It's important to remember that a result is just a reflection of a specific moment in time. It should not be seen as the ultimate measure of one's life or the final destination. Life is a journey filled with numerous milestones waiting to be achieved.

Unfortunately, there are often misconceptions among students and parents that only the result holds significance. This belief leads to the fear that a bad result will ruin their future career prospects.

However, it's crucial to understand that things change over time. The importance of different results varies as we progress through different stages of life. For example, there was a time when the result of class 10 exams held great importance. But as time went on, it became obsolete, and the result of class 12 exams took precedence.

Similarly, there came a time when the result of competitive exams became crucial for career opportunities. However, with the saturation of job markets, what truly matters now is one's skills and abilities.

So, instead of fixating on a single result, it's essential to focus on personal growth, continuous learning, and acquiring the necessary skills to navigate through life's challenges. Remember, there are countless milestones waiting to be achieved beyond any single result.

They do in some situations and they don't in others. If you are planning to attempt CAT(for admissions into IIM for pursuing MBA), the 12th boards is counted and it is extremely difficult to score in the other sections of the examination,so the 12th mark kind of determines your fate .
If you are going for scholarships at college they look at your 12th marksheet .
And for highers ,some prestigious universities look at your 12th marksheet.


Other than that , everything depends on your performance in your college. Your GPA, internships and projects matter if you are solely focussed on placement .
Hope this helps.

Yes definitely
  • You need 75% in class 12 to get nit or iit.
  • You need to qualify minimum eligibility criteria for many college which is 55-60%.
  • In your placements company also see your board exams.

Best of luck for your secure and bright future.

It doesn't matter much while taking admission in colleges (only 75% required)....but in job interviews if you have low 12th percentage then it would matter...but not much.......and if you are determined to your goal then 12th marks is just nothing...so don't worry much.....

It does not matter in taking admission in colleges but in future when you want a job some companies look at those marks so try to get a better marks

If you have a set goal in life and are determined to work for it then the answer is a big NO!!
However, if you wanna put the blame for you being unsuccessfu to luck then marks may come in handy. You can defend yourself by seeing "See I got xx% in 12th. You can't blame me for being unsuccessful now."
