recently my son gave 10th board exams.. He is interested to do science.. Can you please guide for various options after 10th if its science field

Ans: You have mentioned that your daughter is NOT interested & you want to know about other better career options in Science.

Here are some TOP Career options (other than Medicine & Engineering through JEE & NEET) in Science:

IISER (Indian Institute of Science Education & Research) :

It offers BS-MS Dual Degree (RESEARCH-Based) 5-Year Programmes for Science Students. Your daughter can get admission through IISER’s own Admission Test (IAT) into any of the programs offered by IISER, having 7 branches at Berhampur, Bhopal, Kolkata, Mohali, Pune, Thiruvananthapuram, and Tirupati.

PURE SCIENCE Courses:

Other than IISER, there are a lot of Pure Science Courses, available for your daughter such as, BSc (Hons), Bachelor of Statistics (suitable as your daughter is good in Maths), BSc+MSc (Integrated Bachelor & Master of Science) with following Specialisations, offered by different Universities:

Anthropology | Biochemistry | Exercise & Sports Science | Forensic Science | Agriculture | Bioinformatics | Forestry | Microbiology | Physical Sciences | Sericulture | Dairy Technology | Statistics | Physics | Applied Physical Science | Biotechnology | Life Sciences | Natural Sciences | Botany | Environmental Science | Home Science | Nursing | Biotechnology.

It is suggested to attempt a ‘Psychometric Test” for your daughter to know her level of Aptitude, Attitude, Interest, Personality Traits & Orientation Style to choose a right & most suitable Course among the options available in Pure Science.

Some of the Entrance Exams, your daughter can choose to appear for getting admission into any Pure Science Courses, mentioned above:

KVPY
IAT
NEET-UG (for Pure Science Courses with Some Universities
CUET (for Getting Admission into any one of the Central Universities in India)
BITSAT
& Other State Entrance Exams.

It is advisable for your daughter to get admission into any ONE of the Top-ranked Universities / Colleges / Institutes for pursuing her studies in Science. SOME of them are:

1) IISC, Bengaluru
2) IITs / NITs (For Pure Science Courses)
3) IISER (Having 7-Branches all over India)
4) University of Mumbai (Dept. of Atomic Energy), Mumbai
5) NISER, Bhubaneswar
6) Chennai Mathematical Institute, Chennai
7) Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata
8) Madras Christian College, Chennai
9) Christ University, Bengaluru
10) Mirinda House, Delhi

Please note, JEE & NEET are conducted NOT only for Engineering & Medicinal Courses but also for Pure Science Programs. Your daughter, to get admission into any one of the some top Institutes, will need JEE / NEET Score for admission into Pure Science Courses.

Also, it is ideal to prepare for Entrance Exams from her 11th standard now, either online or offline, to be competitive, to get admission into any top-ranked University / College / Institute in India, to get placed through CAMPUS Recruitment.

Hope I have clarified your doubts for your daughter.

Ans: Nilisha Madam, he can go for IAT Test for admission into any one of the Branches of IISER or IISc or IIT-M for Research Related Programs which might be suitable for him. Just prepare him for IAT Entrance Exam. Have a back-up by applying to CUET for 3-year UG program also. All the BEST for Your Son's Bright Future.

Ans: Hello Srinivasan.
I am glad to hear that your son is exploring diversified fields at this early stage. Astrophysics and Microbiology both are fascinating and rewarding paths, but they differ significantly in terms of the career options and the type of studies involved.
My suggestion for your son would be to focus only on the NEET examination at this stage. There is no need to divert the mind without any reason at this stage. After the NEET examination is over, you have ample time to discover more career options along with Astrophysics and Microbiology. The inclination toward career options of a student changes multiple times during the 11th and 12th. If he is brilliant, a hard worker, and dedicated to his studies, then set a goal of Min 650 marks in the NEET examination.
For Astrophysics: Focus on excelling in Physics and Maths in XII. He can apply to top institutions like IISc, IITs, or IISERs for B.Sc. programs.
For Microbiology: Prepare for NEET if he wants to take the medical path. Otherwise, he can explore a B.Sc. in Microbiology at a reputable university.

Best of luck for his future career and upcoming NEET examination.
