10th Grade Son Wants to be a Doctor, Confused About NEET & Engineering - What Should He Choose?

Ans: Sir,
I would like to differ that NEET will be challenging for IGCSE board students. If you feel so, you can change the board to CBSE after the 10th in 11-12th wherein they will follow the NCERT curriculum, which will help in NEET too.

Now coming to the point that he is an average student, it doesn't matter sir. NEET does not test boards they need only 60% of boards and PCB to be safe. As you said he is interested in pursuing NEET so there won't be any pressure for him as he will be following his choice and passion.

If you further want to be sure then you can check in your city for DMIT.
Dermatoglyphics Multiple Intelligence Test (DMIT) is a test based on the fingerprints of the person. Through studies, it has been proved that these fingerprints can reveal a lot of information regarding the person such as IQ, EQ, CQ, AQ, his strong areas, weak areas, his natural inclinations, best possible ways of learning methods for him, his personality and much more. Such information plays a key role in deciding a career.
