    Yes, you should because in Bachelors in pharmacy has maths as one of its subjects.
  • I thank you for giving me this opportunity, I am glad to help you. As per my knowledge, you should take BPC, because you want to go for B.Pharmacy. There is no relation between B.Pharmacy and M. P. C, so I recommend you to take B. P. C. And, better to have a counselling from college admission counselor which will be free in every college.

    No, you should not take mathematics. For doing pharmacy, you need biology and chemistry as your main subjects in class 12th. In migrancy there is no need of mathematics, all the things deal with physics, chemistry and biology. So choose wisely. Thanks.

    Well, for pharmacy, you don't compulsorily need to study Maths, but my recommendation is that you should study Maths, because Maths is an important subject to become knowledge.

    Hi there. !
    If you want to opt for D.Pharmacy, you can go with PCB also. It is not mandatory to opt maths in Bachelor's for B.Pharma, you need to study maths (Basics).

    No Maths is not a compulsion. In fact, PHARMACY is the only branch wherein students of both Maths and Biology can get admission. Thank you.

Heyyy riya
Absolutely! Having a humanities background is no barrier to pursuing Fine Arts at Chandigarh University.

The programme welcomes students from all streams, including humanities, as long as they meet the minimum requirement of 50% marks in their 12th exams. Many humanities students find the programme a natural extension of their academic interests, as the curriculum often connects with cultural, historical, and social themes. For example, a student who studied history might bring unique perspectives into courses like painting or applied arts.

The university values creativity and passion over specific subjects studied in school.
