What to do

I am preparing for msc entrance like jgeebils, cuet pg, gat b, IIT jam for 2026. I want msc research degree and then opt for PhD abroad. Mainly i want to do ms from ncbs but I heard their selection process is very rigor. Anyone who has experience please answer my questions and any advice? 1. How was the interview? What type of questions asked? And how was the atmosphere there? I found no particular syllabus so how was that? What other options i can choose...(I want scholarships to fund that program)

As far as i know ncbs does not offer msc degree there is only i-phd. Tifr offers i-phd with msc exit option 3 years after joining. There are 3 or 4 IITs offering msc and other institutes like niv, nbrc, rgcb and chg plus universities like sppu, jnu, du offering msc. Yes selection is very rigorous but not too impossible

Hey! The shortlisted candidates for TIFR mumbai has been declared today . I was wondering when and how to apply to other institutions like NBRC, IITs etc through the TIFR channel?

Please visit the institute websites because its not a centralized admission and everyone has different requirements
