Hi

No, a dropper is not eligible for KVPY.

This is because, .

Class 12th passed student are eligible for Stream SB of kvpy but only when they are in the 1st year of undergraduate program in Basic Sciences namely Physics or Chemistry or Mathematics or Biology leading to B.Sc./B.S./B.Stat./B.Math./Int. M.Sc./Int. M.S.

As as you are dropper, you are not enrolled in 1st year of Basic sciences and thus not eligible .

For your reference,

KVPY eligibility criteria is given below:-

Hi,

No. JEE can open doors for admission into IITs, NITs, IIITs and other centrally funded institutes . KVPY is a gateway for admission into top research institutes. Aspirants who wish to pursue pure sciences can get into prestigious research colleges like IISc and IISER.

You need to realise that you are getting a brilliant opportunity to contribute towards general science in our country. If you are serious about IIT then no problem prepare for JEE Mains and Advanced. But if you are not interested in general science then you should not have appeared for KVPY in the first place. It is because of such kind of people (not necessarily you) that general science enthusiasts don't get a chance to contribute towards the country.

It is high time JEE aspirants realised that KVPY and such exams are not part of the JEE race as a whole. We need to understand and be aware that KVPY rank becomes useless once you enter IIT. However it would have been useful if you didn't appear and gave the rank to a real science enthusiast.

KVPY serves as a confidence booster and opens new opportunities to join research programs. Applicants have a greater chance of getting into IISc and IISERs through KVPY than JEE. After clearing the KVPY examination, students can get direct admission into top institutes like IISc and the various IISER's. If students want to be a part of IISc, they must appear for KVPY as the cutoff for admissions into IISc JEE Mains/JEE Advanced/ NEET is really high.

Hope this helps.

Good luck.

Hello aspirant,

Important themes from 11th-grade disciplines including as physics, chemistry, biology, and mathematics are included in the KVPY SA syllabus 2021. To get the best results, finish the KVPY curriculum 2021-22 as soon as possible. NCERT books are the finest source for a wide range of questions to answer as well as the entire KVPY exam syllabus.

In this section, there will be 80 questions separated into two parts: part 1 and part 2.

Hi,

KVPY Eligibility includes age criteria, citizenship, and academic criteria for each stream. The minimum age required to apply for the SA stream is 16 years. The lower age limit for the SX stream is 17 years. The candidates who apply for the SB stream must be 18 years old.

• SA: Students enrolled in 11th standard will undergo this stream.
• SX: Students enrolled in 12th standard will have to apply under SX stream.
• SB: Students enrolled in 1st year in basic science will go under this stream.

There are 3 streams under which fellowships are granted. The details of these streams are mentioned below :-

SA-

This stream is for students enrolled in 11th Standard (Science Subjects) in the current year. They must have a minimum of 80% (70% for SC/ST/PWD) marks in aggregate in Mathematics and Science Subjects in 10th Standard Board Examination. The fellowship of the students selected under this stream gets activated only when they join an undergraduate course in Basic Sciences (B.Sc./B.S./B.Stat./B.Math./Int. M.Sc./M.S.) after passing 12th (within 2 years of passing 10th). Also they should secure a minimum of 60% (50% for SC/ST/PWD) marks in aggregate in Science subjects in the 12th Board Examination. During the interim period of one year, selected students are invited for Regional/National (Vijyoshi) Science Camp and their travel and other related expenses are met by KVPY.

Stream SX:

This stream is for Students enrolled in 12th Standard (Science subjects) during the current year and aspiring to join an Undergraduate program in Basic Sciences (B.Sc./B.S./B.Stat./B.Math./Int. M.Sc./M.S.) in the next year. They should secure a minimum of 80% (70% for SC/ST/PWD) marks in aggregate in MATHEMATICS and SCIENCE subjects (Physics/Chemistry/Biology) in the 10th Standard Board Examination and a minimum of 60% (50% for SC/ST/PWD) marks in aggregate in SCIENCE subjects (Physics/Chemistry/Biology) in the 12th standard Board Examination.

Stream SB:

This stream is for students enrolled in the 1st year of an Undergraduate program (B.Sc./B.S./B.Stat./B.Math./Int. M.Sc./M.S.) in the current academic year. They should have secured a minimum of 60% (50% for SC/ST/PWD) marks in aggregate in SCIENCE subjects (Physics/Chemistry/Biology/Mathematics) in the 12th Standard Board Examination. They must secure 60% (50% for SC/ST/PWD) marks in the 1st year final examination of B.Sc./B.S./B.Math./B.Stat./Int. M.Sc./M.S before taking up the fellowship, if awarded.

Hope this helps.

All the best.
