Hello,
The eligibility to apply for a course or scholarship typically depends on the program or institution. For undergraduate programs like B.Tech, eligibility usually requires passing Class 12 with a minimum percentage in subjects like Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics/Biology. For scholarships, eligibility may include income criteria, academic performance, and category-specific requirements. Always check the specific course or scholarship details on the institution's official website for accurate information.

Hello Aspirant
No, this will not be a problem with either your mother or your document verification. It is not a rule in India to have the same surname as your mother or father, you can choose to drop your surname and it will never be a problem. It is also not a compulsion for a wife to take their husband's name. So, you can rest assured that this will not pose a problem in your document verification in SSC JE.
Hope this helps

It is very east to move from SSC to CBSE in class 7th you just need to contact the school in which you want to take admission there may be entrance test you need to pass but some school give admission directly and it is also the best time to shift because mostly State Board does not lay emphasis on English communication which will create problems later moreover,The State Syllabus generally more easier when compared to CBSE. There is the reason because questions are almost never out of the textbook and almost every question is comes in exam which is mostly taught in class with revision.
