significant number of students getting placed into companies from natural sciences. However, there is a good number of Ph.D. placements made from here.

Dislikes

There is no night canteen and both the market complex and everything to shop closes before 12am. only vending machine left in some hostels and that too empty at night mostly.
many students come here choosing this as a backup which ruins the quality of peers sometimes.

Student Snaps:

Admission:

I applied for IISc but couldn't get it. I cleared JEE Main and Advanced and was getting good engineering colleges as well but wanted to pursue basic sciences. I was getting good pvt colleges as well. Overall, my interests were aligned to research.
