CBSE 12th

In case of a tie, all the students getting the same score and grade will be divided into two segments, the smaller segment will go with the larger. Method of grading will be used in subjects where the number of candidates who have passed is more than 500.

 In respect of subjects where total number of candidates passing in a subject is less than 500, the grading would be adopted on the pattern of grading and distribution in other similar subjects.

The maximum marks allotted in CBSE 12th exam are 500. Each subject carries 100 marks. Students can also take sixth subject, the final percentage is calculated using the best five subjects. 80/70 marks are allotted for Theory paper and 20/30 marks for internal assessment/practicals.

Short answer — yes, it's possible in some cases, but it depends on the branch and year.

Thapar fills:

• Major seats through JEE Main

• Some seats through 12th PCM merit (board marks category)

If your PCM percentage is strong (usually 90%+ for safer side), you can compete in the board merit category. But for top branches like CSE/COE, it's still very competitive even through boards.

So yes, you can apply without JEE — but your 12th marks need to be good.
