    First of all, congratulations Mandeep for your score. According to your score, you would get admission in many good engineering colleges except IIT. I would not suggest you to take a one year drop only for IITJEE as in the long run, the college matters less. It's your hard work which matters the most. Also, with the growing competition, there's a fair chance of not getting an IIT next year and regretting the loss. Though, if you are confident enough to work hard and get an IIT next year, be confident and go on. All the best!

    If you are confident and have believe in yourself, then you can go for one year drop.

    I won't suggest you to drop a year as there are very low chances of getting into good colleges after dropping a year.

Hi...

Yes you can get an admission in private colleges with 80% IN 12TH board without taken any entrance exam.

Many private universities and state-level government-aided colleges reserve a percentage of seats for direct admission based on Class 12th marks. A score of 80% is generally competitive enough for consideration for many popular branches.

Hi.

Dont worry you have so much time to score good marks.

follow some strategy 

  • Organic Chemistry: Focus on all the name reactions and their mechanisms. Write them down repeatedly until you remember them perfectly.
  • Physical Chemistry: Similar to physics, create a master list of all formulas from chapters like Solutions, Chemical Kinetics, and Electrochemistry. Practice applying these formulas to textbook problems.
  • Inorganic Chemistry: Read the textbook thoroughly for this part, focusing on trends and important points (e.g., p-block elements).

Hi.

Yes you can do BA.

  1. Identify your target universities and the specific BA programs you are interested in.
  2. Visit their official admission websites to check the exact "program-specific eligibility criteria" and required CUET subject combinations for the current academic year.
  3. Choose your CUET subjects based on these university requirements to ensure your application is valid for those specific courses.

Hi.

No, you cannot take admission in SSCBS because maths is compulsory.

The main courses offered by SSCBS are:
  • BMS  (Bachelor of Management Studies)
  • BBA (FIA)  (Bachelor of Business Administration in Financial Investment Analysis)
  • B.Sc. (Hons) Computer Science 
For all these courses, passing Mathematics or Applied Mathematics in Class 12 is a compulsory eligibility requirement.
