What Do the Round 5 Cutoffs Indicate?

The Round 5 closing ranks show the last rank at which a seat was allotted for each IISER and programme. These cutoffs can help candidates understand how much movement has taken place since earlier counselling rounds.

Seats at highly preferred campuses and programmes may fill quickly, while vacancies can emerge in later rounds when candidates withdraw or choose other institutions. Candidates should rely on the official Round 5 closing-rank data rather than assumptions about seat availability.
