Dear Gurpreet, 

As per your class 12 percentage which is 91%, you are eligible to apply for B.Sc Nursing admission to the college, if you had Physics, Chemistry, Biology or Biotechnology as one of the subjects and English as a compulsory subject. A candidate with 50% in class 12 with PCB and English is eligible for the course, and your percentage is much higher than the minimum requirement. However, the final selection for the Government Medical College Patiala admission for the B.Sc Nursing course will be based on the NEET or PPMET score followed by the national level counselling. 

Hope this helps! Please feel free to contact for any further clarification!
