Choose subjects according to which field you will want to continue in future.

Neither Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Mathematics (PCMB) combination is hard nor Physics, Chemistry and Biology (PCB) combination is tough.

If a student takes PCB combination then :-

Let's suppose a student is sure that he/she wants to go for medical courses like MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery) , BDS (Bachelor of Dental Surgery), BHMS(Bachelor of Homeopathic Medicine and Surgery) or other similar courses. OR he/she wants to do research work in future and chooses BSc then apart from subjects like mathematics and statistics he/she will be able to choose any other subject.

If a student takes PCM combination :-

If suppose a student wants to go for engineering OR BSc in Information Technology (IT),  BSc in Computer Science (CS) then Mathematics is important here but not biology.

For PCMB combination :-

Now if a student is confused and cannot choose the field right now then it's completely okay but the student must then choose PCMB combination. PCMB combination keeps open almost all the doors of almost all the career fields.

Now, if you choose PCMB combination then almost all the fields are open for you that is you can go for computer related fields because you have taken Mathematics, medical related courses because you have taken Biology. This combination PCMB is not at all tough. With proper planning of a timetable and by following it studying this combination becomes easy.

Also a student can choose PCB combination which is not tough. This combination is also easy to tackle as it has 3 Main subjects. Now if a student chooses PCB then the opportunity of taking other field is not possible. Fields like engineering, computer related fields cannot be opted by this combination.

This is just basic so do not get confused. If you have already decided which field and what course you will take up in future then go for the combination required by that field. If you are not sure about career right now which is okay then you can go for PCMB. But the final decision must be yours.

Now there are other courses or other aims too in one's life. For example being an IAS officer. So the eligibility for other courses other than those mentioned above will differ. If you have other course or entrance exam that you want to prepare for and are confused do mention it down in the comment section.

- Choose career wisely. Choose where your interest lies so that you can work in that field without getting bored. Then choose subjects accordingly.

If you still have any queries feel free to ask in the comment section down below.
