Yes, you can opt for PCMB (Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Biology) in your 12th to widen your options for KCET (Karnataka Common Entrance Test) and increase your chances of getting into diverse fields. With PCMB, you are eligible for courses in both engineering (through Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics) and medical or life sciences (through Biology). This allows you to appear for multiple entrance exams, like KCET for both engineering and medical courses, as well as other options like biotechnology, pharmacy, or BDS. However, managing the extra subjects requires careful time management and focus, so ensure you're comfortable with the additional workload.

Applications for Admissions are open.
