About Courses After 12th PCB

If you are going into the medical field because of your PCB score then I would suggest you not do it. Instead, choose a career as per your interest and aptitude so that you will enjoy and feel motivated every time when you are doing your job and for this, you need to plan your career at first.

So you chose the medical stream since you liked biology but now all you hear is medical and medical coaching, which is not something you want to get into as your mainstream career. For everyone who is living under the misconception that the career options for PCB students after 12th start and end with medical, then it’s time for a wake-up alarm.

A student having PCB in 12th standard can pursue further study in medicine or dental studies, biochemistry, biotechnology, microbiology, agricultural, and dairy science. There are many areas available to choose from in the field of paramedicines such as Physiotherapy and Occupational therapy, Audiology, Speech Therapy, nursing, Medical Lab Technology, Nutrition and Diet, Pharmacy, etc. Those interested in animal husbandry and veterinary science can take a career as a veterinary doctor with necessary exams for the same.
