Hello Pranav,

This is a general confusion with students. SInce students would like to keep all the options open and not be restricted to just one stream later post 12th.

Here doing a self analysis is important and most importantly being honest is important.
Are you a technical person???
Do you like to handle machines and explore them???
Does the human body and mind intrude you???
Do you like Research???

Generally I would advise students to opt for all the 4 subjects and then based on their interests choose a stream further on

Options under PCM includes:

  • Engineering
  • Gaming
  • Computer Science

Options under PCB includes:
- Medical
- Para Medical
- Botany

Options under PCMB includes:
- Pharmacy
- Biomedical Sciences
- Biotechnology
- Microbiology

I would also recommend reading and making notes about each stream individually and if possible discuss with professionals and or professors.

Hope this helps.
Wish you good luck...

You should consider when choosing one of these two types as it depends on your purpose

. PCM is a power management circuit, commonly used in lithium-ion, lithium-polymer batteries. fall guys to protect against overcurrent, overvoltage, overheating, or short circuits. And PCB is a printed circuit board, where you can attach electronic components to create a complete circuit.

Choosing between PCM (Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics) and PCB (Physics, Chemistry, Biology) depends on your interests and career aspirations. If you are passionate about fields related to engineering, technology, or mathematics, PCM might be the right choice for you. On the other hand, if you are interested in medicine, pharmacy, or biology, PCB would be a better fit.

You can also try playing the game color block jam level to relax and find some inspiration. Sometimes, a little entertainment can help you gain clarity about your decision!
