Dear Sir My daughter-Age 23, has just completed her MCOM (Advanced Accountancy) with A+ Grades in Apr23, she was also pursuing Cost Accountancy (CMA) but suddenly stopped from Dec'21. She has given SET (Maharashtra) Exams for College Teachers eligibility and is also searching for a job in Finance but not getting any. However I as Father am worried that without professional qualifications what kind of career will she have. I am urging her to atleast do MBA-Finance/ CIMA/ CFA or a course in Data Analytics (she is good in Maths). Dont know how to guide/ motivate her into getting better qualified. Kindly advise.

Ans: Can write both CAT and GMAT. There are a lot of top colleges in India who conduct executive MBA course for students with more than 5 years work experience. So can apply to IIM A, B, C, ISB, XLRI, etc. Using GMAT score you can apply to foreign colleges like INSEAD, LSB, etc.

Ans: Rajesh Sir, 18-years is slightly early to start going to work. According to my opinion, let her enjoy her college life with CCET-BE-ECE. Also depends upon your family's economic condition & affordability to pay fees for her BE-ECE. Give authority to your daughter to take her own decision out of the two options. All the BEST for Your Daughter's Bright Future.

Ans: Hello Nitin.
Right now, your daughter is studying in just 8th std. On one side, you are saying that she has great grasping power but is poor in maths and scores less too. I would suggest as follows: (1) Just focus on the syllabus of 8th std and coming standards. (2) Ask her to do more writing practice to score more in exams (3) If she is weak in maths, then practice is the only solution for that. Ask her to do more practice on maths (4) Regarding her career options, it would not be better to discuss them at this early stage. Let her complete at least 10th std to assess her performance and her vision towards the upcoming future (5) Anybody with any stream, can now work in the computer and AI field. However she is more inclined towards these fields, then she has to study some computer languages and coding skills to master them. Even if she is struggling at this stage, then the same pattern doesn't need to continue in the future also. I have seen many cases, where a student was very weak in schooling but cracked JEE/NEET in 12th standard. Let us think positively about your daughter.
