    You have to give BITSAT test for entrance into BITS.
    There is a provision for board toppers for direct admission.

    Hi Motupalli, the only way for getting direct admission in BITS, Pilani any of the campuses is when the candidate is a board topper. So, irrespective of how much marks you scored in 10+2 exam , if you are a board topper, then you can secure a seat for B.E course.
    Other than that, you can obviously sit for BITSAT next year, if you haven't done well this year.
    Best Wishes!!

    Hey there.
    The cut offs for direct admission in BE course is relatively very high and it is mostly the toppers of state and central boards who manage to get direct admissions based on high percentage in 12th.
    However, 95% is good a percentage but I don't think it's good enough to land you directly in BITS.
    Also when you have such percentage you must try for BITSAT.

A gap of 1 to 2 years after 12th can be considered normal. Although the students should be able to address it via the valid documents. The reasons like health, finance, skill development or family are accepted. 

And if the gap after the high school Diploma is beyond 2 years, strong documentation is required to justify the same. The documents like which shows productivity for which an SOP can serve great purposes.

Yes, it should not be hard for you to get admission to the University of Western Australia as an Indian student with 50% in class 12th. However, please note that it does not put you in the top applicants either. The general admission percentage requirement for international students is 50 to 65%.

Look at the other admission requirements - 

  • English proficiency tests with IELTS (bands 6.5) or TOEFL iBT (82+)
  • High school Diploma from a recognised board like CBSE or ICSE etc. 
  • Some course-specific subjects for Engineering programs

Top universities require a minimum of 80-90% in your 12th-grade board exams.

  • Average universities often accept students with 60-75%.
  • For highly competitive courses like Medicine, cut off is usually higher. 
  • Strong SAT/ACT scores can also compensate for a slightly lower board percentage.

Countries like Germany and Norway are excellent options. Because public universities there charge little to no tuition fees.  The cost of living and education is significantly lower compared to the USA or UK. You must factor in living expenses and language requirements.
