Helo Shyam!
Though your 12th % wont look good in your portfolio for top universities, but your SAT score is above average. If your Statement of purpose(SOP) is impressive enough and your Toefl/IELTS scores are good enough too, then you can expect merit-cum-needs based scholarship in the universities you will apply for sure!
Eventually, after one or two semesters you can apply for more scholarship in the financial aid office of the university you joined. They will find the suitable ones for you according to your performance in that semester. You can try contacting the office through respective emails as well.
Hope this helps!
Hello Aspirant,
Since you have not mentioned the name of your state so it's quite difficult to guide you with an accurate information but if we consider your profile then it shows that you belongs to Karnataka so you might be interested in answer key of NTSE 2020-21 for Karnataka state, if not then please mention the correct one.
So let me make you clear that until and unless the examination is conducted the answer key cannot be disclosed because without question paper how one can get the answers and the official date for NTSE stage 1 exam for session 2020-21 for Karnataka is January 24th '21 and some coaching institutes will release the unofficial answer key on the same day but the official answer key will be released after few days of conduction of exam.
You can download the answer key for NTSE stage 1 of Karnataka state from the link given below :-

I hope this information helps you.
Good Luck!!
As you have not mentioned the name of your state so considering it as UP according to your profile, if any other than please mention it.
See your total score in NTSE stage 1 comes out to be 91 out of 200 so on such score you can easily qualify NTSE stage 1 but you have no chances of being shortlisted for stage 2 because the expected cut-off for shortlisting of candidate for stage 2 from UP is 170-185 for General category.
You can get idea of shortlisting cut-off for NTSE UP from the cut-offs of 2020 :-
Category
Overall cutoff marks
General
169
OBC
148
SC
138
ST
69
PH 1
65
PH 2
84
PH 3
81
EWS
93
So it shows that you have NO chances to be qualified for stage 2 but still we have to wait because the cut-off mentioned above is only the expected cut-off.
Cut off depends upon various factors such as the difficulty level of stage 1 exam, UP State quota, number of students appeared in the stage 1 exam, last year's NTSE UP cutoff and so on.

Since you have not mentioned your home state so considering it as MP according to your profile.
As per the percentage you have mentioned in the question, your total marks come out to be 158 out of 200 and as you belongs to General category so the expected cut-off for NTSE MP 2021 is 175-185 for General category.
So it shows that you have less chances to be qualified for stage 2 but still we have to wait because the cut-off mentioned above is only the expected cut-off.

If you download the full question paper of MAT & SAT in Bengal, you will not find any bengali version question in it. So I don't think that the Bengali Version papers are conducted in West Bengal NTSE stage-1.
I hope my answer helps. All the very best for your future endeavors!

In response to your inquiry, and in light of the fact that you are unsure about the two examinations, the Jee and the SAT,
I'd like to point out that it is entirely dependent on your field of interest. If you want to study engineering, you should definitely take the Jee test, since it is the most significant exam for engineers in the nation. However, if you want to study overseas, you should take the GMAT.

Hi,
Well there the admission criteria is very holistic and they consider the overall application including grades, motivation letter, sat or act scores and other scores, extra curricular, recommendation letter and complete application. So even if grades are off a bit other parts can make the application way too strong. Also your grades are pretty decent so go on and apply.
