Hey everyone,

I’m currently in Class 12 (Commerce stream) with an 80% aggregate, but I’ve realized I have zero interest in the commerce field. I want to pursue EEE at BITS, and I am seriously considering a total pivot to PCM to make this happen.

I know this sounds crazy, but I’m ready to dedicate myself fully for the next 9 months. My plan is to take Class 12 again with PCM through NIOS.

1-Feasibility: Is it realistically possible to cover the entire PCM syllabus from scratch and reach the cutoff for a competitive branch like EEE in BITS in just 9 months?

2-The NIOS Factor: Since I’ll be doing my 12th through NIOS, is this board officially accepted by BITS for their admission requirements?

3-The "Gap"Reality: Coming from a commerce background, what are the biggest hurdles I’ll face with JEE/BITSAT-level physics and math? How can I catch up on the conceptual foundation quickly?

4-Strategy: If you were in my shoes, what would your 9-month "survival" study plan look like? What high-yield topics should I prioritize first to actually stand a chance?

I’m not looking for sugar-coated encouragement; I need a reality check on whether this is a viable path or a complete pipe dream. If anyone has experience making a transition from a non-science stream to an engineering college, I would love to hear how you did it.

Thanks in advance for the guidance.

Is there anyone here who studies at TIMIT or TMU? Please let me know.

Switching from Commerce to PCM (via NIOS) for BITSAT (EEE) Is this a realistic 9 month pivot? hai ??
