AFMC requires Mathematics in Class 10 for MBBS admission due to its military training focus, which demands analytical and logical reasoning skills. It helps in military suitability, ToELR tests, and defense-related tasks. Other medical colleges don’t require it since NEET admissions focus only on PCB (Physics, Chemistry, Biology) for medical studies.

Hello,

The Armed Forces Medical College (AFMC) requires mathematics as a compulsory subject in Class 10 for MBBS admission due to:

  1. Military Training – AFMC cadets undergo military training, which includes logical reasoning and problem-solving skills enhanced by mathematics.
  2. Analytical Skills – Mathematics strengthens analytical thinking, crucial for medical research and diagnostics.
  3. Defense-Specific Requirements – AFMC prepares students for armed forces medical services, requiring additional aptitude in calculations and logistics.
  4. Competitive Edge – Mathematics improves performance in entrance exams with physics and logical reasoning sections.
  5. Other Colleges Exclusion – Regular medical colleges focus only on biology, chemistry, and physics for medical education.

Hope you find it useful !
