Will my 85% overall 12th marks help in getting admission or scholarship in UK for a Master's?

Yes, your 85% in 12th standard is a strong academic score and will support your admission chances for a master's program in the UK. For master's admissions, your graduation grades are more important, but a high 12th score shows consistent academic performance.
For scholarships, 12th marks alone are rarely the deciding factor. Graduation results, work experience, statement of purpose, and other criteria matter more. However, a strong academic history across all levels can strengthen your overall profile for scholarship consideration.
Leap can help you identify scholarships where your full academic and professional background is competitive.
