the trailblazers work and we will be discussing this in detail later on also. So now we will start the discussion on our subject today. So this is just a snapshot of the career timelines. So our children have already crossed this primary secondary school level. Now we are here and this is where we are going to talk about what options do we have here. Okay, so this area is what we are going to talk about just a minute. So yeah. So this is the area we are going to talk about today. So we are at this stage, we are going to enter this stage and what all factors do we need to do. So what I have done is I have collected all the questions which typically 10th graders have or the parents would be having. So all the doubts or confusions or questions and queries we will be discussing one by one. If you have any queries related to that, you can always put that in the chat and we could take that during our discussion. So the first thing is the very basic question on whether we have to go for science or commerce or humanities. Now in our 10 plus two system we know that we have to select one of the streams now and basis that only we will be able to progress our career. So three options are given in plus two level. One is science, one is commerce and another is humanities. So how do we decide this? How do we take up whether it is, whether I should be good for science or commerce or humanities. Now unfortunately in our country what has happened is over a period of time we have a classification on this or let's say there's a hierarchy which is there, unsaid or unwritten hierarchy is there and which is not that great, but that is there today. So what is that hierarchy? We prefer to take up science followed by commerce, followed by humanities. But in our opinion and our experience and most of the parents would agree to this that it all depends on what aptitude and what predispositions a child have and anyone who wants to make career out of any of these streams they can do it any day. Now it is wrong to say that one stream would be easier vis-a-vis the other. Why? Because if any one of the streams would be easier then probably most of the people would have gone into that direction only. But it's not true as all of us know whether it is commerce or humanities or science. We have you know lots of challenges in our academic career, whichever way. So hence it is let's not select science over commerce over humanities just because one is more sought after or let's say more popular. I would suggest a small you know SOP or let's say small algorithm to do that. Typically if and we say that we recommend like this that if you are very clear that you are not interested in mathematical sciences whichever whatever subject is related to mathematics very clear that I would not go near it because I have not been able to do great or it's not my predisposition then that's a clear indication don't go for science. Even if let's say people suggest that science has more science careers are more rewarding or there are more in number or you know anything any other reason because unless you are friendly or at least neutral to subjects like mathematics we know and most of the parents would agree that carrying on with science becomes a burden. So if you're totally clear that mathematics is not an option for me physics is not an option for me I don't really like it then it's always better to avoid science even if you know there are lots of great colleges or streams or whatever. So that's clear but indication. Let us say that I like mathematics or I don't really hate it or I don't dislike it. I have a neutral attitude towards science in that situation typically my recommendation or our general recommendation has been that you go for science and if you're not very clear on let's say I would be taking commerce subjects or humanities subjects if you are totally neutral you don't know what to do whether to take commerce or find humanities and I am very neutral towards mathematics and sciences as well. So typical recommendation would be that go towards science stream why because you get two more years to explore yourself your predispositions one is that and the second is the root from science to humanities or commerce is still possible you can you can switch from science to humanities or commerce if you don't really get along with science in your plus two but vice versa is not true so if you are in commerce and you don't like commerce eventually and you will go for science you want to go for science then most of the pros in science stream would be closed unless you have taken mathematics in commerce and you want to build on that that stream so hence if you're totally neutral and you don't know you still are exploring then and on top of it you do not dislike mathematics you have reasonable let's say you know skills in mathematics then please take science so that you know you get more time to evaluate yourself and explore and then take accordingly so that's how we have been recommending on science versus commerce versus humanities okay now so now comes let's let's say if you know if I have taken science the typical question in everyone's mind would be whether I should be preparing for engineering stream or I should be targeting medicine stream or any other stream right so this is typical you know taking in typical question in everyone's mind so how could decide whether you know or I should be totally neutral I don't know which stream is good for me and hence how do I select subjects now if again there are you know instead of selecting a particular stream typically we have been recommending that you you know filter out those which you do not want let us say that you are not interested in biology so biology becomes you know trouble for you or let's say mugging up facts and figures becomes very very difficult for you and you still are interested in science then you have a clear indication that you have to take a non-biology based science stream and the most popular one in this case is engineering followed by all the pure sciences courses so that's very clear if you don't need bio or don't require by or let's say don't like bio then obviously your subject selection should be PCM again for those people who are taking up science PCM do not take biology in this case also if you are very clear that you want to do engineering very clear then taking biology in plus two doesn't make much of a sense why because not that biology as a subject is you know not worthy enough but it is too huge a subject to be you know taken care of together with other equally heavy subjects like PCM now many times people have this misconception that for courses like bio engineering or biotechnology you need biology as a prerequisite in your plus two that's wrong any technology be a degree offered by any institution in India doesn't mandate you to take biology so if you are going for an engineering course biology is not mandated for that matter even j e main which I'll be talking about a little like little while later chemistry is not a prerequisite in your plus two so you must have only mathematics and physics for sure you can drop chemistry if you wish but then in the exam you'll have to write the chemistry paper so it makes a lot of sense to prepare for chemistry during or take chemistry in 11th and 12th but it's not mandatory as as far as qualification is concerned so that's the thing so it's basically if you are a clear on engineering take PCM do not take biology do not think that okay if I could not do engineering I'll end up doing medicine it doesn't work like that these are two different streams all together so it's better to be sure it's better to be sure and it always helps if you're sure because in our historical data or for that matter general data also suggests that if you are very clear on the subject choices then it helps augmenting your rank and final performance in the comparative exams so you know if you are going for engineering and clear that note you don't want to take biology then you don't have much of an option let us say that you're neutral you don't know any like all the subjects equally till 10th then what to do I'm not sure whether I'll be taking engineering or medicine though typically it is not a very good state to be in but I can understand there you know there is no formal counseling or formal let's say introduction to different courses post plus two in our country so it is quite natural for a student to go for all the sports projects PCMV so let's say you are taking PCMV which is offered by Raja Jinnaker as well in case as well now here we recommend that choose your stream as quick and fast as possible why because then what you can do is you can focus on let's say if you choose engineering then focus on PCM and take be lightly in the sense go on the only till ncrt level focus only till boards level that is one one uh strategy if let's say you are you finalized p sorry p c and b that is for medicine let's say if you finalize p c and b then what you can do is take mathematics till ncrt level you don't need to do extra effort here you just focus on p c and b now there is a good fact about you know taking mathematics especially for those who are neat aspirants now in need what happens need is an exam for medical entrance all of us know now in this exam the the ranked decider subject is physics this is general perception physics right why because biology people are able to you know cover the subject matter but physics is a little analytical so hence people typically uh find this subject to be tricky now the other reason is most of the people who are writing need by the way there were 1.8 million people this year who wrote me 18 lakhs that is so those who have taken uh those who have were waiting for need are typically those who do not take engineering stream or who are not very keen on taking mathematics so hence one of the most lucrative option for people who have left mathematics but still want to continue in science becomes neat okay so hence majority of the population who are writing need exam are people who are driven away from mathematics so hence if you have taken mathematics and you are preparing for need then obviously that particular subject will give you an edge why because physics is mostly mathematical in nature in philosophy so if you are mathematical in approach you are going to get a lot of advantage in physics and hence a lot of advantage in your final need rank so hence if you can maintain pc and v if you're planning for need take pcb to need level take mathematics to cb ac level that is going to give you a lot of uh edge so that's for medicine others there are we will show you a slide where what all you can do you can actually end up doing commerce also if you are not very keen on continuing with science so you can take up commerce you can do law you can do you know design you can do uh nda the armed forces and one of your uh you know one of the students of an npis raja negar uh did you know uh qualify for nda also this year from our our group so there are multiple other options which you can explore i will be taking you through that next so um now a very vital question which i have been interacting with our students in school also that uh what type of board should is you know good for the next two years right uh there are what what all boards exist by the way so we have a cb ac which you are continuing right now and uh in plus two also the most popular board in our country uh followed by isc which is by icsc board followed by pre-university which is the state karnataka board and there is another one called nis national institute of open schooling this is catching up very fast because of post-covid reasons you know people are opting for open schooling as well now which board should i be in is a very vital question now there are typical myths around choice of boards and you know uh let's say you know how unique a particular board is how easily it is manageable and all of that so we say that uh cb ac board is the most sought after why because even the nta or j e or any neat exam uh you know the the people who are conducting these exams they have very categorically mentioned that the board or the competitive exam syllabus will be aligned to cb ac syllabus so if you're cb ac student it it makes a lot of sense but just because you are you know isc student it doesn't make your candidate a little lighter in fact isc is a little more intensive so you need to level up more in case of isc why because the subjects are a little intense if you'd have seen in in in 10th grade itself uh the if you compare the syllabus of cb ac versus ic ac ic ac are much above for uh at least in science subjects i can tell you so hence but then the problem is uh if i am focusing on cooperative tracks so i don't need to overkill it so hence white and especially when i am coming from a cb ac so going from cb ac to ic ac doesn't make much of a sense so i would avoid i would recommend avoiding that there's another very popular thing wherein people go migrate from cb ac to pu thinking that pu is relatively easier and they get more time and you know they they get more time to focus on their own comparative exam preparation there is no denying that pu because we are also operating couple of uh you know pu's in banglows city where we are working with our partners to help them in their pu operations we know that yes pu typically compared to cb ac will have a lighter uh what do you say the approach towards exams but syllabus wise they are not different and uh just because they are not offering very you know in-depth uh learning so i should be taking that thinking that i will be getting more time for comparative exam preparation true to an extent but it's not good for everyone so we have seen that people go there take pu one one thing first is what you will face is there is something called transition will happen so you have to face the cultural shock or new totally new place totally new people totally new system that's one second you have to take an additional subject there are six subjects in pu compared to five subjects in cb ac you have to take an additional language canada sanskrit in the you have to do two languages so that's an additional thing so hence the time which you are thinking that i'll be saving may get you know invested in covering the pu subject the extra subject that's one second the peer group the peer group which is there in your let's say nps setup and a peer group which will be there in your in your pu setup setup is different so the the ecosystem which is driving towards let's say uh uh going abroad or talking about sciences and high-end stuff nasa and you know the peer group typically which is there which is which is also responsible for personality development is certainly um you know better in one case and it's totally different in other case i'm not saying that all the pu will be similar but what we have seen in nps the kind of ecosystem which is thriving is really uh you know something which is unique it's not there that you know and and i'm saying this why because i have been working with many other teams as well so that's one point you have to take care of so this is something you know uh generally there's one other point which i'll be coming to uh you know uh there's something called integrated versus non-integrated debate we will be talking about that so that one factor which which is there i will illustrate or i will i will emphasize on that as well now nios is one new thing which has come up so it is you know you don't need to go to school in this i don't know if you are aware you have to just do the coursework go to the labs for a few sessions and then write the exam and that's done so hence i have been very vocal about this that people who think that pu is going to get you more time for your preparation of je in need you know i don't take up nios so nios is still you know it is totally your time then you get the same degree you get the same qualification so why are you you know going for something which is um or i'm saying there is an option which is already available so you get 24 hours time with you and that brings on to our you know um discussion a little later i'll come to that about the time factor but let's first discuss competitive exam should i be writing it does everyone need to write a competitive exam in plus two so i don't know if parents are aware that this year a new exam has been introduced in our you know the gamut of for the you know the class of other let's say cluster of examinations are already there and that's called uet so henceforth all the university admissions central university admissions will be through an exam called uet only now uet has three components language second is aptitude that is mathematical in nature reason analytics and you know uh data analytics and reasoning mathematical reasoning and all of that and third is the subject in which you want to do your honors for example if you want to do psychology then you have to be writing an exam on psychology if you want to do english then you have to write an exam in english like that so three components mental ability language and the domain subject in which you want to do this is vital why because this has rendered the board exams importance on our lower side why because now board exam scores are relevant where you must ask this question so if i am taking up a board exam and i am getting 99 percent marks where do i think i will be able to use this mask definitely in terms of consistency and performance wise getting higher scores in board exam is always advisable but what is the exact or you know immediate relevance of it is not very clear in fact now it is dwindling why because anyways for engineering you have to write all these j e main advanced k c t commentary and all of that for medicine you'll have to write need for any central university placement you need to write your c u t and now lots of private universities are joining the bandwagon to you know um take c u t scores over c b s c board scores for their entrance admissions so even christ university you never know tomorrow apart from their entrance test and most of the universities have their entrance test already so what i'm literally seeing saying here is you cannot do away with competitive exam so if you want to pursue reasonable uh in academic career paths in the next four five years then you in india will have to write one exam for the other so you cannot escape it now the the question comes oh okay i'm i'm i'm going for right uh you know i'm going to take uh no exams and what do i do i should i you know go for a coaching should i do it in school or something called integrated program how does it pan out now we have been we very very vocal about you know integrated and non-integrated so for those parents who are not aware what integrated program is indeed integrated program is a new concept in bandwagon relatively new um wherein what happens is you join a college or a school and during the daytime itself the requirement of any competitive exam with whether it is je or neat is covered so that in the evening time you are totally free for your own work or whichever way you want to invest in that's the new concept it is there and it varies in application so one is very intense program wherein morning six o'clock will be you know woken up and you will be put into the race till evening till eight nine whatever they will be behind you complete this complete that and that's one intensive you know i see you of competitive exam preparation so a lot of people do that whether you know if that fits their personality types that is second type is you know you you join a you know second tier not that intense school or college which are partnering with some other external coaching agency and they come to your school and make you prepare for that during the daytime or half the time you'll be there in the school and half the time they will be shifting you to some other center and all of that is happening that's another model and third is the after-school program which we run in our RMS Rajanagar we have been doing since last eight years six years now sorry wherein you take the school in the morning and in the evening you you take the after-school program and then go back and work again now many times parents ask this question that okay is it not intense is it not too demanding is it not better to get into a integrated program and you know work there now there is no right or wrong answer to all these questions as we keep on saying that you can't really marry everyone just because someone is a girl you can marry similarly just because this is the most most popular uh integrated sorry course and hence i should be going there is not the answer so please understand this that it's a fitment between the course and the personality type many parents also ask me this question in person that how are you different from any other coaching institution and we say that you know there is difference is not needed here what is needed is the marriage the compatibility that is for my type of delivery what kind of students should be there or for that matter if i am this kind of a student then what kind of a institute i should be thinking of where my requirements are fulfilling so let's say there are category of people who are very excellent in their approach or let's say they have been doing it since let's say sixth grade seventh grade and they are on the verge of now you know completing the competitive track course and all of that they are now in demand of more time to improve their final performance then it always makes sense to give them more time but someone who is totally confused has not started and still you know need some help some hand holding to and he always needs some push to do some work then for such kind of people those types of courses are required where it will be taken care of or if someone will be you know there to talk to or available to discuss and things like that and you are not left in lurch and you know for those are those are factors and and and for those who need a push to utilize time availability of more time actually makes no sense because then you need more push to use those that available time so hence we keep on saying that choice of a program depends on what personality type i am so let's say i work even if i generally give this example to our students also that when there is huge gap between two exams let's say there are five seven days between the next exam people generally tend to start preparing only when the last day or second last day of the you know exam is there why don't they utilize the entire three four days because this is a general human tendency and i am of the same type that only when there is a pressure on me i will be able to perform well so there is another personality type so if you are falling in this personality type then what will happen if i give you immense amount of time also so that is not going to help in fact you will be wasting more time over there thinking that i have too much of time and hence becomes you know it backfires like anything so hence please be very very cautious in deciding this now there is another factor which is talked about especially in context of school like nps that it is too intense too much of work and all of that now trust me all of us are part of that regime only so we also graduated from schools where it was intense we had to write the lab records and you know do all sorts of participation in this event that event all are all are you know part of the game but that doesn't mean you don't have enough time and i you know literally tell this to all the students and if you really calculate your next two years microscopically you will see that you have a lot of time to do preparation how let me even let me illustrate to you so let's say you start your 11th grade in April but the school starts only in June so you have good 60 days here free from April to June because board exams will get over by 15th of March mostly by end of March and then you have good 60 days there okay now after that you have 10 days of Dushara holidays you have 10 days of winter break you have another you know lots of government holidays you have 40 plus Sundays 40 plus Saturday so you count all of that so let's say we have another 40 such Sundays in the first year there are 52 Sundays in the second year okay and there are good two months of two months of summer break also or 45 days of summer break so like let's add 45 more days over there right then again Saturdays again government holidays and all of that you put together you will see that there are no more than 300 days with you without any school intervention so hence if you have those many days already the current setup then why are we thinking that there will you know you need more time for that trust me if someone is able to do this or someone is not able to utilize even these 300 days typically the we generally say that then there is a problem you must not target these exams because this is good enough for preparation of any any exam which is happening and I'm telling this with a lot of you know responsibility because we do it and all our results the first ranker which you saw today in our slide 969 rank is a post you know nps fraternity child web of manager who was nps rather than a student all of these people have done really well within the school premises with all that what the school had to offer so hence it's not that it's not possible it's that I don't want to take that because I'm not committing myself to that hardship is what is the message and we generally keep on saying that if you're not committing to that those you know levels of hardships then you must go and inquire what these programs are there are doing where since morning till evening people are being chased and hounded to do something so it's same as you know so there's a this is a tradeoff so I I want the best of the two worlds or I want to get involved into a mechanism where I had I need to be pushed and shoved and to make you know myself do something then we are defeating the purpose because once you cross the line anyways there is no one to you know push and shove like that so hence in my opinion if the and we have seen this with data that child is motivated and wants to do that wants to ace any exam the format whether it is after school or it's an integrated or any other format really doesn't matter trust me there is more than 70 years of history there's 70 years of data which clearly is indicating that there is no correlation between the success rate and the platform yes for those who are in the top 10 top 50 it might impact a little bit more but it's not because they chose a integrated or a different format in plus two that because they have been doing it since last four or five years so there is no such correlation that choice of the format now at this stage is going to impact my result in future positively no correlation it might it might not why because it is a very important factor that what the child does with the resources which is offered to him or her so hence don't have any doubts in this in you know after this session that you need to be in one type of format to succeed no many times in backfires big time you go there and your expectations are not met neither now you are taking advantage of the existing ecosystem nor of that ecosystem so there is a risk involved now so after that is coaching necessary now this is a very vital question I typically we keep on saying no you don't need any coaching why do you need any coaching you need resources you need direction you need you know your commitment that's that's there already so why do you need any coaching now you need a coaching today because children of the era are having so much on their plate you need someone to guide you at every 24-7 or you know this thing you need people to chase you to tell you hey you are not supposed to do instagram you're not supposed to do this you are you're supposed to sit here and work and things like that so that particular thing the regime comes by enforcement now when we were and most of the parents when they were there there was no coaching as such they were just simple tuition classes here and there we were you know the product of those tuition classes only so we know that you know if you are driven you have objective in your mind there is enough people or enough free available resources there is something called IIT PAL if you go and search it's all J need to preparation is free we have contributed our own videos to national digital library of India so content is totally free even question papers and the latest question papers the people who are conducting the exam and NTA these people are themselves producing a lot of sample papers then why do you need any coaching the answer is that I need someone to keep on guiding me keep on pushing me keep the research always on and feed those information out of all that research into my preparation so to that extent yes but it's not necessary that you need hello yeah someone is saying something yeah so I hope this is this is clear to everyone okay now if yes then which one again I told you this has to be checked with compatibility all of them are doing excellent work it's not that you know someone is bad someone is better okay so it's all you know depend on what type of personality I am so if I am a person who needs more of attention go to a go to a group which is smaller if I am a person who has been preparing for three four years I need a more competitive environment and all that then you go to places where it is done so typically you know that for engineering it is quota Hyderabad or you know neat is again same same places so you know so there is where the more intensity is there but if I am okay with okay my hometown and you know little bit of direction and I'm okay with you know I have not started my preparation and I still want to you know get into all of this then your city is offering good options you know in fact any of them you take and you decide the basis where you can talk to the faculty members more where your peer groups can be entertained more what you know how frequently you want to interact with them and things like that because more or less everyone offers the same same thing okay now let's move on to this combination matrix and this will help you to design these you know the options which are there so I know you will be given options I think PCMC is one option which is being offered in and PCMB PCMC is offered in Radha Jinagar so what happens if you take these options so you can clearly see if you are in PCM side if you have taken maths maths maths maths maths so you will be eligible for engineering and architecture if you drop maths you will not be eligible for engineering or architecture right if you have you know if you have not taken biology then you will not be right eligible to write medicine so you can see biology is important so biology is there you'll be able to do medicine for for medicine you don't need mathematics C so there is no criteria of mathematics for medicine so you can leave mathematics if you want to write medicine and take PCB only now these are commerce subject so you can see lots of process in this part that means if you are in this zone you can't move on to pure sciences medicine or engineering architecture but if you are if you see this any vertical people can go into commerce anyone can go into design anyone can go into law anyone can go into management like that right anyone can go into civil services later on so in science become important for engineering medicine pure science if you and if and and if you take commerce then you are those roads are blocked but if you have taken commerce all sorry science all roads are open okay now what all options in science engineering medicine and pure sciences or others these are the four options for science people let's talk about this and now so another another matrix on how to take how to choose the you know whether i should be choosing ip ip is information information practices i don't think rather than your opposite but for your information you should know this computer science economics and biology right so how do i choose so first of all go for ease of handling so if you are targeting engineering sciences then this is the ranking that is ip would be the least you know engaging or it will be most easy followed by computer science followed by economics followed by biology if you are going for engineering sciences because biology has you know a lot of content to cover and so hence you will have to spend a lot of time so ease of handling goes in this direction relevance to undergraduate studies obviously computer science you can't do with it so computer science is the most relevant for your engineering sciences apart out of all of this biology doesn't you know you know you don't require biology for any engineering course unless you are going for biotechnology or bioengineering and things like that but anyways in the course in the college they will be covering the prerequisites of biology then so you don't need to worry about that economics is an elective service subject for undergrad studies in engineering so you can think of it but again the relevance wise this is first followed by this information practices and computer science are mostly overlapping syllabus barring a few other you know few topics but mostly computer science and information practices you will see there is a lot of overlap but relevance wise since you are doing mathematics so hence subject should be mathematical so computer science is a very mathematical course so you should be taking cs first problem solving again computer science first rank followed by ip followed by economics and biology so hence computer science gives you that platform where you will be brushing up on to how to solve problems and that is what is required for any j or any other engineering entrance so hence if you take computer science it is going to aid you and if you add all the scores you will see computer science comes you know at least so these are the best ranks so you should be picking up computer science in our recommendation followed by ip followed by economics followed by biology if you are going for engineering that is okay or pure sciences okay so this is about this matrix now what if you are taking medicine then how to go for it again if these are the typical choices psychology information practices and math so you will get pc mv you will get pc v with psychology you will get pc v with ip so physics chemistry biology is there but out of these three how to choose so you see ease of handling again so math will be intensive because as i told you lots of children drive away from mathematics and hence take the non-mathematics part of science so but and then psychology is one subject which is really relevant as well as so as i mentioned relevance as well as ease of handling so as compared to the other subject so hence if you are taking medicine you don't want mathematics then you can take psychology there is no more not many options also but if you happen to take mathematics in my opinion the it is going to aid you when you're so i have to add one more you know pause here at relevance to the competitive exam meet so let's say if you're writing medicine if you take up mathematics it's going to help you so and you trust me you'll be able to manage if you are managing mathematics still in crt level and not trying to excel till the competitive j advanced level in mathematics it's still manageable enough now next so let me give you an overview of engineering now and i would advise all the parents to visit this site n i r f and i r f national institutional ranking framework it is a ministry of education thing government of india and they come up with rankings of all these streams every year so you can see you know you'll get get to see which all the colleges are there so i have mentioned some of the colleges in in karnataka n i d surup if you see this is the top in karnataka so but there are all all these all this information is available on this website you please have a look on these now these are top colleges i it is gold without saying engineering top colleges in india national institute of technology indian institute of information technology is very very important isers are catching up indian institute of science education and research bits pilani bits meshra velour institute of technology manipal thapar psg college srm bms rbc bangalore pesant bangalore all of them are all of them are top colleges so there are lots of in fact it is itself are 23 today so there are lots of it is a lot of isers so all of which all exams should i be following or should be pursuing it j e advanced j e main this is conducted by it is themselves one of the it is conducted this exam one of the toughest exam all of us know on in this country j e main is another engineering entrance you will go to n it's and triple it's through this bit set is for bits pilani vt is for the lower institute of this is for manipal and the most popular k c p t k c it is all governmentated government and governmentated colleges and comment k is all private colleges in karnataka so if you are a student of karnataka studying here then k c t is going to help because you will get you know advantage in terms of availing the government seats as well as in terms of fees comment k are the concentration of all medical and dental and engineering colleges in in karnataka so that is a separate exam k c e t main so one one area where the board exam is very very relevant is k c t because in k c t you have 50% of weightage of your board exam right so 50% board exam 50% k c t ramp so hence you cannot take board exams anyways lightly comment k doesn't take board weightage so just a point to add here like in in c t although there is a 50% weightage of the board exam but then the spectrum of marks the students get in the board exam is nobody gets less than maybe 85% or 90% marks and the highest marks will be around 98 so even though the weightage is 50% marks for the board exam in c e t then also the 50% of 98 will translate to 49 and of 90 will translate to 45 so there is hardly any difference in terms of the board weightage whichever is there in c e t so because of that although apparently it looks like you know 50% importance should be given to the board exam but having said that it is very easy to score 90% and above in the board exam so everybody tend to score similar marks when it comes to weightage of the board exam in class 12 for c e t yeah so very true but the rest is trying to mention is that you know the weightage will be higher on the k c e t side why because most of the toppers will be anyway scoring high scores in their pu or in their cvc exams so hence if you are better in k c e t part of it your chances are always good now some inputs are or some insights around this exam are these so there are around 11 lakh people who are writing every year you know this engineering entrances subject to be focused on physics, chemistry and mathematics all the entrances will have pcm there are mcqs with negative marking up to 50% negative marking up to 50% in jeev advance is there so you have to be really ready for it but it's very very high competition because you know on the same marks there are lots of people you know and then rankings is even decided by their age so i don't know if you're aware there are more than you know uh tens of people getting 100 on 100 or cent in let's say pcm in in in jay main last year from our group itself there were four people who got 100 out of 100 in various subjects so what i'm just trying to hint upon is the competition is getting gaining pace and you know on one single digit score there are lots of students so hence we need to work on that part as well you will be getting two attempts that is the good part of so the good part about engineering because i mean medicine is this that you get a lot of opportunities whether it is jay main which is two so best of the two scores will be taken or whether it is jay advance for iit or it is sat or met or vt or whatever exams are there kct is there so you have multiple options so one day is bad doesn't matter other options are there but you need again the problem is uh if i lose one one exam i end up wasting one full year i might drop out of need race altogether also so that's the thing and yes only those who qualify jay main will be eligible to write jay advance so jay main in advance comes in a group you know you know do so hence i have to focus on both of them together now uh if you take pure sciences that there are very few colleges in in in India which are offering one of the best pure sciences courses few of them are iac bangalore definitely the mecca of all the science courses in india not only in india but abroad it's acclaimed so iit's offer a lot of uh msc courses so they do not offer any bsc course or you know they offer either four-year bsc course or five-year integrated msc courses so there is no three-year program in iit's indian institute of science also offers four-year bsc course so there is no three-year course in undergrad in any of these institutions same for n it's there are very important or very new uh institutions called isers very very famous institutions indian institute of science education and research um these are again you know very premium institutions of government of india and uh taken by taken permissions are through jay advance and their own aptitude test will talk about which pilani offers science courses deli university chennai mathematical institute this is another very very these two names cmi and isi indian statistical institute very very important but very unpopular in the sense not popular not unpopular not popular people don't know about it uh exams are pretty difficult to that an extent we say that even mathematics is beyond jay advance level at times both these institutions but once you are part of these institutions your life is in different league altogether because very few people joining there is 100 scholarship also for students and you get go there and uh you know be with the top minds of the country and you know really excel in those subjects so isi offers bachelor of mathematics bachelor of statistics very very relevant uh courses and uh since it is not v-tech or you know generally media doesn't cover all of this so people are not aware of it but trust me cmi institutions like cmi and isis need to be you know replicate them so there should be more such institutions j new bhu all these are central universities so you now know for central universities you have this exam called c u v t so central university entrance test you have to write it whether you are good at both or not you have to write this exam to get into any of these central universities as well i at is iser aptitude test so iser state either through j uh j advance or through their own test called i 18 earlier there was an example kvp by now from this year it has been abolished what is the being going to be replaced with is not very clear so far but this exam has been now taken away so there is no direct route of getting into isc uh the only routes now are advanced j advanced or neat so that's the uh route for um is bit set again is for your bits sciences now top quality in karnataka are these for pure sciences obviously isc stands out but you know um no so kct comet k is not valid for v it will have a separate entrance test so you have to write on there's a query related to whether kct will be valid for mit and v it so v it and mit money well they have a separate entrance test so some portion well or though doesn't take kct but some portion of these karnataka based colleges may uh give some way let's say you know seats for kct route but otherwise they have their own entrance test okay now pure sciences overview only around 120 seats are there in isc four-year bs program 50 percent is reserved out of it so you know your personal you know your your probability of getting through is you know everyone's for that matter even if the topper is not sure whether he'll be able to get through so it's so so nigger on a number of seats then uh ceo it this time around we saw a lot of people getting 100 percent is the the purpose for which it was created got defeated actually because more than the 100 percent scores the centum scores which these students used to get in cbac they are now getting 100 percent isc scores in ceo it so the problem with which this particular example was in which stars has not been solved per se but they are working on it and mostly yeah it will be there uh yeah astrophysics and astronomy so isas are one of them indian institute of astrophysics in banglory is another one so question is around which of these institutes offer courses to do with astrophysics and astronomy so isas and isc are the top colleges who who offer these but many a times you will see there will not be an undergrad program directly you have to do some pure science basics and then you can take up astrophysics or astronomy as your specialization same case happens in isas as well so very very rarely you would see and even if someone is offering the quality of offering until unless it is isc or isas will not be that great so typically we recommend that you do some basic undergrad physics or you know mathematics and things like that and then then we can do astrophysics and astronomy preferably i think in your masters okay so going forward so we have maths physics chemistry biology and others you have to be very very good at isc starting medical course yes it is so see right now frankly speaking we you know don't know to be they don't have any visibility on how exactly they are going to be but i would rather suggest if you really want to do need don't join isc because isc is the you know mandate is something different i would rather suggest that you know you go to need let's say regular medical college which has a legacy like games and all so that will be a better thing to do in our our you know recommendation yeah will c s have to be one of the option in the basic undergrad course no not necessary so you don't need to take computer science in your plus two to get into any of the computer science courses later on not necessary mathematics is a must so yes they have they have but again you know see isc please understand any institute is not for example even iit kharagpur has the medical science stream iit kharagpur has a lost intellectual property school also so we keep on recommending that just because a very famous institution has got into a new new you know department that doesn't mean it will be you know top notch from day one definitely there is a heavy weightage of the legacy but i would recommend go for that particular stream which is best in the country so right now isc is not known for medical science medical science is jip mar pondicherry kamesi kims your aims telly your you know sent john's college and things like that yeah okay so the other question is are we really a combination of math and physics suffice yes so maths and physics is very important if you really want to go take astronomy or astrophysics because anyways uh uh you know the subject itself is all about maths and physics so hence the criteria must be there in the plus two level as well as throughout your academy journey in astrophysics okay so that's i hope uh we take in maths and computing yes certainly it is good but then again isc is not known for undergrad engineering courses so if i have have a choice i would go to be taking maths and computing in delhi iit delhi one of the most established and you know well what do you say well placed departments it it is also offered in id color pool so these departments are known for these subjects iac is experimenting with these new new uh you know subjects so that definitely will be good i'm not doubting about it but if i have to make a choice i would definitely prefer iit delhi five year integrated we take we take a dual degree in let's say maths and computing over iac maths and computing is what i'm just trying to uh okay now so uh next is yeah so again very very high competition here and there's you know high level of uh uh competition in terms of 100 percent isles if you just you know turn around the newspapers you'll see uh 10 000s of you know psychology 100 percent isles and these many thousands of economics 100 percent isles and things like that whatever in the news so again the purpose of this u it is still not very you know so now coming to medical science team again you can refer to nirf site for all the information around ranking okay so all india's institute of medical science you know way on top you know for many people say that oh i'm not go to delhi even if i clear a clear need with flying colors no so you you must you know so this is a lifetime opportunity and you know part of being a part of such you know premier institutions is is is is really great so think about it post graduate institute of medical education research indigad pgim are very very famous cmc valore one of the famous institutions our zippmer and you know sin johnson in sin john's college in in banglore all these colleges are very very great colleges the the the dangerous part about medicine is neat exam when i say dangerous is you have only one exam for medicine and that too if you miss on one day and then you'll go again come back next year to write it the full score is 720 and this year one of our students got 675 and he bagged an anchor 103 right so in fact uh just to share our news with all of you this year air 3 uh in neat rishikes was our student in foundation in eastern part of banglore we that point in time we were not running need programs and hence you know so this this guy is you know he bagged 715 out of 720 the top score now the the catch here is all the four air one one two three four got 750 all the four people same score but one is awarded air one another two three and four basis their ranks in physics and age something like that happens so let's say if you are older you get better rank so this every every time they put a clause on what happens or what are the clauses for tiebreakers so first is biology you need to then followed by physics then followed by chemistry then followed by age is what they do so that's another in fact you must know so top college in karnataka nimhan's banglore unfortunately they don't have any undergrad course but top most in in banglore kasturba medical college or sorry karnataka so these are all karnataka colleges then john's kasturba medical college jss ms ramaya ks agide javala niru medical college bm partner so all of this data is available and i rf every year it keeps on changing so please have a look there now overview there are 18 lakh people 18 lakh people right okay and there are around uh around nearly one lakh seat are there one lap all put together so every year india produces around one lakh doctors including mbs dental aiyush aiyush is ayurveda unani homeopathy and all of that so these are all put together aiyush okay so physics chemistry botany zoology these four papers will be there in your exam 180 each so far the pattern is 180 into four all subjects there are 45 questions in each subject so one uh you know so you have to uh take 45 questions physics 45 in chemistry 45 in botany 45 in zoology or 19 biology so to say and there is one more important fact that there is 15 percent all india quota and 85 percent state quota so for example let's say there are in san john's medical colleges my college there are 100 seats let's say so 85 only you will be claiming if you are claiming the state quota 15 is reserved for people who are claiming all india quota right so if you are domicile so you will get some pie some bit in here in this 85 and the rest of the 15 is left for the different states so same goes let's say if you are claiming a seat in some other state so you'll get put off that 15 percent of that college 85 is for that state college that state from which the college is there are around these many mdbs seats these many bds seats so now you can do the calculations every one in five only we'll be able to become a doctor out of these 18 lakh people who will be writing it and karnataka has highest mdbs seats 9345 so our students stand a great chance to get into need colleges or medicine colleges in in karnataka now so other professional courses are there so let's say all of these doesn't you know work well with you so you don't want to engineering you don't want medicine you don't want pure sciences then you can explore law the exam which you have to write is flat wherein aptitude wherein law legal aptitude wherein general knowledge wherein language wherein all these all these components are tested general knowledge legal aptitude mental ability all these are part of glad so you don't need to have any prerequisite qualifications or any subject person whether he has taken math or biology or whatever can write these exams business management again typically done postgraduate at postgraduate level but there is a very good program offered by iron indoor so if you want to explore that explore is a five-year course you know straight MBA from imi just after 12 so that is one hotel management again if you are willing to get into hospitality industry very relevant for today's era liberal studies there are lots of new universities which are coming up ashoka university azim premji university flame there are many many such universities who are offering liberal studies so that can be explored mass communication journalism is another area which you can think of economics this is one of the you know most sought after these days so in lots of people are heading towards economics field and whether you want to tomorrow become an ies officer that is for the indian economic service economic service officers or or you want to get into a pure economics role also so deli college of economics deli school of economics all these are very sought after places in economics process you can do an undergrad economics from many of the universities and try a broad going and moving abroad in the masters and that will be a good career path as well so many of the students who are taking economics these days even iides are offering economic courses may people land up in imf and world banks and things you know you and agencies and things like that another you know very specific area social work only when you are very clear you want to do it then you should be picking up social work armed forces nda you can go into air force army or navy you know write an exam called india at this stage so the three year course will be there in punay kharaka wasp national defense academy post that you'll have to get into or depending upon your performance and choices you will be ending up into military that is army or navy or air force or post guard so these are the agencies which will be you will be joining design very very relevant again lots of courses are now being introduced in it system itself in design fine arts visual arts you must have heard of nifp national institute of fashion technology it is there in bangalore and in hsr layout itself it is so it is very famous institute if you want to get into let's say fashion technology and you know so and for design another very important institute is nid national institute of design in mdabad it has a it has an extension here in bangalore as well and the exam which we are talking about here is ucd this is another exam again if you're very clear that you want to get into design stream only then ucd is one j advance is another so j advance is is another exam sorry in this case only ucd so you will be entering into all of these colleges with ucd exam only so there will be a design aptitude test which is different from the you know the typical entrances so you'll have to come up with your own innovative ideas of how the design would be for you know one particular given use case that is how they test you apart from mathematics and mental ability so mathematics is always helpful and you know the design aptitude so only the only when you have that you know inclination towards designing then you should be targeting ucd exam as well so this is about people taking up all these uh uh exams so if you are a science student you know about 9th and 10th we are mostly now focusing on 11th and 12th exam so you are going to take up these exams so cuet j main j advanced kct with sad neat and not not i did not cover this is for architecture architecture so you can get into architecture through nata or through j advance and mains as well so you want to get into architecture in the 90s you have to write j main there is a separate paper apart from the main paper so if you are opting for architecture then you have to take bus paper number two both in j main if you want to take up architecture in j advance then you have to write paper two in j advance as well so architecture is through j advanced as well as through nata so you can take so i don't know if you've heard of something called spa school of planning and architecture new deli very famous institution again in new deli or architecture so you can explore that what are the class 10 exam relevance and opportunities i will come to that class 10 exams relevance so i just to answer it in a short this thing is that class 10 exams typically if you ask me is only our academic exercise now because even the schools will not be so if you are going to continue in your same school the 10th board exams per se are not important or i should not be saying not important it will not be counted because all your performance will be counted till the mocks will be writing so that's one second point is if you want to go to any other school or college again you have to write an entrance there so because all the admissions get closed before the you know publishing of board exams so hence it has become more of an academic exercise today yeah tomorrow if you want to write an exam called cat and there are still people in the interviews they have you know the tendency of seeing whether the whether the person has performed consistently in his academic records so again so doing well there becomes most relevant now anyways any exam we should be writing we should always be thinking of excelling it so hence even if it is not that relevant so we typically recommend to all the children that take it seriously score well you know anyways you know you never know tomorrow later on if something is tweaked and then all of a sudden they start saying that we will be taking weightage of your 10th board and 12th board and all of that which happened in our generation when we were writing cat all of a sudden it was changed the the mechanism was changed and it was said that your your undergrad level sorry 10th level stuff will be important so 10th 12th score became important so we were not aware and we we had the disadvantage of not getting through also so that's where things might you know in our country it might change so please take either of the board exams very very seriously okay so now these are these are some stats which you must know these are the conversion rates if you see we have 0.6 conversion in J advance that means every 1000 people who will be writing this only around six people will make it to IITs okay and that too only around two will go into top IITs top IITs that are seven one the seven IITs which have legacy of more than 20 plus years Kharagpur, Kanpur, Bombay, Delhi, Madras, Roorkee, Guwahati so these seven you know if you are in top 5000 rank you can think of getting a decent reasonable stream in these top five IITs typically J advance results you know the counseling goes up to 40 K but it's just another exercise you know doesn't mean much actually so if you are not within top 10 K you will not get you know a reasonable course in one of the top seven IITs so you'll have to compromise or let's adjust with some new upcoming IITs which do not have those legacy and facilities as the existing ones so but then it will take some time and they will also catch up but yes when you're writing an exam you always target the best one so hence if you really want to get into the top IITs we suggest that it's top 5000 rank to get into those now J name though we say that out of 11 lakh around 2.25 lakh will be qualified but to as a matter of fact only 40,000 seats are there in government funded technical institutions, GFTIs, GFTIs are all the NITs, all the ISAs, Stipalitis and all any other you know government college engineering colleges so hence if you are not in top 40,000 then again it becomes you know not that great exercise or let's say a decision to continue in engineering course in some random college neat 5% conversion so you now know out of 18 lakh around 90,000 people will get through so 5% conversion thankfully this exam is gone but we don't know whether you know any new exam is going to replace this one the conversion is very very low why for the same reason for the sole reason that there are only 120 seats right now they have added some 20 more seats here it is new IIT ma'am so it is you know just IIT Darwad so question is how come we don't hear much about IIT Darwad is because until last year there was no building also so now it takes some time so government does declare about new institutions but it takes a lot of time to you know catch up with the real you know real level so it will take thankfully this you know now they have taken you know very aggressively and all the infrastructure work is kind of over what I've heard and you know these are being mentored by IIT Bombay as well so what I'm just trying to tell you new IITs will take its their own time to reach out reach to the level of what the existing IITs are so hence but definitely in the near future by five years down the line seven years down the line you will be able to see lots of things about IIT Darwad as well so with that again conversion rate is 1% so it's a very famous institution now there is bits at bits Goa, bits Hyderabad in fact Dubai also they have opened a lot of institutions you know campuses but the most sought after is the bits Pilani campus so one of the you know lots of sentiment academy students are today in bits Pilani campus as well so this is just to show you you know what is happening in the competitive exam world so keep that in mind so that you know because the numbers are like that so hence we have to be ready and hence hence this discussion that what to do and where do I stand and how do I prepare for the next two years and I would also like to throw some light on board exam results statistics so you can see there are more than 1.5 lakh people getting 90% score and if you see there are more than you know this is 2020 data pre-COVID data I have taken so around 40k in 2020 in grade 12 got more than 90% 95% mark and this is only CBC so if you add all of them all the boards put together there is good 2 plus lakh people who would be there who would have got more than 95% and unfortunately our country doesn't have those many you know quality seats in any stream put together so we need to take care of these facts as well now same goes for 10 grade if you see there are number of people who got more than 95% in 2019 was around 60,000 and more than 41,000 in 2020 so you know in 10th board also we have had the privilege of having the zone top course this year also one Rajinagar student grade 10 she is in our IED batch now previously also another girl from 2020 batch she cracked in 10th board she was the zone top now she cleared J advanced as well so you know what I'm just trying to tell you is getting 95% is not a big target these days so hence and especially in NPS ecosystem I have seen that you know eventually they will make sure that all of all the students will be averaging around 95 plus so that's that's for sure so we must be thinking about the things which are going to be in the next step and that's what we are discussing this today now what so let's say now we just final that we have to do one of the exam so how do we go about it what are ingredients and these are the three one three ingredients which always say first we will be very very sure that we want to do it unless that is there we really can't move forward so conviction is definitely we say 80 20 a rule 80% should be the conviction of the person who wants to lead the path rest everyone is a support system including parents so conviction is one rest two is our game wherein mentorship and strategy so mentorship today is not only about let's say a classroom lecture mentorship is also about talking about food regime talking about physical exercise regime talking about your social media regime and all of that so you know we have to take care of all these factors which are influencing your performance so that's that goes into mentorship and strategy obviously there are since the competition is growing so we can't really play blindly we have to have a strategy in terms of which subjects what to attack how to take care of my errors how to take care of my shortcomings and how do I manage my let's say study hours how do I manage my study hours and your school exams how to balance both of them in the exam strategy for example which subject to attack first which question to miss or which question not to attack at all all comes under strategy and over a period of time as the you know the coursework goes on we emphasize on all of this so three factors simply conviction you must be very very clear that I want to do it and if there is a conviction is great there will not be much of an issue in clearing any of these exams mentorship and strategy are available so that will be the course of action or this is what you need to do every one of us has to do it once in a while so now so next is how do we help so we again as we as we you know that we are running our own programs in Rajazinagar so two parts of it is taken care of what we do in in nps campus we do test preparation part and in test preparation whatever it takes from you know from the preparation part of it in terms of lectures or training or testing or you know improvement matrix and things like that and the most important part is psychological part so if I as I speak there are lots of R and R students sitting over here in our center so they travel all all all the way from Rajazinagar and on Saturday Sundays they make sure that their time is productive and we engage with them in a more closed manner to understand how the preparation is going on and how do we help more so this is beyond the let's say the the classroom lectures which happen so the mentorship approach the psychological angle is very very important for children who are coming from these ecosystems especially who are coming from nps and you know closed networks smaller groups network things like that now methodology remains the same we have been discussing this for a while I'll be just you know just we have discussed this in the past anyways but I will be more throwing more light on let's say you know the format in which we are doing so we will be doing again in the school campus only and the administration has been really really supportive and the great the I most humbly I will claim that in case Rajazinagar is the place where we have got the best results so far over the last four five years so be it the ecosystem prevailing over there be it the nature of you know the students and parents community over there so they have been vis-a-vis many other campuses which we have been visiting we see that the rigor element is certainly more higher and we have seen children to be more what do you say discipline in terms of the requirement of the game so hence it always helps to you know we have now spent some good five years in Rajazinagar and we are deeply entrenched with the ecosystem we know how things work over there we have great relationship with the management and you know so that aids well because you know we we can we since we are part of the ecosystem so it becomes easier for us to disseminate our programs over there so in 11th and 12th it will be a four days three days a week again but in an enhanced number of hours three and a half to four hours it will be many times we will be engaging them online also so we'll be utilizing the hybrid model and we will be doing again the three three days a week program and once in a while we are in a process of now establishing ourselves in that part of the city as well so by the time you know we will be doing 11th we will be there in physical mode as well in sense we will be having our own center somewhere there as well so that's there and these are some of the results which we you know which our children got so you know Vaibhav is from IIT sorry now he's joining IIT Madras he is from Rajazinagar so Ruchita happens to be Rajazinagar student Ruchit happens to be Rajazinagar student Kinshukh happens to be Rajazinagar students this is this year's Rajazinagar strength last year also if you really see before that these are the best ranks which we got in 969 in J advance 1083 in NEET and this is he got 28 in Komedke Komedke you know and then Pradyum got 130 in KCET this guy Aditya is now IIC he is joining IIC he got 232 in KBPY now which has been abolished Kinshukh cleared NDA and Anika and Prakrati both these girls are zone top in grade 10 so she both of them scored 497 out of 500 these are the highlights of this year's exam okay this guy also got 100 and I think 28-24 rank in Komedke okay now some previous this is our CET score so you see there are eight people in top 700 so all India ranks in KCET okay these are our rankings in J main the top rankers are these and if you see all these students are with NPS students and they have scored wonderfully well in these board exams as well okay so that's another very important statistic so it's very much possible this is last year you can see again Rajazinagar Rajazinagar so all these people are from Rajazinagar Rajazinagar so there are people from Rajazinagar every every time and you know some some of these students also went to you know foreign universities so again KCET rank also you know top 1000 many people were there so last year this is again last year's okay now this is last to last year again if you see Sukirti's from Rajazinagar so this guy was from NPS R&R very much in regular program Sushant was in Rajazinagar and if you see Bharat this guy all India ranked 90 this guy Bharat here here this guy is also from Rajazinagar today he is in Singapore and US so you know Sushant Rajazinagar first ranked in KCET that year with Ruchita Rajazinagar so all these people have really done well from Rajazinagar school so we have a good track record results especially from Rajazinagar school because again as I told you the ecosystem the management everyone is so you know gelled well that we really you know enjoy there in fact we are all situated in this part of the city where in Sajapur road and HSR it is very difficult to go through actually Rajazinagar but we love going because of the ecosystem which we have been getting over there now this this will be all from our side so now the forum is on and any parent or any student has any particular question please feel free to ask related to this because as I told you in the beginning it cannot be summarized all the options and there are humongous amount of information for every stream so it takes multiple sessions to actually you know take you through for even a single stream like engineering there are thousands of streams to you know talk about but let's say if you have any query related to you know the next steps and you are facing any difficulty in taking that decision feel free to reach out to us and we can engage every Tuesday Thursday we are there in Rajazinagar campus if any parent want to meet us in person to you know know more about anything or discuss about anything please feel free so we are part of the school community you know families so we would definitely be you know reaching out to all the parents and parents can also you know if you think that we can be of any help regarding making the career choices or taking any decision please let us know and we'll be more than happy to assist you any other queries welcome please let me know if there is something which we can help you with in terms of next two years or if you want to talk in person individually we are all all there yeah any question from any student so is it good to switch from cbc to pu board so that I get more time to prepare for iat now this is again as I told you you know this is not dependent on the format again so a typical question which which is asked is if I joined you I'll get more time I keep on claiming that you already have enough time right so I calculated in the very first part of the this thing that out of two years eventually you have one year because here you are one year of time for the preparation as holidays because October of 12th year the course in school also gets over so you get into the mode of going very rarely for practical exams and all of that and only revision classes here and there so hence you know everything is is possible within the school system so I don't think there will be enough of time for you know or you require so much of time for clearing IAD in I in if you really ask our opinion it's not required if you wish you can definitely try that out but there are certain limitations or you know something some some constraints are there what are the constraints the biggest problem is if you you know get into that ecosystem where you are struggling let's say you know because 11th and 12th is very difficult to cope up with at times also so if you're struggling there you must have a mechanism of someone to rescue you from there so that's very very important time wise I don't think there is much of an advantage because I am saying this why because I am also part of a you know program which is to you know to you program where our children are studying into you and because time wise I see many of many at times those are very serious are utilizing the time those who are distracted are actually wasting more time over there so neither of they are getting the best of this nor that of that so hence be very very careful while you're picking up any any such option especially with respect to time I don't see that there's much of an advantage so that's one apart from CBC boarding school why do you need to do that stay at home parents are so caring you know take advantage of their care and you know there's no better place than home to prepare tell trust me so hence try to utilize your time maximum don't travel much lesser the travel the better it is don't have more distractions in your life Instagram discords if you are still there now just relinquish all of them because we are seeing our 11th and 12th children are struggling because of these distractions and not because they don't have time they have enough time but they are wasting it in all such activities so don't do that you have enough time and also just to add to our programs if you are running we will be running a JEE advanced course and we will be running a neat focus neat course in our NPS rather than ever and you know we will be doing thrice a week as we told you PCM or PCB from 315 to 7pm is the class timings and three days a week it will be done every month there will be three tests which children would have to write one is JEE main if you're taking JEE main then you have to write JEE main KCET and JEE advanced level test and for neat people every four nights that is every 15 days you have to write your test and followed by we'll be first starting with a bridge program to bridge all the lacunae or gaps which are there because of the poor videos for the first 45 days followed by an intensive program till October of 12th grade we will be continuing with that and post that we'll be running something called a fast track program or crash course which covers the last two years of preparations 11th and 12th once again will be taken up from October mid till you write your JEE main or your NEET exam whichever way so that's our overview of the program structure which we'll be doing the question is what will be the option for PCMB student and how symptom takes care of these kind of students so we do offer PCMB as well but as we said if you are taking four days of classes out of six days available seven days available to you then you will get lesser time for your own self-preparation now in these exams self-study is the most effective way of you know learning any number of hours you spend in front of your youtube channel then lectures and review lectures or live lectures is not going to benefit until and unless you take 20 sums and work on it and fail and struggle there so hence you should be reducing your lecturing hours because lectures are supposed to be limited hours you can't really do you know 24-7 lecturing that's not possible the most important thing is focus on problem solving so hence you take either PCB or PCM and maintain the bare minimum level in the fourth subject in your in the school level so you have to decide faster which subject to take decide faster whether to take engineering or medicine take two months time three months time but close it once you're closing it take only three subjects as a coaching fourth subject you manage you know in the school level if there be a need of your our intervention you are always welcome to speak our help we'll help you but for a professional training you do only three subjects is our recommendation separate batch yes j e n c j k c e t will go hand in hand need will be different so j engineering stream needs team two different streams will be there so these are the questions which were asked i hope i um yeah so hence you will also get you know so it's let's say for example you join an engineering program you will also be having you know different different types of exams let's say bit set has a different pattern or k c t has a different pattern advance has a different pattern so all those children will be exposed to these different different pattern exams need unfortunately we have only one so we'll keep repeating that meeting again and again for the next two years in in total at least 100 plus uh you know mock test you will be writing uh you know for your exam so that is something which is very very important yeah and all other features you know for your let's say revision anyways provide you our recorded lectures for revision not for life classes apart from life classes you want to revise your stuff we have our comprehensive elements where all the previous video lectures are already there there is a you know detailed assignment route there is a detailed testing uh you know schedule so all those things are pretty much available Cambridge or ib syllabus help in going abroad okay so if you're going abroad then yes definitely ib syllabus the ecosystem definitely helps but the problem is transition so just through why if you talk to Rohit sir because Rohit sir also goes to TISB and lots of NPS kids have moved to TISB though you know and and the common you know issue which we have faced is they face a lot of challenge in coping up with their curriculum though the intensity is low in terms of you know the subject matter but there are lots of other things you have right extended essays internal assessments and whatnot so you will be busy throughout and you have to you know spend good amount of time you know uh first of all acclimatizing to those processes so please talk to Rohit sir in you know you know when he's there tomorrow or whenever next class he will be able to give you a better insight into what are the pros and cons of shifting from cvc to ig but otherwise lots of students from nps raja dinagar itself have gone abroad using nps raja dinagar credibility trust me nps is a known name in in international circles especially why because there have been results like that there have been people who have been bagging gold medals in international mathematics olympiad and whatnot there have been people who have got breakthrough challenges you know so hence nps is pretty much known in international circuit you just need to focus on what all other ingredients are required including good recommendation like that now there's a question what are the prospects of oci students taking up engineering indian colleges ma'am all engineering colleges welcome oci children in fact iids do not differentiate only differentiation will be in the fees part so idj advance so you can you know very well participate in our general merit and the same for nids as well so and bits they have a different route also so they have a uh dasa approach also so you can you know very much part be a part of engineering engineering system uh no my j advance is open categories so so if you really see the you know the um notification they say that if you are an oci you will have to participate in general merit and uh you know the only thing is the fee paid is different apart from that you are counted in general merit so you are clearing j advance you will be treated at par so there is no differentiation there nid has a different differentiation so nid may what happens is uh oci candidates not only end up paying four times more in even in government seats but also they have put us there that you know um because you are an oci even if you have a great rank you might not end up in the college of your choice so that's there in isc j advance route is always clear always there no need so you can always write j advance and get into isc right now j advance and nids uh are the routes so um if you happen to or let's see you want to really get into isc so prepare for j advance when they come up with new mechanism then it will be in the public domain i'll be right now there's nothing no visibility of that any other question which i might uh clarify or any other question you want to understand or no please let me know so our admission process for the next year has begun so uh children who are willing to you know join nps raja jagar in our course our admission process has begun so um yes sir we are carrying uh yes we are going ahead with the same plan so we are not taking care of whether kvpy is there or not does nps build portfolio for admission in overseas colleges yes nps have as i told you through they have you know um reasonable reach so they will not help you build portfolio they will give you good recommendations and predictive course so lots of nps raja jr students from our uh group have gone abroad so i can tell you that it's not a you know uh there you will be getting good um uh this thing recommendations and um olympiad scores for ug courses yes in uh cmi and is the cmi is one institution where you can use olympiad scores but only when you are in imotc that is training camp if you are in imotc then you get a wildcard entry to cmi and isi okay um if you are anywhere if you're cleared rmo cleared not cleared imo um then it will not count only when you are part of the camp then it is counted otherwise not i hope i answered um ug courses in india right and if you are let's say if you're if you're back to gold medal in imo or uh international junior science olympian you get a wildcard entry into many iv league colleges as well with a lot of scholarship so that's also there so uh any other question from any of the students you must interact and ask as many questions clear all your doubts and most important fact do not fall for what is being you know said everywhere go and talk to the people who are going to teach you next year that's very important because you will be in relationship with them when the faculty members for the next two years and if not more than that so hence talk to the people who are going to and parents i will request talk to the faculty members and people who are getting into the lives of your children because you know that will be a very important factor as to you know uh how is it going to be shaped up because it's you know you take admission in one set of scenario that's one thing but how does it pan out again as i keep repeating there is no one best solution it's all a compatibility your student or your child type and the mentors if the compatibility is good then it becomes productive else even if the the you know the faculty is outstanding and you know have a lot of credentials but the compatibility was not there it will not get or fetch the great result so that is very very important factor weightage of board marks in UG admission has been cancelled because of COVID so far there is no weightage as such you have to just pass your board exams 50 marks you have to just score earlier there was 75 qualifying there is no weightage except KCT Dhruva is that clear there is no weightage of your board marks in any of the exams except KCT the only criteria is many a times you will see they will say board pass or 50 marks whatever earlier pre-COVID there was a criteria on board marks 75 plus percent as you must score to be eligible to get into or get admissions there is no NTSC this year in all likelihood because it has been kind of you know they have cancelled it because last year NTSC itself has not been done so there is no update on I think the latest update is that they have postponed it till further order so we don't see it happening this year so that's something which is new for all of us as well yeah any other question so I hope you know children and parents could get this some information from whatever we covered and again as I told you if you need to contact me in person or you know so these are some contact numbers in here mentioned you can so these are some contact numbers on the screen you can reach out to me on the first number and to deal with on the second number for any understanding any course understanding this one understanding yeah so first number is my number and second number is the latest number third one is the office number so you can reach out to any of these numbers to talk to us and then we will be able to help you so even if you are taking a decision on your abroad going abroad or going to pu or whatever we are here to assist you so don't feel that okay you know you should not ask this you will reach out to us and we'll help you in any of the decisions you are going to make and we will be floating a WhatsApp group now for the next year so hence we will we'll be requesting parents who are interested in our program of J and need to join in there so we'll be having a comprehensive group right now first and then as we reach towards the end of this session we will divide into need and J accordingly okay any and in that group we'll be only talking about grade 11 or J need preparation from our side so we will be floating it it will be there in your WhatsApp group as well so the current WhatsApp group please join the group accordingly so with those words I really thank all the parents who joined us today and I hope the session was really fruitful and in case you had any other query as I told you please reach out to us thanks a lot all the parents have a lovely weekend yes I will be sharing ma'am no no I'll be sharing the stock copy through a link in the group itself I'll be posting it
