Hello Aspirant,

Biochemistry is of great utility for Forensic Science investigations. Candidates who have a degree in B.Sc Biochemistry can work as Forensic Scientists in the Forensic department.

There are various job opportunities under the degree biochemistry. I am writing down the name of the post offered under this degree:

• Research Fellow.
• Analytical chemist.
• Biomedical scientist.
• Pharma Associate.
• QA / AC Associate.
• Healthcare scientist.
• Clinical biochemistry.
• Food Safety Analyst.

All the best!

Hello Aspirant,

To become a doctor in India you need to clear class 12th in science stream and then apply for entrance exams for MBBS like NEET( National eligibility cum entrance exam) . to get into any government college.

Eligibility for Mbbs: candidate should have cleared 10+2 exam with Physics, Chemistry and Biology (Zoology & Botany).

For more information, refer to this link:

Hope this helps!

All the best!

Dear Aspirant

I hope you are doing well

Now let me go through your question

Yes of course you can apply for it and you can go for basic sciences like zoology, botany or chemistry or even psychology and can get a bsc degree.  there are various courses which you can apply for example

B.Sc food science and nutrition

B.Sc Botany

B.Sc Zoology

Hi

You need to choose the code 02.

This is because,

Though you are doing BSc hons with subjects mentioned by you your highest qualification with all the three subjects i. e physics chemistry and Biology remains 10 + 2  .

While those who are doing bsc and have all the 3 i. e physics,chemistry and biology in bsc needs to choose code 5 and those who have completed bsc with at least any two out of physics,  chemistry and Biology in their bsc need to select code 6.
