Hi,

Traditionally, PCM and PCB subject combination has been mandatory for entry into UG programmes at engineering institutes across India. However, National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 called for removal of compartmentalised education systems.

Admission in Engineering Colleges without Entrance Exam

Every year more than 50 entrance exams are held for admission in engineering colleges. Without appearing in entrance exams, You can get engineering admission on the basis of 12th marks.

PCM important but not compulsory for certain engineering courses: AICTE. ... “Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics will continue to be important subjects for certain streams of engineering like mechanical engineering, its not that these subjects will lose their relevance.

Hope this helps

Wish you luck

Dear Aspirant, with a 45 percentage pf marks in your 12th standard and also without PCM you cannot get admission in Pune engineering colleges. You can go for management quota but it will be costly. I hope you are clear now. Feel free to ask if you have any other doubts. All The Best for your future.
