    It depends upon your rank in your first attempt. If you really want to go for engineering, then work very hard. Get enrolled in some classroom courses. Don't just sit and do self-study because you will absolutely get distracted, no matter how good you are at studies or focusing on your studies.

    It depends on your marks. If your score was too low, then you should not take drop. It would be very difficult for you to reach that level. If your score is good, but you couldn't score in advanced then it would be difficult for you to get a decent rank. I hope you are getting my point. It depends on your level. You have to figure it out. Good luck.

    Yes, definitely.
    But at the same time, you must keep in mind the importance of the drop. Work hard every day for at least 6 hours daily.
    Have a planned study schedule and don't forget to give the test series conducted by various institutes when you feel you have completed your portion.
    Stay true to yourself.
    Best of luck! Hope my suggestion would help you.

    Yes. If you are bright and ready for hard work, you should go for it. One year drop is not a big time.
    All the best.

    Yes, if you can't score well in 1st attempt, you can drop a year for the same.

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.
