Being a 12th repeater due to illness will not significantly impact your future placements if you perform well in college. Top institutes like IITs, IIITs, NITs, and BITS prioritize skills, academic performance, and internships over past setbacks. While some companies have strict eligibility criteria, many focus on technical knowledge, projects, and experience rather than a gap in 12th grade. To strengthen your profile, maintain good grades, gain relevant skills, and work on internships or projects to showcase your capabilities during placements.
