What countries will I be able to go to for studying abroad given my low academic scores but above average extracurriculars in Australia/Canada?
You have good options to study abroad with a 68.5% in your 12th-grade exams and strong extracurricular achievements.
Many countries and universities consider your overall profile, not just academic scores. Here’s how some popular destinations approach this:
- Canada: Many colleges and some universities accept students with scores like yours, especially if you have a strong personal statement and extracurriculars. - Australia: Entry requirements are flexible. Strong English proficiency and a well-rounded application help. - United Kingdom: Foundation or pre-university programs are available for students with lower academic scores. - Italy: Several universities offer English-taught programs and accept diverse academic backgrounds.
A compelling statement of purpose and highlighting your extracurriculars will strengthen your application. Each university’s requirements vary, so focus on building a strong overall profile. If you’re interested in Italy, discuss specific university options and next steps with your LeapScholar counsellor.
