Hi Kundan,

Since you took Mathematics as an additional subject along with your PCB stream. So Yes , you can pursue Engineering in future and can attempt JEE for that. However, for JEE Main and Advanced eligibility, you must have studied Mathematics as one of the core subjects in your 12th standard, as it is a prerequisite for most engineering courses.

Since you have Mathematics as an additional subject, it's important to confirm with your school or educational board whether this is considered a valid core subject in your curriculum. If it is, you should be eligible to apply for JEE.

Most probably you can pursue Engineering and attempt JEE. You can also refer the given link to know more about some Career options after
PCMB .

Best wishes!

Hello,

Yes, you can pursue engineering and appear for JEE Mains if your 6th subject (Maths) meets the eligibility criteria . Key points:

  1. Eligibility Criteria: To appear for JEE Mains, you must have passed 12th with Physics, Chemistry, and Maths (PCM).
  2. Minimum Percentage: General category requires 75% marks, and SC/ST requires 65%, or equivalent grades (subject to NTA updates).
  3. 6th Subject Validity: If Maths is an additional subject and you have passed 12th, you are eligible.
  4. College Admissions: Admission depends on your JEE rank and college requirements.

Hope it helps !
