Indeed, some institutions accept NEET scores for admission into the B Pharmacy program, but this is not widespread.

To apply for B Pharmacy, you usually need to be at least 17 years old when you join. This makes sure students are ready for the course and the work that comes with it.
Some colleges might have their own age rules, so it's smart to check the specific university or entrance exam requirements before applying.

Usually, Arts students can't jump straight into B Pharmacy because you need a 12th-grade Science background—Physics, Chemistry, and either Biology or Math.
But if an Arts student has taken Bio or Math as an extra subject and ticks the other eligibility boxes, some colleges might still let them in.

Mathematics is not strictly mandatory for the B Pharmacy course, but having a background in Mathematics can be beneficial, especially for certain subjects. The eligibility criteria typically require candidates to have completed 12th grade with Physics, Chemistry, and Biology or Mathematics.
While Biology is preferred for a more comprehensive understanding of pharmacology and medicinal sciences, Mathematics is helpful in areas like pharmaceutical calculations, statistics, and drug formulation.
