  Answered by Group Captain Vinayak Deodhar La vie est faite pour vivre pas pour stresser | Scholar-Level 18 7 months agoHello Tapaswee Behera, I am afraid to tell you that on two counts you appear to be ineligible to appear for this examination. Firstly only those students who have appeared or appearing in 12th examination of 23 24 for 25 are eligible to appear for this examination. Secondly a student must obtained 60% marks in 12th which is relaxable by 5% in the case of SC ST and divyangjan candidates. You have stated that you have obtained about 53% marks and hence on this count also you appear to be ineligible. Best wishes to you.
