Questions related to Bihar Board 12th
can i get admission to sastra university with 89 percentile in jee mains and 80.4 percent in bihar board 12th exam.
Hello nikhil,
There's no minimum cutoff marks required for the SASTRA UNIVERSITY, they give admission on the basis of JEE mains marks and your 12th board percentage,
You can calculate with this formula -
12th percentage * 0.75+jee main mark * 0.25
The total marks are 165, on the basis of your marks they will give you admission.
I hope it helps,
Best of luck
i got 77.4% in bihar board 12th exam but i perform very poor in jee mains jan shift. i only got 37 percentile. can i get admission in vit
Hello,
It's tough to predict anything as of now,as it is the first time VIT is giving admission on the basis of 12th marks,though those who have given jee mains will be given weightage.
Seeing your marks their could chance for you through your 12th marks but that solely depends on the merit of the students who have applied.
You still have one chance to appear in the jee exam which will be conducted in September,so prepared for that with best of your efforts.
Hope for the best;
I got 334 marks out of 500 in Bihar board 12th so can i elegible for nit iit or MHT-CET college or IISER scb exame and i am in PWD category
IIT and NIT eligibility criteria for PWD category candidates is 65% in your class 12 boards.
Mht CET colleges eligibility criteria is you need to get 50% marks .
For IISER you need to individually pass in all the subjects.
As you have got 334 marks out of 500 you have secured 66.8 % in your class 12 board which makes you eligible to appear for all the exams.
I have passed bihar board 12th exam but one subject in math have 30 marks with grace 5 mark then I can eligible for competitive exam
Hello Student,
If you have passed all the subjects then you are eligible for some of the competitive exams you wish to appear in your stream. But there are some entrance exams whose eligibility criteria for appearing is to score more than 50 percent in class 12th examination. It actually varies from exam to exam. So you need to check all the details before appearing for that particular exam.
sir/mam,I got 71.2% in bihar board 12th class am I eligible for jee advanced???
Hello, Ankit
Yes, you are eligible for JEE advance if you have scored 71.2% in 12th but just securing marks in 12th will not work as you need to clear JEE mains first and then you will be able to sit in advance paper.
BEST OF LUCK FOR FUTURE.
