• By chance it is easy to clear   in 12th  than eleventh because in 11 class when you give the exam bio as 4 subject with PCM  is compulsory subject whereas in case of 12th it is not compulsory you can surely attempt 3subjects out of PCMB whichever you like.

• if you cleared written and interview then it will help you to get direct entry into the best college of india iisc bangalore and other good colleges of India  along with its direct benefit of scholarship and certficate.
