5 Free English Speaking Courses Online for Freshers (2025)

Hello,

The minimum Subject Requirement (as per NTA/JEE Advanced), you must have passed your Class 12 (or equivalent) examination with at least five subjects, including:

• Physics
• Chemistry
• Mathematics
• One language (usually English)
• Any one additional subject (e.g., Computer Science, Biology, Economics)

But you have only 4 subjects so, you will need to take one more A-level or AS-level subject to meet the 5-subject criterion.

Hope this helps. All the best!
