Hello,

No, PCM (Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics) in 11th and 12th is not compulsory for Interior Design but is required for Architecture .

Architecture (B.Arch) – PCM is Compulsory

• To pursue a Bachelor of Architecture (B.Arch) , Mathematics is mandatory in Class 12 .

• You must clear NATA (National Aptitude Test in Architecture) or JEE Main Paper 2 for admission to top colleges.

• Eligibility: 10+2 with PCM (minimum 50% marks) or a 10+3 Diploma with Mathematics .

Interior Design – PCM is Not Required

• For Diploma, B.Sc, or B.Des in Interior Design , students from any stream (Science, Commerce, Arts) can apply.

• No specific entrance exam is mandatory, but some institutes conduct their own tests or interviews.

• Top Institutes: NID, NIFT, Pearl Academy, INIFD, CEPT, etc.

Conclusion:

• If you want to do Architecture (B.Arch), PCM is mandatory .

• If you want to do Interior Design, PCM is not required ; you can apply after 12th in any stream .

Hello,

No, it is not compulsory to take PCM (Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics) in 11th for interior designing . However, for architecture, mathematics is mandatory.

If you want to do B.Arch (Bachelor of Architecture) , you must have Mathematics as a subject in 12th, as it is required for entrance exams like NATA and JEE Main Paper 2 .

For Interior Designing , you can choose any stream (Science, Commerce, or Arts) in 11th and 12th. Most interior design courses do not require specific subjects.

Hope it helps !
