    Hi Ishita,
    For Bachelor of Physiotherapy, the eligibility is as follows:
    To pursue BPT one needs to be pass in 12th class or equivalent with a minimum aggregate of 50% marks in physics, chemistry and biology (including practical) provided the candidate has passed in each subject separately.
    There is a Common Entrance Test (CET) for the course in Bachelor of Physiotherapy (BPT). Admission is based mainly on CET scores.
    A candidate seeking admission to Bachelor of Physiotherapy should be at least 17 years of age.
    As per these eligibility conditions, you are not eligible for this course. It would be advisable that you get in touch with college
