Academic Issues - Frequently asked questions

About the qualifying test

1. What is the qualifying test for the graduate programs in physics at HRI?

JEST is the qualifying exam for admissions to the M.Sc. as well as the Ph.D. programs

in physics at HRI. We also consider students who have qualified UGC-CSIR NET

About the cut-off score in JEST

1. I have appeared in JEST. Do I need to apply separately to be considered for the

graduate programs at HRI?

No, you do not have to apply separately. If you have appeared in JEST and if you are

within our cut-off score, then, you are eligible for a written test and interview for

admissions to our graduate programs.

2. I have appeared in JEST. Am I eligible to attend the written test and interview?

Qualifying JEST rank and percentile scores for HRI are put up on the main page. If your

percentile score is higher than the cut off then you have automatically qualified for HRI

3. I am within your cut-off score, but I have not indicated HRI as an option in my JEST

application. Will I be called for the test and interview at HRI?

If you are within our cut-off score, you will be eligible for the test and interview at HRI.

interview?

About travel support and accommodation to attend the written test and interview

You will be paid round trip train fare by AC-3 tier, to appear in the written test and

interview.

2. Will you provide me with accommodation during the test and interview?

No, we do not have enough accommodation on campus so please make arrangements
