I got 96 in jenpauh can i apply for counseling?
You should apply for counseling. Though the cutoff score for general candidates is 105 (approximately), but you should at least give it a chance. If seats remain vacant in any of the private colleges you can get a chance. So you should not loose hope as of now.
Even if you don't get through, you can study hard for the next time to get a good government college.
Good luck
