Hello student,
With 42% in HSC, it may be challenging to get admission into an engineering program through JEE or CET, as many engineering colleges require at least 45-50% in HSC for eligibility. However, some private colleges or management quota seats may have more lenient requirements. It's best to check the specific eligibility criteria of the colleges you're interested in and consider applying to those that accept your HSC score. Additionally, improving your HSC marks through supplementary exams could enhance your chances.
