Hii Nithish
Congratulations on getting such a great score in your class 12th boards examinations.

You can pursue Bachelor's of sciences any of the particular subject you like very much or have interest in some other courses or vocational courses or proffesional courses offered by the University of Delhi , Mumbai university or even Jamia Millia Islamia university .

You have a wide option of either continuing being a science student or shift to commerce or even humanities in that case .

For engineering the best place to study is the IIT's /NIT's / JMI/DTU etc. you can get through them by scoring more than 200 in Jee Mains as well as in JEE advanced . You can visit our site for a detailed information regarding any query of yours regarding any College / university for any course .

Gap years mean a lot if that gap year couldn't fetch you a college worth studying in for making a career ahead .For eg if you drop for JEE and prepare for it the whole year but you couldn't make it to an IIT instead you end up doing Btech from a private un reputed college ,then your gap year was fruitless and can create a problem .

Hope it helps

Thanks
