KVPY Exam Preparation
KVPY (Kishore Vaigyanik Protsahan Yojana) is an exam-based fellowship in India. This page outlines the exam details and math topics covered, providing relevant wikis and quizzes for training and practice. Other sciences are covered on the exam, but are not currently covered on this page.
Exam Information
The first round of the selection procedure is an aptitude test. Generally, the cut off is seen to be around 45%-60% of the total marks but it may vary according to the toughness of the paper. Then, based on the performance in the aptitude test, short-listed students are called for an interview which is the final stage of the selection procedure. For receiving a fellowship, both aptitude test and interview marks are considered.
