It depends on what kind of scientist you want to be.
If you want to do research in purely medical based field, I don't think maths would be compulsory.

Hello,
Thanks for asking.
If you want to become a scientist, you have to read both Science & Maths because both the subjects are related to each other.
Yes, if you don't like mathematics, then you can select (PCB), Physics Chemistry & Biology. You can get into research field by pursuing these subjects also.

Physics would be a better choice for becoming a scientist. It will definitely involve some mathematics but not purely. If you take pure mathematics course you can become a mathematician.

It totally depends upon you. Maths itself is a part of science and you should go for Science with maths as it will help you in becoming a scientist.

U can choose PCM because physics and chemistry already came in Science so choose PCM in 12th.
