Hi.
Dont worry you have so much time to score good marks.
follow some strategy
- Organic Chemistry: Focus on all the name reactions and their mechanisms. Write them down repeatedly until you remember them perfectly.
- Physical Chemistry: Similar to physics, create a master list of all formulas from chapters like Solutions, Chemical Kinetics, and Electrochemistry. Practice applying these formulas to textbook problems.
- Inorganic Chemistry: Read the textbook thoroughly for this part, focusing on trends and important points (e.g., p-block elements).

Hi.
No, you cannot take admission in SSCBS because maths is compulsory.
The main courses offered by SSCBS are:
- BMS (Bachelor of Management Studies)
- BBA (FIA) (Bachelor of Business Administration in Financial Investment Analysis)
- B.Sc. (Hons) Computer Science
For all these courses, passing Mathematics or Applied Mathematics in Class 12 is a compulsory eligibility requirement.
