Career Counselling for Class 10th Students - What
Next after SSC?
All the students of
Class 10th are currently preparing for the upcoming board examinations.
Students have no time to think about the next step they are about to take i.e.
selecting the stream to study in Intermediate. Choosing the
right stream has a long lasting impact on a student’s future. Even parents
have a crucial role in building students career. Selection of the career after
10th class is a transition period for both students and parents. Class
10th is the foundation for every student’s career. Intermediate is the first
step that is to be taken by the student towards his goal. Students must take
the right decision while choosing the stream for intermediate. One wrong
decision can change the future career path of the student. Before taking any
decision while choosing the stream, students have to get the clear picture of
the future path and get full details of the streams available.
Students need to self
analyse themselves. They need to understand their interest and skills. They
have to question themselves:
1) My interest?
2) Do I have skills to
support my interest?
3) Can I maintain the
same interest when faced with tough challenges?
Students need to
consult their parents and teachers to know about the various streams of
intermediate. Due to the lack of knowledge many students tend to take wrong
decisions and suffer in their career path. If student can find answers for
above three questions, they can take right decision which is helpful for their
future career path.
Parents need to know
the interest of their children and support them with necessary information
regarding the streams and career options. Parents must ensure student get the
clear picture of the career path. Parents should not force their interest on
their children while choosing the stream. Parents should encourage their
children to follow their own career path.
Students take decision
with ambiguous mind and it is seen that many students take decision based on
others opinions instead of following their own interest. Students then quit the
stream mid way or feel disappointed and frustrated over their wrong decisions. This
leads the student’s career to wrong direction and ruins the career of the
student. Students should not take the decision based on others opinions or by
pressure.
Students should note
that there are no bad streams. All the streams have good future and plenty of
career opportunities. A successful career is in the hands of student only.
Student need to put sufficient efforts to make their career successful. Choose
the stream on your interest and get a breakthrough in career.
