    Hello Dear!Gone are the days when students pursuing PCB in class 12 could only think about Medicine as a career option. Courses after class 12 Biology are not just limited to M. B. S these days. If you have studied Biology in classes 11 & 12, there are ample career opportunities available to not just explore the subject, but also to pursue a career in the medical and paramedical fields which are well recognized and well paid.

    It's not certain that if you have PCB in 12th, then you should become doctor Only. There are so many courses other than doctor that you can opt for. Like, you can opt for B.Sc. In various branches which you want or the teaching course or the research courses. There are so many options available.

    You can do some great job like lecturer, engineer, software developer, software engineer, some civil service (defense service) and many more after class 12th Science. So, you can do B.Sc or M.Sc Computer Science etc. Good luck.

    There are many numbers of courses. But, I personally Suggest go for B.Sc. Agriculture, because the people can't live without Food. And the world is too toxicated and the people ready to pay the money you ask. All the best for your Choice.
