Dear Monika,

10th standard is the turning point in any student's life.

you have all the options open for you

According to your interest and aptitude you can choose your options.

If you think that you have a science temper then you can opt for biology

If you are good with numbers, then you can opt for maths stream

If you are good with human interaction and people, then humanities is your stream

And if you think, you are good in keeping money and you have an enterprising nature then you should think of commerce stream.

If confusion still persists then it would be better to take a psychometric assessment and then decide upon.

Hope this helps

Happy career planning

Hello Monika, 

Just adding to what the above counselor has mentioned. 

Please do not select a career based on your score or percentage or family or friends or trending careers. Select purely on the basis of your interest, your skills and ability. 

I would suggest Self introspection as to what you like or what comes naturally to you, your skills etc and then make a choice. 

Best is an Aptitude test or career counseling test available here at mera career. The test would highlight your potentials and interest which will help you make a confirmed choice. 

But it does not stop there. Next step would be a research or reading on the careers as to what the career entails.

Hope this helps.

Wish you good luck...

Dear Aspirant,

Very nice question and an important one too. I thank you and feel glad that you chose to approach CareerGuide to seek guidance instead of choosing randomly and repenting later.

Choosing a stream among Commerce, Arts, Science, Engineering is critical and should be definitely done very carefully.

Generally, after 10th, the stream should be chosen on the basis of your competence subjects till 10th like Science, History, Civics, Languages, etc. However that should not be the only criteria to judge in order to be able to choose a stream correctly. There are many other factors apart from percentage, marks, that are important and should be considered before deciding the career stream after 10th.

For this, CareerGuide.com has a unique psychometric test called as Stream Selector Test. This is a scientific test which will assess your real aptitude, interests, passion, likings, innate abilities, thinking, etc. Deciding on these parameters is the right way to choose a career. The report gets generated instantly and you can speak to me over phone to discuss.

Best wishes
