AN INFORMATIVE WEBINAR ON STREAM SELECTION FOR PRESIDIANS

06-02-2021
For most students in class 10th, visions of a career path are mostly restricted to childhood dreams. Ever since those early flights of fancy, very few actually give their career choice a serious thought. The choice of the stream (subject) directly affects the career.

The webinar helped the students accumulate the skills and knowledge that Marks are, no doubt, a reflection of one’s capabilities, but they should not be the sole reason for choosing a stream. It is the orientation style, interest, personality, subject proficiency, and emotional intelligence that should be the essential key factors before we go for stream selection.
