PCB TO BBA
PCB student taking a drop year and switching to BBA — what should I study beforehand?
Hi everyone! I’m a PCB (Physics, Chemistry, Biology) student and I’m currently taking a drop year after Class 12. I’ve decided that I probably don’t want to continue in the medical/science field and am considering switching to BBA for my undergraduate degree.
I haven’t decided on a specialization yet, but Digital Marketing is one option I’m considering.
Since I’m coming from a completely science/PCB background and haven’t studied Commerce or Business Studies before, I’m a little worried about the transition. I want to use my drop year productively and learn some basics beforehand so that I don’t feel completely lost when BBA starts.
What should I start studying right now to make the transition from PCB → BBA easier?
For example:
Basic accounting/finance?
Business studies/management concepts?
Economics?
Marketing fundamentals?
Excel?
Digital marketing?
Any specific YouTube courses/books you’d recommend?
Are there any concepts that BBA students are generally expected to already know?
I’m not trying to study the entire BBA syllabus in advance — I just want to build a good foundation and understand the basics before college starts.
Would really appreciate advice from anyone who has done BBA, especially people who also came from a science/PCB
