To apply for most B.Sc. courses, you generally need at least 50% marks in your aggregate (total score) in your +2 or Intermediate Science exams. However, meeting the total percentage isn't enough; you must also meet "Hons. Specific" criteria. For example, to study BSc Physics at St. Xavier's College Ranchi, you need 50% in Physics and 45% in Mathematics.

Generally, B.Sc. courses are reserved for Science students, but B.Sc. Statistics is a unique exception. If you studied Commerce or Arts (with Economics) in 10+2, you can apply for Statistics provided you scored at least 40% in Mathematics and have a 50% overall aggregate. For other subjects like Botany, Zoology, or Geology, a Science background (PCB/PCM) is strictly mandatory because the advanced coursework builds directly on high school biology, chemistry, and physics concepts.

It is one of the larger departments in the Science faculty at St. Xavier's, but the high number of applicants still makes getting a BSc seat here a very competitive task for most students.
