Hello,
I am an Indian female student and doing Higher Secondary. I want to do B.Sc in Nursing course after my Higher Secondary. But I have select PCM in my 12th Science. I want to know I am eligible for B.Sc(Nursing) or not?

Yes, you are very much eligible to pursue B.Sc Nursing course. Below however, I have mentioned the eligibility criteria for B.Sc Nursing course. Kindly have a look at it.

To prusue B.Sc Nursing course you need to fulfil the following below mentioned criterias;

> Candidate need to have completed their 12th standard from a recognised board/University

> Candidate needs to have scored a minimum of 55% marks in +2 level

> Candidate's minimum age should not be below 17 years

> The upper age of the candidate should not exceed 28 years

Eligibility for B.Sc Nursing:

You should have passed with science(PCB) & English core/English Elective with aggregate of 45% marks from recognized board.

Minimum age is 17 years.

Student must be medically fit.

Students appearing in 10+2 examination in science conducted by National Institute of Open School with 45% marks.

Student shall be admitted once in a year.

Eligibility for B.Sc Nursing :

>> You need to complete 12th with Biology, Physics and Chemistry are the main subjects from the recognized Board.

>> Actually the candidates who having 12th with MPC stream they are not eligible to apply for B.Sc Nursing.

>> Should secure minimum 40% of marks in 12th Examination.

>> Age should in between these limits.

* Minimum Age : 17 years

* Maximum Age : 35 years.

Above are the various requirements to do B.Sc Nursing. But you need to submit some certificates at the time of Admission like marks lists of Educational qualifications, Caste Certificate, T.C , Medical Fitness Certificate etc.,

It totally depends on the college to college because few of colleges provides admission on the basis of merit list generated by 12th class marks of Physics / Chemistry / Biology subjects but has passed from PCM so in that case you are not eligible and when we talk about entrance exams you are not able to clear the exam because you even don't know a single word about Biology so its really very difficult to clear the test.

If you really wanna go for desired stream then go for private colleges they will provide you admission because for them it doesn't matters that how many marks you got in 12th class or even from which stream you passed 12th class because they just wanna fill up their seats only.
