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: 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.

Ans: It's great that your daughter has clear career aspirations, but it's important to remember that there are multiple paths to achieving them. Here are some points to consider:

UPSC is a highly competitive exam, and the success rate is relatively low. So, it's always good to have a backup plan. While pursuing her studies, your daughter can also prepare for other government exams, such as the state civil services or bank exams, as these can also offer good career prospects. But here, it will be a 9 to 5 job, as you said she doesn't want a 9-5 job.

Also If she doesn't want a 9 to 5 job, then she can consider careers in law, journalism, or entrepreneurship. These fields offer a lot of flexibility and the opportunity to work on her own terms.

If she is good at maths but doesn't like to solve complex problems, then she can consider commerce as an option. A career in finance or accounting can be a good fit for her.

Humanities can also be a good option for her if she is interested in subjects like history, geography, or political science. These fields can also help her in her UPSC preparations.

Lastly, while earning lots of money is a valid goal, it's important to also consider other factors like job satisfaction and work-life balance. Your daughter should choose a career that aligns with her interests and passions, rather than just focusing on the financial aspect.

Overall, encourage your daughter to explore different fields and subjects, and to keep an open mind about her career options. With hard work and dedication, she can achieve success in any field she chooses.

Ans: Hi,
In +2 you can switch to the state board, whereas in you can keep bio & math both. Let her complete 10th we will discuss again about this.

Ans: Bala Sir,

(1) Now itself, please go for a 'Psychometric Test' for her, which will recommend the top 5 streams suitable for her, based on her Aptitude, Attitude, Interest, Pesonality & Orientation Style.
(2) It is also advisable to prepare for Entrance Exams, based on Psychometric Test Result, from 10th itself if possible. If not, definitely from 11th.
(3) If she is weak in Maths, she should definitely attempt CUET exam to get admission into any one of the Central or State Universities for 3-Year Degree programs, based on Psychometric Test Recommendations.
(4) Due to peer influence, most students get confused about which career path to choose.
(5) As such, Psychometric Test will be the only solution.

All the BEST for Your Daughter's Bright Future.
