Yes you rightly said, technical qualification is must to become patent agent exam. I think you might do a correspondence course in science. However, you must check the recogination of such course by AICTE and UGC.

Dear Mahek


Advocate has more professional rights than patent agent. For filing purpose one has to become agent. But when opposition or litigation comes. Agent cannot have a right to fight. One has to retain advocate for this purpose. so dear, do not worry for becoming patent agent.
