Hi Sir,
I just recently passed class 11th with 55% marks. I want to know whether my 11th class marks will be taken in consideration in future? For example, suppose in entrance exams or professional interviews?

No, percentage of marks secured in 10+1 has nothing to do with any entrance exam or any professional interviews. Your marks in 10+2 board exams will be taken into account as eligibility criteria for any exam or any recruitment test for private jobs.

For example, at graduate level, multinational companies like TCS, HCL, IBM etc has eligibility criteria that candidate must have at least 60% marks in 10+2 board exams. You must score well in 10+2 board exams. You need not worry regarding your marks in standard 10+1.

Yes, definitely your 11th standard marks will be considered when the admissions to Graduation course are done on the basis of your Higher Secondary course. And your 11th standard marks are also considered even if the admissions are offered through entrance examination like EAMCET.

In Professional Interviews also, 11th standard marks are considered. Most of the companies ask for cutoff as 60% or 70% through out your academics then, it means all your 10th standard, 11th and 12th standard marks also taken into consideration.

No, your 11th marks will not be considered for the entrance examinations and professional interviews. But your 10th and 12th marks are considered for the higher studies and for the job interviews. So concentrate well on your studies and get good marks in 12th standard. The 12th marks will only decide your future studies and your career. Many reputed companies insist on good marks in all the academic examinations (10th, 12th and Graduation). So study well and get good marks to get a good job in a reputed company.

No, as per the present scenario, the marks of 11th standard are not considered for the entrance examinations and the job interviews. All they see is for your 12th Class mark sheet.

Make sure that you do a little better in the coming year as many of the entrance examinations have their eligibility criteria as 60-65% in 12th and also many companies have the similar kind of criteria.

Only 12th board examination marks is considered for any entrance examination which is percentage based or any professional interview.

*No entrance examination considers 11th marks for its eligibility or shortlisting. For example, Technical Entry Scheme of Indian Army short list candidate on basis of 10+2 marks not 11th standard marks.

*In private companies or multinational recruitment, percentage of marks scored in 12th board exam is considered for eligibility.

No, class 11th marks will neither be considered in any kind of Entrance Examination nor in any Interviews. Candidates eligibility for any Entrance Examination will be judged on the basis of class 12th marks scored and in Interviews also class 12th marks are been seen everywhere.
