    Eligibility Criteria for B.Sc is to pass with approximately 55%-60% aggregate marks in 10+2 or Intermediate (with English, Physics, Chemistry, Maths or Biology or Forestry) OR 10+2 or Intermediate (Agriculture) OR 2 yrs. Diploma in Agriculture after class 10th or equivalent, subject to valid score in entrance test. So, you can take admission in B.Sc if you have 55%-60% in class 12th (PCM) and you qualify the entrance exam if any. I am enlisting a few good college for B.Sc:
    The best colleges for this course are:
