Is it necessary to have 50% in pcm for engineering?
But there are still various private colleges that may not have a good rank or position but they still provide engineering with this 50 percentile in 12. With this low percentile you can face various problems in future mainly during your placements.
During your engineering try working hard in whatever field you are opting for, this may help outshine you hiding your low percentile.
So it's not necessary to have 50% in 12 class with PCM but 1st division marks are always on the better side.
DEAR ASPIRANT,
Many colleges offer engineering cousrses in India the aggregate may vary from college to college for instance if you want to study in Tamilnadu the % set by Anna university this year is 45%for UR and 40% forOBC/ sc/st and in maharashta it is 50% for UR and 45% for OBC/SC/ST so its all upto the state higher education department if you are being specific to a state , please post it below.
hope it helped.
