PCB(Physics, Chemistry, Biology)

After completion of your class 10 exams, the 1st biggest decision you face in your life is which stream to choose. This decision could affect your career. So, choose wisely.

Alingua Public School, located in Kisola, Siyana, Bulandshahr, clearly has a well-defined Department of Science. The school explicitly lists "Department of Science" as one of its academic departments.
Alingua Public School provides a structured environment for science education with the necessary infrastructure (labs) to support hands-on learning in Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. Their offering of both (PCM) and (PCB) streams means they cater to students with diverse aspirations in STEM fields.

In the context of school, PCB stands for Physics, Chemistry, Biology. It's a subject combination offered in the Science stream, typically for students in Class 11 and 12.

What is PCB?

• Physics: Deals with the fundamental principles of the universe, including matter, energy, motion, and force.
• Chemistry: Focuses on the composition, structure, properties, and reactions of matter.
• Biology: Explores the study of living organisms, their structure, function, growth, origin, evolution, and distribution.

When to opt for PCB subjects class 11?

If your dream is to become a doctor, then it’s a requirement that you need to take medical stream (PCB). If you are clear that Math is not your cup of tea, you don’t have much desire to pursue engineering, and you like studying Biology, in that case, a medical stream is a good option for you to opt for the PCB(Medical stream)in class 11th.

• Do you like Biology subject?
• Are you interested in Life Science?
• Are you clear in your mind that you want to pursue medical line?
• Is getting into NEET your dream?

Then you are good to opt for the PCB in class 11th.

Subjects Offered in PCB in Alingua Public School

Why do students choose PCB?

The primary reason students choose PCB is to keep their career options open.

• Medical and Healthcare Aspirations: PCB is the primary pathway for students aspiring to become doctors, dentists, nurses, pharmacists, or pursue other careers in the healthcare sector.
• Interest in Life Sciences: If a student has a strong curiosity about living organisms, the human body, ecosystems, and biological processes, PCB provides an in-depth understanding.
• Preparation for Medical Entrance Exams: It directly prepares students for competitive entrance examinations like NEET (National Eligibility cum Entrance Test) in India, which is mandatory for admission to MBBS and BDS courses.

Career Options after Class XII in PCB:

The PCB stream opens doors to a wide range of career opportunities, predominantly in the medical and life sciences fields:

• Medicine: MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery), BDS (Bachelor of Dental Surgery), BAMS (Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery), BHMS (Bachelor of Homeopathic Medicine and Surgery), BUMS (Bachelor of Unani Medicine and Surgery).
• Allied Health Sciences
• Life Sciences and Research
• Agriculture and Food Science:
• Other fields (some non-traditional for PCB students): Psychology, Nutrition, Public Health. Some universities might allow PCB students to pursue BBA or even Law degrees.

Hence, students can choose the PCB stream based on their genuine interest in biology and a clear career aspiration in medical or life sciences, as it can be demanding and requires strong memorization and analytical skills.
