If I score more than 90 or 95 percent in my board exams, will I have better chances of admission or financial aid in UAE/USA?

Yes, scoring above 90% or 95% in your board exams can improve your chances of admission and merit-based financial aid in both the USA and UAE.
- USA: High board marks strengthen your application for universities and make you more competitive for merit scholarships. Some scholarships also consider standardized test scores and your overall academic profile.
- UAE: Many universities offer automatic tuition discounts (often 10 - 50%) for students with Class 12 marks above 85%. High scores can directly reduce your tuition fees.
Universities may also consider factors like test scores, extracurriculars, and personal statements.
