Hi,

Following are the criteria for getting admission for the B.SC nutrition and diabetes course:

  1. Minimum age required: 18
  2. The candidate is required to score an aggregate of 50% in their 12th standard with PCB subjects.

As you are from a commerce background, you can't do B.SC directly, but there's a way by which you can do B.SC.

While completing your B.COM course, you can appear for the 12th standard open book board exam with PCB subjects. There are many recognized open book boards in India. You can choose one of your convenience.  Also, don't drop your B.COM graduation, it can help you in the future.

Thanks!

Hello aspirant!

I would like to clear it out to you that, coming from a commerce background, you cannot pursue Bsc in Nutrition and Dietics, as you need to have a minimum of 50% from science stream in your 12th boards. If you have completed your 12th from science stream then you can pursue Bsc in Nutrition.

Hope this was helpful to you.
