Once the 10th results are out, students find it baffling to choose the right career path for themselves. And why not, it is quite foolish to rely on a 10th-class student to choose his/her career option. Students are often influenced by their peers, society and parents while they are taking a crucial decision of choosing the right profession for themselves. Under their guidance, most students fail to recognise their true potential and later on regret it.
According to CBSE, nearly 32 lakhs students appeared for the 10th board exams this year. When asked about their career preferences, most students were clueless or become swayed by their peer circle. So now the question is how can we help students realise their true career preferences without letting them get affected by others or society?
Well, how about an expert career counsellor? An experienced counsellor not only guides students to realise their true potential by comprehending their skills, talent and interest but also makes them realise their true worth. Being unbiased, counsellors ensure students recognise their professional choice by themselves and not under someone’s influence.
What are the different career options for Architecture and Design?
Students who passed out of 10th will have to sit for a separate entrance exam in order to get admission in Architecture and design Diploma courses. Below we have provided different career options and consecutive entrance exams to be taken for them to excel in their respective career.
