Name change in 12th does not affect JEE IIT college admission, if you carry necessary proof of that name. If Name is not updated in 10th and 12 mark sheets-Legal affidavit for change of name during application & at time of admission. This affidavit, along with a gazette notification (if applicable) or newspaper publication will be an evidence for your name change. After you do this, make sure all your documents right from JEE application have the new name and nothing confuses during verification process.

If you have all your documentation in place, changing the name post-Class 12th will not cause any issues for admissions at JEE-accepting colleges. For applying to JEE after a name change, use your new names as in the affidavit when you fill up the application form for JEE. Upload name change affidavit and gazette notification / newspaper publication (if any) Attach the affidavit during admissions, along with certificates of class 10th and class 12 provided your old name. It is done to maintain the consistency and making this you can avoid any trouble at getting your documents verified.

 Yes, M.Tech from IIT is tough, as IITs have a reputation for excellence, and that extends to M.Tech programs. Moreover, M.Tech dives deeper into specialised areas, often involving research projects. Plus, you are surrounded by brilliant minds, hence you'll be constantly on your toes to keep up. It's a stimulating push, but can also be intensely pressurising.

You are typically not eligible for BTech programs at IITs as a PCB (Physics, Chemistry, Biology) student with 61% in the 12th grade, as these programs demand a solid background in mathematics (PCM). However, some universities may be able to accept you into their BSc biotechnology programs. However, IITs normally demand PCM in addition to JEE Advanced for admission. You might think about other prestigious universities that accept PCB students for biotechnology, such as Delhi University or IISERs.
