ISI B.Stat / B.Math cutoffs
Historical cutoffs are a guide, not a prediction. Use them to set a realistic target, not to predict next year's exact number.
Selection — approximate (final round of B.Stat / B.Math, 2024)
ISI does NOT publish numerical cutoffs. Selection is based on holistic evaluation of the written + interview. Conversion rate ~0.4% (1 in 250).

Takeaways for prep planning
- ISI is the closest UG math entrance to the IMO style — proof-heavy, deeply conceptual, no shortcut formulas.
- Standard JEE prep covers ~30% of ISI depth. Add olympiad-style problem solving (Pranesachar, Engel) and Spivak's Calculus.
- Interview is conducted by ISI faculty — they probe foundational understanding, not memorised theorems.
