Most universities demand students who hold 10+2 higher secondary education certification along with science subjects to enter BSc MSc programs. Students who wish to study BSc biology need to graduate from 10+2 in biology while chemistry BSc students must come from 10+2 chemistry background and physics BSc students must have studied 10+2 physics. A student needs to maintain university-defined minimum aggregate marks beyond their higher secondary education completion.
Student admission to MSc programs demands undergraduate completion of BSc with subjects related to the program they applied for. The level of competition in a program determines whether universities will ask aspiring students to pass entrance exams or interviews. Under special circumstances there are specific age restrictions and reserved category policy exceptions that exist across several institutions. Students must check the precise admission criteria of the chosen program because universities might have variable entrance specifications.
