    Hi Naresh, Its very good that you have already decided that you want to pursue your graduation in pharmacy. Actually maths is not required in as subject to fulfill the criteria of eligibility if you want to take admission in pharmacy. Lovely Professional University is one of the premier Institute of India. At LPU, B. Pharmacy is an undergraduate four years course (approved by PCI) which is a pre-requisite for registration to practice as a pharmacist. It imparts skills to work in industry, clinical set ups, drug control organizations, education and research sectors in pharmaceuticals. # Eligibility Criteria (Qualifying Exam)

    If you are very certain that you want to be a pharmacist, you should enrol in the medical stream or the PCB subjects (biology, physics, and chemistry). Math is not required, but you can take it in addition to other subjects if you choose to. If you think that maths kan make your intermediate results shine even more than go for it not necessary though.

    If you are really interested in Pharmacy and want to make career in it, you shouldn't opt for Maths. As the syllabus is tough and different, you should take different subjects related to Pharmacy to strengthen your concepts rather than wondering about Maths.

    Opting Maths is a good thing even if you don't have Maths in your further studies because even in pharmacy also you will have Maths for one semester I think.

    It is not compulsory to take mathematics as a candidate for a Bachelor's degree in pharmacy must have completed 10+2 with the courses Physics Chemistry Math (PCM), Physics Chemistry Biology (PCB), or Physics Chemistry Maths & Biology. Additionally, one must get a D.Pharma or pass a Pre-University Course with at least 50% in Biology and Mathematics (Diploma in Pharmacy). .
