can i exlude english and choose bengali as my subject preference for josaa councelling
Hello Renuka,
Indeed, for your JoSAA counselling, you may select Bengali as your subject preference instead of English, as long as Bengali is listed as one of the acceptable subjects by the particular institution or program applying to. Subject eligibility varies by institution and course so it is important be clear about the JoSAA Business Rules or check the eligibility of individual institutions (like IITs, NITs, IIITs) for the specific subject eligible requirements.
No, JoSAA counselling does not involve selecting academic subjects like English or Bengali. It only concerns choosing your preferred institutes and engineering programmes (branches) based on your JEE Main or Advanced rank. You cannot opt out of English or replace it with Bengali, as language mediums are standardized across all participating institutes and not part of the choice filling process
