Greetings,

NIFT is totally unaffected by the percentage you score in class 12. You just got to have a passing certificate.All that matters, is your CMR that you’ll score in the entrance exam.Everything coming up your way, from your choices of the centres, your second counselling advantage, to your SPT, will more or less depend on your CMR.So, you need to score well in your entrance exam and stop worrying about your percentage in class 12 But you must have passed the 10+2 level examination or equivalent examination from a recognised Board of Secondary Education in India with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics as compulsory subjects.

Thank you.
