    It all depends on your interest, ambition, passion and career goals. After completion of B.Com, MBA (finance) will be a good option if you are interested in financial institutions, taxation, accountancy. And if you are interested in management, go for BBA. Higher studies is preferable whichever may be your stream.

    The career options after 12th are CA CFA CMA, ACCA, and other professional courses along with BBA BMS, B.Com (Hons), and BBE. The points you should keep in mind while choosing a course are-Interest - If you think you are interested in a professional course you must go for MBA and if you are interested in accounting or wider scope that goes for B.Com
    - Course curriculum- It's different, so must check once before choosing a course. The exam pattern for BBA is more hectic than B.Com. - Future scope - It definitely needs to be considered for career prospects. B.Com has a wider scope than BBA.

    Career options after completing 12th with commerce would increase if you pursue BBA with specialisation. BBA is a much better option to pursue after 12th as it gives you the knowledge and the skills to be an entrepreneur, highly skilled manager in the field of Marketing and Sales. There are many colleges offering BBA with specialisation in Delhi- NCR, noteworthy is IILM-lodhi road.

    Both the courses are good, Which course you want to pursue totally depends upon your area of interest. B.Com and BBA have been the topmost choices for students who wish to make a career in the field of management or commerce. Bachelor of Commerce B.Com is one of the oldest courses which continues to be extremely popular among students even today. Whereas Bachelor in Business Administration BBA falls in the category of courses that have seen a massive increase in demand in recent years. With various options available, it is difficult to choose the right career path after class 12. B.Com and BBA are some of the most popular choices of st

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. 

Some sources show that for “full eligibility” (especially for certa

Hi.

If your 12th result has not been announced yet then 

Upload expected / provisional marks for now.

Final admission depends on the official 12th mark sheet after results are announced.

Colleges are used to this situation, especially for students applying in early cycles.

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.
