Other than medicine and engineering, what other career options do I have after 12th standard? -Irfan Hussain
After 12th, there are a plethora of options you can choose from based on your aptitude, interest and personality. Your primary option should be to seek higher education by remaining in your chosen stream. If you have taken up science in 12th, then there are many professional and educational courses you can pursue further.
You can seek a degree in B Com (regular), B com (honors), B com (computers), B com (foreign trade), BBA, BMS, BBM, B A (mass communication/literature/public administration/sociology/History, Geography/ Political Science/Psychology/ languages/ Anthropology/ Human Resources/etc),etc arts/Humanities deals with a wide range of subjects. You can also pursue Economics (honors)
The demand for financial professionals is increasing rapidly; therefore you can hone your skills by joining a CA course that can be pursued simultaneously while doing a B com or a BA. Register for the Professional Education (PE)-I course (a 10-month course). You can also apply for CS (company secretary) course or for ICWA/CFP.
Another exciting and popular course would be the CFA (chartered financial analyst). To enroll in this, you need a bachelor’s degree in commerce and four years of work experience. The most sought after course would be MBA in finance (or in any other stream) after your B com/BA. You can also join the integrated MBA degree with a Bachelors degree in commerce.
Or go for a BA in your chosen subject or move on to professional courses after 12th, like Law, Management, Hotel Management, Design, Mass communication and Journalism etc. Most of these courses offer good career opportunities but choosing what matches your strengths is vital.
Professional courses mainly require an entrance test and if you cannot make it to them then take up a related graduation and take up that course in your PG. All you need to do is proper setting of goals, taking smart decisions and selecting a stream that matches your skill set and profession in demand.
Make the right decision at the right time and thoroughly explore the college and the available courses. Take up a psychometric test which will map your inherent aptitude, your personality and your interests. If you choose a course based on these three important attributes, then it becomes very simple and easy to utilise them to the fullest. If you are interested in joining the Armed forces then you can also sit for exams like UPSC. Vocational courses like Travel and Tourism and Office administration also offer good choices.
