Are there any issues with my bachelor's percentage of 55.7% and zero backlogs for admission in Australia/Canada?

It depends. A bachelor's percentage of 55.7% with zero backlogs may limit your options for master's admission in Canada and Australia, as many universities prefer higher academic scores. However, some institutions may consider applicants with lower percentages, especially if you have strong supporting documents or relevant experience.

Consider these steps:
- Look for universities with flexible admission criteria or pathway programs.
- Postgraduate diploma programs may offer an alternative route.
- Highlight any work experience or certifications in your application.
- A strong score in English proficiency tests like IELTS can help.
