*Asking about IISER*

Dear senior's kindly resolve/reply.

what are pros and cons upon joining iiser

Starting from

1.academic

2. Professors either kind while teaching or absolutely reverse .

3. hostel facilities i.e is it shared by how many people ? enough space ?cleanliness?

7. how is environment between senior and junior .friendly ??or unfriendly or dont care?

8. What about the cleanliness at bathrooms ?

9. Access level to labs and working with profs? Discussing research with them informally?

I was a PCM student in jee batch . Got 98.55%ile in mains getting very decent top 7 nit's ,gave advance got rank of 15.1k , gave iat got rank of 64×

I genuinley want to persue physics research but i dont have any guidance to decide the following . Please answer the questions to help me decide

1)should i compromise branch and go to iit (getting B.S chemical science,Eng Phy,metallurgy and material science etc. at gen-3 iit's )?

2)why is there such stark differnece between closing rank of iiser pune and other iiser's ?

3)would going to iiser kill/reduce chance of me getting a phD from foreign uni ?

4)can i get iiser pune ?

5)if i am not able to get iiser pune then what should i do : iit's or other iisers ?

6)what other similar branches could i do my undergraduate in that kind of run parallel to phy BS (so for eg: courses like mathematics and computing) ?

Would sincerely Appreciate any help in this matter

During the choice filling we have to enter bank details

Does the account have to be mine or can I upload my father's?

Hey, just had a doubt regarding the intro to computing course.

I do not have a laptop and won’t be able to get one anytime soon so is it possible to practice coding in the computer labs? Will they be available after class hours for students to use?

Like are there any fest at iiser pune like did any famous artist or like some event happened there??

Just wanted to see how the schedule is like. Does it change every year? Given that the curriculum is same every year.

Kindly share the image.

Also, although asking too soon doesn't make sense, but just out of curiosity, are the past papers of semesters uploaded in some cloud drive managed by library/seniors?

Lastly, if you could share the mess menu, the would be a help too.

I feel really uninterested in life, what fun(and un-fun) things should I plan to do before joining?

Does iiser p have a mma(mixed martial arts) gym.

I saw an iiser had a ring and some equipment, I think it was iiser tvm,

Does iiser pune has such facilities?

Just asking, so don't take it personally.
Are there students who practice competitive programming/C++ too?

I am not hater of science, just asking

I will most probably join IISER Pune this year and have a few questions regarding laptops:

1. Do you need to carry laptops to lecture halls or labs etc or does it always stay in the room?

2. Any minimum requirements(I know assignments mostly only require word and all but any minimum specs you would suggest)?

3. What specs pcs are available in computer labs? Can I do projects not strictly related to course work in the lab?

4. What are the most common laptops students use?

5. Suggestions...?

Edit: Thinking about majoring in math and taking ds electives

Same

Will I need to have a bank account in my own name for the admission process or can I continue with my parents'. I will open an account but I want to open one in the city of the respective iiser so I don't face problem in bank works.

I'm a IISER student from a PCB background and didn't study Maths in Classes 11–12. I'm interested in computational biology and wanted to ask:

Have PCB-only students at IISER managed the mathematics courses and gone on to do well in computational biology or related fields? Any experiences or advice would be appreciated.
