like which subject i should give more preference to?
Also, in interviews can they ask numericals related questions from Biochem, Microbio or bioprocess?

Hi Tyson,

Numericals are rarely asked in interviews. In fact, questions related to your conceptual understanding of a "formula" or a "unit" might be asked. Interviews mostly deal with analyzing your aptitude for research especially how well you did your B.Tech Project(s). Make it a point that almost every interviewer will definitely focus on you Project/Internships.

In IIT Kanpur, you will be asked about your favorite subject; and thus you should make sure that you are well versed in the subject you are going to declare as your favorite. 

Faculty profile and research focus of different IITs also matters. In IIT Delhi, as I have already suggested, you should expect questions on Enzyme Engineering, Bioreactors, Batch-FedBatch-Continous modes, Microbiology, Biochemistry.

Same goes for other IITs. But, first and foremost, prepare your Projects very well!

Hope it helps

Best wishes

Sunil
