Hey everyone, I’m Anushka. I’m posting this on behalf of my cousin who isn’t on Reddit and is currently feeling pretty devastated. He’s had a rough couple of years and we really need some guidance on his next steps. u/BhaveshShaha pls help

Class 10th: 93%,
Class 12th PCM(2024): Couldn't appear due to a severe spine injury (conditions like paralysis) and long-term bed rest
Class 12th (2025): Appeared as a private candidate; scored 64%. took drop for improvement in 2026 and jee 2026
2026 Drop Year: He worked incredibly hard and scored 97.8 percentile in JEE Mains.
Class 12th(2026) just came :73%. ( not gonna get engineering college due to 75% criteria)

The Crisis: He has a brilliant JEE score but is falling short of the 75% requirement for engineering clg by just 2%. It feels like his hard work is going to waste because of this board criteria.
Current Situation & JIPMAT: He filled out the JIPMAT (IPM admission) form on May 10th using his 2025 score (64%).

  1. JIPMAT Correction: Can he edit his Class 12th marks in the JIPMAT application now that his improvement result is out?
  2. Does JIPMAT/IIMs have a strict 75% cutoff like engineering, or will his 73%/64 ( if he is not able to edit his marks ) be okay?
  3. He belongs to the OBC community. Since his 12th marks are low (73%), what should be his target score in JIPMAT to "overshadow" the low board marks during final selection? IIMs usually have a weightage for 12th marks can a very high entrance score compensate for this?

He is a very bright student who just had a streak of bad luck with his health and board exams. Any advice, college suggestions, or technical help regarding the application forms would mean the world to us.

TL;DR: Cousin has 97.8%ile in JEE but only 73% in Boards (Improvement). Missed the 75% mark. Needs to know about JIPMAT edits

Got completely bored while studying today and ended up making this custom map of Patna's ongoing and completed infrastructure projects.

Here is the breakdown of what I marked:

🚇 Patna Metro

  • Thin Red & Blue Lines: Metro routes under construction.

🛣️ Major Roads & Corridors

  • Light Orange: AIIMS-Digha elevated road/corridor.
  • Orange: Atal Path.
  • Green (near Ganga River): JP Ganga Path (Marine Drive).
  • Another Green (with underground red metro line): Bailey Road flyover.
  • Dark Green (near Patna Junction): Mithapur-Mahauli elevated road (near completion).
  • Yellow (with underground blue metro line): Ashok Rajpath double-decker flyover.
  • White: All interconnected flyovers around Patna Junction.
  • Brown: Flyover on Zero Mile/Bypass.

🌉 Bridges & Intersections

  • Dark Yellow (at Atal Path start): Lohia Path Chakra intersection.
  • Purple (from left to right): 1. JP Setu, 2. Mahatma Gandhi Setu, 3. Kachi Dargah - Bidupur 6-lane bridge.
  • Black: Rail Over Bridges (ROBs) and connectors to Ganga Path.

Let me know what you think of this map! Did I miss any??
