By choosing PCM+Computer science can I opt chemical engineering ?

For any stream of engineering, the minimum qualification which a candidate must have is 10+2 passed or appearing from a recognized board with Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics as compulsory subjects.

So, you can opt for Chemical engineering after choosing PCM+Computer Science. The entrance exam is Joint Entrance exam conducted by CBSE if you want to get admission in top engineering colleges of India like IIT, NITs, government engineering college.

You can also appear for the state level engineering entrance tests.

Yes, why not, you can definitely opt for the chemical engineering after choosing PCM plus computer science in 10+2.

The eligibility criteria for any stream of engineering is:

>>Candidate should have passed the 10+2 from a recognized board with Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. 10+2 appearing candidates can also apply for the exam.

>>The minimum percentage of marks in 10+2 is 50% for engineering courses.

You can appear for any of the given below engineering entrance exam for admission in good colleges:

1. Joint Entrance Examination.

2. BITSAT.

3. VITEEE.

4. SRMEEE.

5. State level Engineering entrance exam.

Chemical engineering is a branch of engineering course. For doing the engineering course you have to do the B.E./B.tech course as the graduation degree course.

It is necessary to have a successfully passed in class 12th from a good and recognized board to be eligible for this course.You must be belong from the PCM background during the class 12th.


As you are telling that you are of PCM background then definitely you can go for this course.

Yes, eligibility for JEE in engineering is Physics+chemistry+Math in your 10+2 exam. Some entrance board demand that aggregate marks in both phics, chemistry and math shoudl be 50%.
So don't worry, if you fill these eligibility criteria than you can take Chemical Engineering in your graduation.

Yes you will have a chance to take chemical engineering right after completion of 12th with Physics, Maths and Chemistry are main subjects. And one more thing is similar to other streams you need to write any entrance exam to get admission in good college.

More over you can also adopt chemical engineering with National level entrance exams like IIT JEE, state level exams like EAMCET, etc.,

So well prepare for entrance exams then you will get admission in good college. Then you start your career in chemical engineering.
