How to decide what stream suits you


The absolute best part about appearing for the 10th standard exams is the 3 months of vacation that follows. After working so hard throughout the year, students get the opportunity to relax in their own preferred way. Whether it is hanging out with their family, hanging out with their friends, travelling or going to exotic places, it could be anything. The purpose of it is to destress yourself and prepare for a new adventure with a fresh mind.

However, students also have to decide how they plan to move forward - by choosing one of the 3 streams from Science, Arts, and Commerce. It can always be a massive conundrum for students who haven’t prepared for the long term. They are so lost in enjoying their vacations that by the time the results are announced and admissions start, students start panicking over which stream to choose. Some listen to their parents, some blindly follow their friends and as a result of that, they begin to regret it later. So how to avoid this situation? It is by looking for signs in students that seem the best fit for a particular stream and will help you choose amongst the top PUC colleges in Bangalore and elsewhere. Let’s take a look at that.

1. Science

Students who wish to take science need to have their base strong in subjects like Math, Biology (or computer science), Physics and Chemistry. Having an analytical mind is not a prerequisite but having one will be appreciated, which will help you ease into the subjects.

The concepts of Math, Physics and Chemistry in college aren’t anything you have learned in school. There will be certain topics where you have to start from scratch. If you are comfortable with all these subjects, only then its advisable for you to take science as your stream.

2. Commerce

Just like science, commerce has Math too but unlike the former, you have the option of not taking Math by choosing Secretarial Practice or SP. Commerce is basically for people with a penchant for finance and those who are good with numbers. Students have to be good at learning theoretical concepts, as well as understanding data, in order to maintain a tally sheet. Students will also learn an advanced level of economics, compared to what they had in school. The Indian market is in need of commerce graduates. Do take up commerce if the signs point to it.

3. Arts

Ah, Arts. The Achilles heel of every Indian parent. Fortunately, with passing time, the misconception has reduced significantly. More and more students are taking Arts as a stream, hoping to make a career in journalism or law.

The signs to look out for? Students who are heavily invested in reading and creative writing. The subject of History can be a really good indicator for the reading part. Students who also love to talk in an articulate manner and love to debate for and against established facts can also take up Arts and make a career out of it in the future.

Conclusion

Students are highly motivated in choosing one of the best PUC colleges in Bangalore and elsewhere. It will only be helpful for them if they apply the same attitude towards choosing a stream.
