Hello,

Yes, achieving 62% in your ICSE board exams does allow for direct admission into the Science stream, but this largely depends on the specific school or college you are choosing.

Numerous private schools and colleges establish their own cut-off percentages for Science, and although leading institutions may demand 75–85% or more, various mid-tier or local schools admit students with 60% and above. Your probabilities can enhance if you’ve performed comparatively better in Science and Math subjects particularly.

It's advisable to contact schools one by one, share your academic interests and objectives, and inquire whether they take interviews or internal evaluations into account along with board scores. You can also investigate state-run or semi-private schools that have more lenient cut-offs.

Hope this helps. All the best!
