Hello,I passed my 10th standard from the CBSE board in 2024 and completed my 12th standard from the CBSE board in 2026, scoring 78%.Since I didn't score enough for the Medhavi Yojana through CBSE (which requires 85%), I have taken a gap year this year. Now, I am planning to reappear for the 12th board exams in 2027 through the MP Board as a private student.If I secure 70% or above in the MP Board 2027 exams, will I be eligible for the Mukhya Mantri Medhavi Vidyarthi Yojana (MMVY)? Does taking a gap year or appearing as a private student affect my eligibility?Please clarify. Thank you!
Hey there,
If you are asking about Madhya Pradesh's Medhavi Vidyarthi Yojana (MMVY), the key issue is that the 85% criterion applies to students passing Class 12 from the MP Board; for CBSE/ICSE/other boards, the eligibility criteria are different and may depend on the specific year’s official rules.
Since you scored 78% in CBSE Class 12 in 2026, do not assume you are automatically ineligible just because you didn't reach 85%. The scheme also has requirements relating to MP domicile, family income, entrance-exam/admission route and the type of institution/course.
Thanks
Nischal
