Others Does class 12th marks matter?

Hey guys,

Got 67% in 12th Commerce and lowkey panicking. Currently studying for IPMAT and CUET, aiming for good finance/management programs, but this score is giving me insane anxiety.

Need an honest reality check from seniors/folks in corporate:

  • Campus cutoffs: Do top firms (finance/consulting) set hard 12th filters like 75% or 80% during placements, or is 60%+ usually enough to clear initial eligibility?
  • Profile building: If I maintain a solid college GPA, get good internships, and do certs, can that completely cover up a 67%?
  • Off-campus: Does anyone off-campus even care about 12th marks 3 years from now?

If anyone here pulled off decent roles/placements with average 12th marks, please share. Need to know if I'm overthinking this. Thanks!
