You are eligible to pursue Bachelor of Architecture course if you have studied physics, chemistry and maths in class 12 with minimum 50% marks for general category and relaxation of 5% is SC/ ST category.

No, it is not necessary to study science in 12th for B.Arch Admission.
Candidate must have studied Mathematics as one of the main subjects.
Candidate must have passed 12th with at least 50% marks.

Yes, it is necessary to have studied science in 12th for B.arch admission.
It is not possible for you without science to study or to do course of architecture because the subjects like physics ,chemistry and maths in class XII are necessary.
