Will my having done twelfth twice and the marks deduction affect my master's application or do I need to do anything about it in Germany for a Bachelor's?

It depends on the specific Master's programs in Germany. Most focus on your Bachelor's degree performance, but some may review your entire academic record, including 12th grade.

If your 12th grade repetition and marks deduction are relevant to a program's admission criteria, be prepared to explain them clearly in your Statement of Purpose or as a separate document.

For guidance on how to present your academic history, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
