Subject: Guidance for studying abroad and scholarship opportunities Dear Career Counsellor, I'm reaching out for guidance on behalf of my son, who recently passed his SSC (MH Board) with 91% and aspirations to study business management abroad after his 12th grade. As a middle-class family, we're looking for economical options with scholarship opportunities. Considering his strengths in maths and science, we're unsure whether to opt for the commerce stream in 11th grade. Please advise: 1. Suitable countries for affordable studies in business management 2. Scholarship opportunities available for Indian students 3. Recommendations for the 11th grade stream (commerce or otherwise) aligning with his interests and strengths Thank you for your valuable guidance and support. Best regards,

Ans: Hello,

First of all, thank you for reaching out to us and congratulations to your son on his outstanding SSC results. To answer your question, given your son’s strong academic record and aspirations in business management, I would suggest considering countries like Germany, Canada, the USA, and the UK. Germany and Canada offer relatively low tuition fees with scholarship opportunities, such as the DAAD for Germany, while the USA and UK, though higher in costs, provide various merit-based scholarships. In particular, the USA offers the potential for high-paying jobs after graduation, which can help recoup the investment in education very quickly. For the 11th-grade stream, considering his strengths in mathematics and science, opting for the commerce stream with mathematics would be a solid choice. This would provide him with a strong foundation for business management while keeping future options open. Additionally, incorporating subjects like economics could further complement his interests and prepare him for the business field. I wish him all the best in his academic journey.

My son has got 91 percentile in the recent jee exam , he has next attempt in april, but i feel its difficult for him , can i know about other good colleges in karnataka , as im based their. interested in computer science and aeronautical degree, also advise some recent good courses for his career in india.
Ans: Hello Manoj.
Do not get stressed at this stage. Even though his score is 91 percentile in 1st attempt, he can do well in 2nd attempt. But from the safer side, ask him to appear in the Karnataka State Engineering Entrance Examination also. Even if he scores less in JEE on 2nd attempt, he may good college via the state entrance examination in CSE or aeronautical engineering as per your wish. For your reference, there are 10 colleges in India where you can get admission without a JEE score. To know more details, please copy and paste the following link into your browser- https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/education/news/10-engineering-colleges-in-india-for-pursuing-btech-without-jee-main-2025-score/articleshow/118162587.cms.
There are no such courses to be called as recent. The choice of courses depends upon the interest of your son. Hence there is no need to hurry and get into panic at this stage. Let him appear for both exams first, Ask about his interests, and then choose the course accordingly. I would be happy to suggest you after knowing his scores in JEE+State entrance + his liking.
Till then, ask him to focus only on two engineering entrance exams. Best of luck to your son for upcoming exams.

If satisfied with the reply, please like and follow me, else ask again.
Thanks
Radheshyam
