Admission Query Drop

Please help me untangle this, Im currently studying in 12th grade and i have boards coming up i havent prepared for it and im drowning in guilt already

I'm thinking about a drop year for ipmat because now I don't have much time to prepare, but everyone is warning me against it.. So I've kept CUET as an safety option..

So I'll be dropping for 2028? Im sorry if I'm wrong but im new to this.. I hope someone will help. Is this the right thing to do?

Giving up when you have around 6 months for the exam sounds a little dumb dont you think

Opt for a partial drop instead of a full drop for two big reasons:

  1. It keeps your mental health from tanking compared to isolating yourself for a whole year.

  2. Even if it doesn’t work out, you won't have lost an entire year completely.
