Answer: What is Pre University Course mean?

The Pre-University Course or Pre-Degree Course (PUC or PDC) is an Intermediate Course (which is known as 10+2) of two years' duration, refers to Class 11th and Class 12th and called as 1st PUC and 2nd PUC respectively in the PU Colleges or Junior Colleges and are conducted by state education institutions or boards in India. This pre-university course is also known as the Plus-two or Intermediate/HSC course. A person desiring admission to an Indian university must pass this course, which can be considered as a degree bridge course to prepare students for university education.

Admission to this course is based on marks obtained for the Secondary School Leaving Certificate, awarded after successful completion of five years of primary school, followed by five years of secondary school. The Indian education system follows a 10+2+3 (4 or 5) pattern, so that a bachelor's degree requires a minimum of 10 years of primary and secondary schooling, plus two years of Higher Secondary Schooling is HSC in Schools (schooling till 12th Grade)or Higher Secondary Education is PUC/Inter in PU Colleges (schooling till 10th Grade and 11th&12th in PU or Junior colleges) in different regions and states, plus either three, four or five years at university. Colleges offering a pre-university course are known as PU Colleges or Junior colleges in India.

For example, the state of Karnataka conducts examinations at the end of the second year of the PUC for university admissions. This has three program streams with options focusing on science, commerce and arts, respectively. Students desiring to study professional programs in Karnataka must pass the science stream of this exam and qualify through the Common Entrance Test of the state. Recently, the Karnataka PUC Board made the first-year PUC exams public, to filter out low-scoring students and improve overall average scores. Only about 40% of students usually pass the exam, and only about 1.5% score above 85% overall.
