Hello,

Yes, as a Zoology postgraduate , you can take Biological Sciences as your main subject for further studies or teaching. Many universities offer Ph.D. in Biological Sciences, M.Phil., B.Ed. (Biological Science) for teaching careers, or research programs . If you’re looking for lecturer positions , check eligibility based on UGC NET or SET .

Hope this helps you,

Thank you

Yes, students with a Biology background can pursue Polytechnic courses , but options may be limited. Most diploma programs require Mathematics in Class 10 or 12. However, Biology students can apply for diploma courses in fields like:

1. Medical Lab Technology
2. Pharmacy
3. Biotechnology
4. Agricultural Science
5. Food Technology

Check the eligibility criteria of the specific polytechnic institute before applying.

Since you have PCMB in Class 12 and want to pursue B.Sc. Nursing through BCECE (Bihar Combined Entrance Competitive Examination), you only need to appear for Physics, Chemistry, and Biology (PCB) papers. Mathematics is not required for B.Sc. Nursing. The BCECE exam pattern varies for different courses, and for nursing programs, only PCB subjects are considered. However, make sure to check the official BCECE 2025 notification for any updates on the exam pattern. Focus on Physics, Chemistry, and Biology, as these subjects determine your ranking and admission eligibility in B.Sc. Nursing colleges under BCECE.

Hello Neha,

Since you like Biology and Physics (without numericals) and want to teach, consider these options:

1. Primary (Classes 1-5) – You can teach EVS, Science, and General Studies as these subjects have minimal numericals.
   
   
2. Middle School (Classes 6-8) – Opt for Biology and General Science (Physics here has fewer numericals).
   
   
3. High School (Classes 9-10) – Biology is a good choice since Chemistry has equations and Physics includes calculations.
   
   
4. Higher Secondary (11-12) – Best for Biology, as Physics and Chemistry are more numerical-heavy.
   
   

Since you like teaching and theoretical subjects, Biology for Classes 9-12 would be ideal. You can also consider Social Science for lower grades if you enjoy it.


I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries then feel free to share your questions with us we will be happy to assist you.

Thank you and wishing you all the best for your bright future.

hi ,

Yes, you are eligible for MBBS admission as long as you meet the following criteria:

1. NEET-UG Eligibility Criteria (As per NMC & NTA)

- Class 12 subjects: You must have studied Physics, Chemistry, Biology (PCB), and English in Class 11 & 12.
- Minimum marks required:

• General category: At least 50% aggregate in PCB
• OBC/SC/ST category: At least 40% aggregate in PCB
• PwD category: At least 45% aggregate in PCB
  - Age limit: You must be at least 17 years old by December 31, 2026 (for NEET 2026).
  - NEET Exam: You must qualify NEET-UG to get admission into any MBBS course.

hope this helps

Under the CBSE board, a student is considered to have passed Class 12 if they pass at least five subjects, including the required ones. Since you have six subjects, if you fail in Physics but pass in Chemistry, Biology, English, Painting, and Computer Science, you will still be considered passed because your additional subject (Computer Science) will replace the failed subject. However, for medical college admission, you must pass Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and English as per NMC eligibility rules. Since Physics is mandatory, you would need to clear it in a compartment exam to be eligible for NEET and MBBS admission.

Yes, if you fail in Physics but pass all other subjects including Chemistry, Biology, Painting, and Computer Science (your additional subject), you will still be considered to have passed 12th grade under the CBSE board.

According to CBSE rules, you only need to pass five subjects to be considered passed in 12th grade.

Even though you are taking Computer Science as an additional subject, your result in that subject does not affect your overall passing status.

If you want to improve your Physics grade, you can appear for a compartment exam in that subject later.

Hello

Yes, you can pursue BSc Nursing after completing your 12th with PCM (Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics) in 2024 and giving the biology exam as a private candidate in 2025.

Most BSc Nursing programs require candidates to have studied Biology in their 12th grade. Since you'll be completing the biology exam, you'll meet the eligibility criteria for BSc Nursing.

Ensure that the university or college you are applying to accepts private candidates for the biology exam and confirms the eligibility criteria for admissions.
