I am in 12 th hsc board. I want to pursue either BMM or research in Life science. I want to drop Physics in 12 th. Is it possible?? if possible then what is the procedure.

Dear Aspirant,

You have clearly stated that you are in the 12th standard and so your subjects in the 12th, if the school were to allow it would only allow in your 11th.

Secondly you are talking to two totally diverse career routes, while one is talking of Mass Media the other is about Life Sciences which require you to study Physics.

We suggest you continue your studies in earnest and the confusion is about your career choice. One of the most difficult choices you need to make is a career choice and unfortunately our schools are not equipped to find out what each student is really good at and how to guide them. So we adopt the safest method which is, choosing professions that give the students a chance at success in life.  The better way is to find out what you really like to do or talent and then hunt for the courses that help build on this talent and excel in it. Here are some tips to find out:

• Do you have any particular talent that can become a profession?

• What are you really passionate about or really like to do?

• Are you willing to work hard to pursue your dreams?

• If you are unable to answer the above with clarity then what you can do is find out your strengths by doing the Myers Briggs Personality Test.  It can be done at a Career Counseling Centers.

Once you find out your strengths than choose a career that really suits. This will be a better way to solving this confusion.

Good Luck

hi aspirant,

Physics is compulsory subject in class 12 so you can't drop it but can take a additional optional subject life science as optional via applying to board if it is available .
