Career Guidance For 8th, 9th & 10th
Choosing the right career path is one of the most important decision a student makes. While it may seem early, students in 8th, 9th, and 10th grades should start exploring different career options to make informed choices about their future. Early planning helps students align their education with their interests and skills, ensuring they make the best decisions when selecting streams after the 10th standard.
We start the career planning early in order for us to have better awareness and understanding of available career options, which allow students to set a clear goal.
As student may have chosen a path by selecting a stream during early years, or have more liking towards a particular subject like PCB or PCM, commerce arts etc. It is also important to know the future career path based on the choices made. With the right assessment test we can help student identify the stream selection.
