If you love to know the scientific facts, if you believe in experimenting, if you like to play with numbers and calculations, then science is definitely your cup of tea. Studying science in classes 8, 9 and 10 may have given you an idea of what wonders this subject can make you do.

It is rightly said – science is  boon to mankind. Today’s generation which is said to be a ‘technical generation’ may have been impossible without science. So, if you plan to do something new, something great, something different then opt for science as your core subject.

In essence, science comprises of two streams – medical and non medical. If you plan to pursue medical science after class 12th, then you should opt for biology, physics and chemistry (PCB) as your core subjects. For students who plan to excel in the field of engineering should opt for physics, chemistry and mathematics. (PCM). There are some students who opt for physics, chemistry, biology and maths (PCMB) in order to appear for entrance exams of both medical and non medical streams and to enhance their chances of admission to a good college.

Medical science – It is a study about living organisms, diagnosis of diseases in them, their treatment as well as their prevention.

Engineering – It is a study including calculations and application of scientific method for the sake of development and invention.

Below mentioned are some important topics for the subjects physics, chemistry, mathematics & biology that students are expected to learn and understand. This may give you an understanding of these subjects and help you decide your subjects and career stream.
