Why shouldn't you choose SCIENCE as a stream of study!!!!

This article is for students especially of class X. I am writing this article according to what I have experienced and seen. I want to make bring you out of the misconception that if you are good in studies you should opt for the Science stream or if you want to be successful opt for Science. These are completely misconceptions. I think I should cite here the example of a student, I am not going to mention his name, who secured 95% in his HSLC i.e. matriculation and so everyone forced him (you may say) to opt for science though he was a student of Arts. He was very good in English. He used to win competitions like quiz just like a joke. He had a collection of trophies. What happened to him in Class XII, he passed out with just 68%, yet having letter marks in English. So after XII he realized his mistake and then went for B.A. instead of B.Sc. and was later on successful.

So, I just want to tell everyone that being good or weak in studies doesn’t choose your stream. Even weak students can do well in the so called hard stream, Science. What do you think, is science the only tuff stream? No, all streams are hard in their own way. Being a student of the commerce stream I should say here that Accountancy is not an easy subject, nor is any other subject, if you don’t study sincerely and no subject is hard if you study sincerely.

Regarding career in the streams I should say this. Recently, a meeting was held among many great personalities who are successful in their own lives and many educationists. The result was that students of Arts have the most career options, then commerce and then comes Science.

Now, what stream to opt and how. First try to finalize an aim in life and then talk to teachers, parents and other elders or experienced persons regarding what should be done. And while finalizing your aim, don’t forget to think of your interests and other important things. Here is one more example; some think that you can become an engineer only from science. I recently came to know that you can go for engineering i.e. Computer Engineering from any stream if you have Mathematics as one of your Subject at 10+2 level.

So, finally, I think, after reading this article, you must be thinking that the writer i.e. me is an oppossor of Science. Its not so, I agree that Science is a very good stream, but remember other streams are also not bad. One more thing which I have seen being common among the students of Science stream is dropping year after year and going for coaching to get admission in a good institute, especially those who opt for professional courses like engineering and medical.

So, opt for the correct stream and don’t be disheartened later on. I have seen many students changing streams again and again. Try not to do that, just opt for the best stream you can do.
