My daughter has been homeschooled through IGCSE ( Cambridge board) and is presently preparing for her A level(12th) , she plans to do a bachelors degree in music production and then further pursue MBA in finance, could you please tell me if that is possible? and how should we go about with it?

Ans: A degree in music production, most likely will fall under the bachelors of music as opposed to Bachelors of arts in music. You can pursue an MBA in finance later provided your daughter gather some necessary pre requisites in computational and accounting math in the mean time. Also an MBA from a reputed college will require some work experience in the relevant field. I am not sure a degree in music production will lead you into a masters program in finance. I suggest you complete a masters in business and entrepreneurship, creative business, digital transformation, leadership and many more.

My daughter is in 10 th class Maharashtra board She wants to do carrier in mathematics or economics what are the ways for further education
Ans: Your daughter is interested in pursuing a career in Mathematics or Economics, which offer exciting opportunities and a variety of educational pathways. She can choose from the Science Stream (Mathematics Focus) or the Commerce Stream (Economics Focus), depending on her interests and aptitude.

An option for her is to choose Science with Mathematics in 11th and 12th grade, which will provide a strong foundation in math. After completing 12th Science with Mathematics, she can pursue a Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics, such as B.Sc. in Mathematics, B.Tech or B.E. (Engineering), or a B.Tech in Computer Science, Information Technology, or Electronics.

Postgraduate courses in Mathematics can lead to M.Sc. in Mathematics or Applied Mathematics, or M.Tech in Data Science or Computer Science. Other career paths in Mathematics include Actuarial Science, Data Science/Analytics, and pure mathematics/research.

In Economics, she can pursue Commerce with Economics in 11th and 12th grade, followed by a Bachelor's Degree in Economics, a Master of Arts in Economics, or a Master of Science in Economics. Specialized courses in Economics include Econometrics, Public Policy, Finance, and International Organizations/NGOs.

Joint careers in Mathematics and Economics can be pursued through integrated programs like B.A./B.Sc. in Mathematics and Economics, or Actuarial Science/Financial Mathematics. Entrance exams and competitive exams may be required for each path.

Pursuing Mathematics through the Science stream is an excellent path for your daughter, while Economics through the Commerce stream is ideal for those interested in understanding economies and global trends. All the BEST for Your Daughter's Prosperous Future.

Career
Can I get into some top 15 nits or top 7 iiits with 27903 obc rank 87903 crl rank for ece branch
Ans: With an OBC rank of 27,903 and a CRL rank of 87,903 for the ECE branch, securing a seat in the top 15 NITs or top 7 IIITs through JoSAA in 2025 is extremely unlikely. Recent cutoff trends indicate that the closing OBC ranks for Electronics and Communication Engineering at the premier NITs—such as Trichy, Warangal, Surathkal, Allahabad, Calicut, Rourkela, and Jaipur—are typically below 6,000 to 10,000, while even lower-tier NITs usually close below 13,000–17,000 for this branch. Similarly, for the top IIITs (Allahabad, Gwalior, Delhi, Jabalpur, Kancheepuram, Bangalore, Bhubaneswar), ECE cutoffs for OBC rarely exceed 11,000, and most close below 9,500, reflecting substantial competition and high applicant quality. Seat conversion for higher OBC ranks generally occurs only in newer or less sought-after NITs/IIITs or in special spot rounds, not at established top-tier institutes. Institutional excellence, industry partnerships, faculty profile, campus resources, and placement support in these institutions are closely tied to high entry cutoff ranks.

Recommendation: Focus on exploring newer NITs or IIITs, GFTIs, or state-level colleges where your OBC rank stands a realistic chance, as admission to ECE in top 15 NITs or top 7 IIITs for 2025 is statistically improbable; consider parallel options to maximize your academic and career opportunities. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!
