Yes, the Psychology labs at Chandigarh University are generally described as well‑equipped and practical for student learning and experimentation. Here's a clear picture:

Hi.

In raw marks (out of ~800):

  • Very good chance: 600–700+

  • Decent chance: 520–600

  • Borderline: below 500

 BA LLB is competitive, so higher GT + English score matters a lot.

For BA (Programme) (NOT Hons)

You can apply for BA Programme in many universities.

 Required Score

  • 70–85 percentile is usually enough

  • Raw marks: 500–600+

 For BA (Hons) Political Science / History (DU)

Not possible at DU, because:

  • You did not study Polity or History in Class 12

  • DU requires the same domain subject

(Some other universities may allow it, but DU does not.)

 What Matters MOST for You

Since you don't have Polity/History:

Focus on BA LLB

  • Maximize E

Hi.

Yes, PCM students can apply for BA LLB and BA (Hons) through CUET-UG, but subject choice is very important.

 CUET Subjects for BA LLB (5-year integrated)

Most central universities (like DU, BHU, AMU, AU, etc.) follow this pattern:

Compulsory Subjects

  1. Language (Any ONE)

    • English (recommended)

    • or Hindi / other listed languages

  2. General Test (GT)  Very important for BA LLB

Optional / Domain Subjects

  • ANY 2 domain subjects

  • Since you are from PCM, you can choose:

    • Mathematics

    • Physics

    • Chemistry

 You do NOT need Polity or History for BA LLB if you haven't studied them in Class 12.

 Recommended CUET Combo for BA LLB (PCM student)

  • English

Well, to become a doctor, Medical Anthropology is the only choice you have. You'll study how to address the wellness of people within the context of cultural, historical, and political forces.
Biological/Physical Anthropology and Forensic Anthropology are also great choices in my opinion, if you're looking for a pre-med field.

For the MA in Anthropology admission, the most important exam you can prepare for is CUET-PG. It is a national-level exam accepted by hundreds of top colleges across India. 

Second, you can prepare for university-level tests if you have a specific college in mind and it conducts its own exam. Next, you can also prepare for state-level exams like Orissa SAMS, Andhra Pradesh PGCET, etc.
