Hello there,
As an OBC-NCL candidate with Biology, Chemistry, and English in CUET UG 2025, let’s check your eligibility for B.Sc. (Hons.) Biochemistry at Delhi University (DU) colleges and your chances of admission, keeping it short and simple.
-
Eligibility for B.Sc. (Hons.) Biochemistry at DU
:
-
Academic Requirement
: You need at least 55% aggregate in Class 12 in Chemistry, Biology/Biotechnology, and Physics/Mathematics, plus pass marks in English (ICSE background is fine). OBC-NCL gets a 5% relaxation, so 50% is enough.

CUET Subject Combination
: DU requires Physics + Chemistry + Biology/Biological Studies/Biotechnology/Biochemistry in CUET. You also need 30% in one language from List A (English qualifies).

Your Case
: You’ve taken Biology, Chemistry, and English, but
Physics is missing
. This makes you
ineligible
for B.Sc. (Hons.) Biochemistry unless DU relaxes the Physics requirement for 2025 (unlikely, based on past rules).
