07 April,2022 | By Brainwonders

Science, as we know, is a very vast stream. There are many options available after completing 12 in the science stream. The course that we choose decides our career and future. So choosing a course wisely is the prime necessity.

Now the science stream is segregated into two branches - PCB and PCM

Physics, Chemistry and Biology (PCB)

Here, the courses are more from the biological aspect like doctors, dentists, surgeons, etc. Physics, Chemistry, and Biology are the three fundamental sciences. There are a few more items on the list. For further details, see our post Science courses after 12th PCB.

Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics (PCM).

Here, the core subjects are Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. Generally, the myth is that students who take up PCM become engineers. But that's not true at all. This stream has profound opportunities for students. The list of career prospects has consistently gone up in the last decade. Technological advancements have made this industry very challenging and specialization-centric. Hence the education sector has also changed to this stream.

After 12th PCM, this page focuses on Science courses. After the 12th, it includes all of India's well-known and accessible courses. These are undergraduate programmes that provide students with a promising career path. Here, we need to understand that these courses are professional and skilled. Hence, a student should undergo a skill assessment to apply for the most appropriate and suitable course.

Importance of Career Counselling for science students

After completing 12th, science students face a dilemma of course selection. Generally, Parents and Teachers are only acquainted with traditional courses after the 12th PCM. They are entirely unaware of the modifications and changes. At this stage, students need clarity on available courses, structure and duration of the courses. The most crucial quotient here is the Entrance test required for admission. All these details are very clearly explained to the students.

Now, this is a very technical stream, and it requires specific abilities and skills to excel in this field. The students need to understand their strengths and weaknesses before finalizing the courses. To assist the students and help them along, BRAINWONDERS has carefully designed a coaching and guiding strategy.

The Brainwonders team believes that every student in particular, and it is significant to understand the child's capabilities. This can be done in two ways. Firstly, having a detailed discussion with the child to understand his choices and interests and conducting specific Psychometric tests to understand his abilities, strengths, and positives. Let's have a look at the various tests that are conducted in Brainwonders :

Aptitude Test: This test is done to understand skills like problem-solving, prioritization and numerical and mathematical knowledge.
Interest Test: Career planning is always done based on interests and choices. So an exciting test is conducted to understand the likes and dislikes.
Multiple Intelligence Test: A person's intelligence is an area centric test. A multiple intelligence test is a way to measure a person's strength in different areas of intelligence, including visual, mathematical, kinesthetic, language, verbal etc.
Personality Test: Every individual has some unique traits. A personality test is conducted to understand the characteristics of a person. This greatly helps in career assessment.
IQ Test: Intelligence Quotient is a scale to measure cognitive intelligence. A set of activities is given to the student to understand his mental age. These tests are conducted with immense precision for accurate results. Another critical test that is conducted at BRAINWONDERS is the DMIT.
DMIT: This is a biometric test conducted by scanning your fingerprints. Fingerprints are invariably connected to your brain. So working of the brain can be understood with the help of these imprints. This highlights your vital areas, which are then used as a tool to devise your career plan. The career counsellors then study these reports and present several career options which are appropriate for the student.

Brainwonders is a leading career counselling centre due to its innovative and accurate guiding techniques. Students who are still sceptical about undertaking a science course after 12 PCM can grab this opportunity and walk in for a career counselling session. You can change the face of your future today.
