I finished my class 12 this year. My subjects were PCB with biotech. I want to pursue biotech in future but I am confused between B.tech and B.Sc    . My maths is weak so I wanted to know if doing B.tech would be fine or not ??

Hello Ambeshwar,

You will have to face sufficient mathematics related subjects in B.tech. But none of them are hardcore/extremely tough ones. The core mathematics you face in B.Tech, mostly pertains to Differentiation, Integration, Probability, Statistics. Then there are courses like Fluid Mechanics as well. I had a PCB background as well, but I was able to find interest in the level of Mathematics that was taught to us (with an extra effort, you can easily make up for it). But, it would definitely require some sincerity and lot of questioning from your teachers (no matter how stupid a question might appear).

If you really think that Mathematics is not at all your forte, then BSc would be appropriate (though it would land you in complete research based/ teaching based career).

You can get an idea of your Mathematics skills through your interest in Physics of class XI and XII. If you find it interesting, then I'm sure you would be able to handle the mathematics in B.Tech as well.

Hope it helps

Best wishes
