Hi Sir, My daughter is confused about which subject to choose after 10th. Need your expert advice here. Below are her traits and career aspiration: # First choice of her career is to appear in UPSC and be a IAS/IPS. But, has a fear about not clearing it, than what? So, other option should be open. # She dont want to have a 9 to 5 Job. # She is good at Maths but she dont like to solve complex problems. # Confused with Bio/Commerce and humanities which one would be good for her ? # at last, she want to earn lots of money ?

Ans: Hi Soni

Based on the information that you have provided, I feel humanities will be a good fit for her. Commerce has a lot of accounting math. I am not sure if she will enjoy that. With humanities, she can study social sciences / liberal arts and simultaneously prepare for UPSC. As a second option, she can then try for entrepreneurship related areas where she has freedom and flexibility. I would also urge to identify any creative pursuits if she has. Creative careers are on the rise and also pay well.

Hello Sir, my daughter is appearing 12th board this year. She has Physics, Chemistry, Biology with Psychology. She was very interested to go medical but now she is refusing to do Medical. She says she does not want to go in boring life, Bio is too much learning. She wants to opt maths with computer science in her graduation. She is very good in study , got 98% in her 10th. she is studying maths with her friend, and she is very happy with Maths. Please suggest which career she should be opted.

Ans: Hello A,

To begin with, your daughter’s career cannot be determined solely by her interests. Talent and personality also play a key role and must be taken into consideration. Before deciding on a career path, it is important to take an aptitude test. Data Analytics and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are two careers that can be followed with a degree in computer science. Statistical and actuarial sciences are typically recognized as attractive career options.
