    In order to pursue any journalism and mass communication course Diploma programme you will have to first complete your education up to class 12th from a recognized board of education.
    You are required to score at least 45% to 50% marks in 12th in order to be eligible for the undergraduate degree courses.
    However, post-graduate degree and Diploma courses require you to possess a graduation degree and diploma respectively with at least 50% marks.

    Hi,
    Yes, you are eligible for Bachelors degree of mass communication and journalism.
    The college should be chosen with care because your degree needs a wide platform and exposure.LPU is a college I know which gives work experience in the college to its students and the links it has, gives good placements too. Similarly is St Xavier's Bombay which gives wide opportunities to its students.So check the academic excellence of the college as well as the scholarship slabs it offers and choose your college.
    Browse through the websites of some good college to know the details.

Hi.

If you apply with JEE Main scores, CU primarily considers your JEE Main percentile / AIR for admission.

12th marks are generally secondary in this case — mostly used for eligibility criteria (like minimum 50–60% in PCM or aggregate, depending on branch).

High JEE scores can also qualify you for JEE-based scholarships at CU.

Hi.

Yes — for admission to B.Tech/B.E. at Chandigarh University (CU), there is a requirement on your 12th‑class marks (along with other eligibility conditions), even if you're using your JEE Main score. 

What's required from 12th (or equivalent) at CU

You must have passed 10+2 (or equivalent) from a recognised board with Physics and Mathematics. 

For many B.Tech courses at CU, including those that accept JEE Main or CU's entrance (CUCET), the minimum aggregate requirement in 12th is around 50% (for general or merit‑based eligibility) as a baseline.

Hi.

If your 12th result has not been announced yet then 

Upload expected / provisional marks for now.

Hi.

AIIMS is primarily a medical college/university (undergraduate, postgraduate, super-speciality, etc.) + a hospital. 

Its courses begin after Class 12 — i.e. you must have completed 12th standard (10+2) to be eligible for entry into courses like MBBS, B.Sc., etc. 

The official course list of AIIMS includes medical and allied health degrees — not school-level classes (11th / 12th) as per its academic catalogue.

Thus, AIIMS itself does not run 11th and 12th standard as a school.
