• Cell Communication and Cell Signaling
• Developmental Biology
• System Physiology – Plant
• System Physiology – Animal
• Fundamental Processes
• Ecological Principles
• Evolution and Behavior
• Inheritance Biology
• Diversity of Life Forms
• Applied Biology

Hi.

Firstly in 12th exam you have secured 50% marks in physics, chemistry and biology related subject.

• Physics
• Chemistry
• Biology/Biological Studies/Biotechnology/Biochemistry (choose any one of these options as they are all accepted).

Candidates appearing for GATE 2026 XL paper can check the exam pattern below -

• General aptitude carries 15 marks
• Chemistry (compulsory) section comprises 17 questions carrying a total of 25 marks (9 questions of 1 mark and 8 questions of 2 marks)
• Each optional section (out of 2) in the GATE XL paper contains 19 questions of 30 marks (8 questions of 1 mark and 11 questions of 2 marks)
• Total time duration is three hours. 
• Exam mode is online.

Any candidate who wishes to switch the optional section during exam, must deselect the first one to answer. 

Admission to B.Sc Life Sciences at Kirori Mal College is based on CUET-UG scores. Candidates must meet the college's cut-off for their category. Selection depends on CUET performance, category-wise merit, and available seats during counselling rounds.

PUBDET syllabus for BSc in Life Science in 2025 includes

• Molecules and their Interaction Relevant to Biology
• Cellular Organization, Fundamental Processes
• Cell Communication and Cell Signaling
• Developmental Biology, System Physiology (Plant and Animal)
• Inheritance Biology
• Diversity of Life Forms
• Ecological Principles
• Evolution and Behavior
• Applied Biology
• Methods in Biology. 

It would be quite easy if you belongs to SC or ST cast at the marks or ranking. It is quite Easy to take admission, but if you belongs to OBC or any other caste, then it would not be so easy to get admission to JNU with CUETPG life Science marks.
You can try other Delhi University such as 
Jamia Millia Islamia (JMI)

Ambedkar University Delhi (AUD)

Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University (GGSIPU)

IGNOU (Indira Gandhi National Open University)

Yes, students with a background in nutrition, life sciences, or similar disciplines can enrol in the MSc Diabetology program. These fields offer a solid basis for comprehending metabolic health and diabetes management.
A bachelor's degree in biology, nutrition, microbiology, or biochemistry is typically accepted by universities, so it makes sense for people who wish to focus on diabetes treatment or research.

You can give it but it's a bit tricky. Life Science needs a strong bio background. If your M.Sc has biology related subjects or you did bio in undergrad then maybe yes. But if it's more physics/chem/tech focused then it might not count. Better to double-check once.
