After exam

Studies over. Holiday on. This is probably the time children will have most fun simply because they know there is work to be done after the results. So even if they feel tired they still want to take advantage of this particular period which happens only after exams and specifically after board exams.

We should not stop them from having fun. But when they do take a break we need them to do something for themselves. Have a certain idea what they would like to do in life. 

We can categorize children into 3 broad types regarding career and future planning.

2 categories of students

1. Students who have an idea what they are going to do. Notice I did not say students who know what they want to do. These students have chosen science. Maybe they want to become doctors or engineers or chartered accountants. This all depends on their environment they have been brought up in. Maybe their parents are already in the profession they have chosen. It is also highly possible that the children have chosen the profession because they saw themselves as a doctor or engineer or a CA.

Part of this category are children who are from business class and they know what they would eventually be doing. Unless of course they decide on a different path.

2. The second and large chunk of students have no idea what they are going to do. They are the ones whose parents are either in small jobs or in occupations that are less glamorous. Chances are they are not earning handsomely either. That is the reason they do not encourage their children to emulate them. 

The problem with these children is that they have minimum direction and no aspiration since they have no one to emulate. They are now waiting for their results so they can choose their stream according to their marks. Good marks and they will probably go to commerce. Some will probably take up science. If some get not so good marks then they will take arts. Some will fail. For these students the options are for giving the exam again or get to work - or as parents would say learn something worth while.

These a the students that make a difference to the progress of any nation because they constitute a big chunk of the student body. And these are the ones that need direction.

Unfortunately, for them they have wasted 12-13 years of their life learning something which they did not grasp fully and something which they may not find useful in their professional life.

These children will go to college in herds. They will choose the college their close friends have chosen. They go to college because they want to enjoy college life. For most of them it's the thrill of wearing trendy clothes and being away from nagging parents. However, when most of them, not all, but most of them, graduate they will usually look for jobs by influence because they have no inkling what use the information that they learned in school is. 

So what's the solution for these children?

In the face of it, the solution is simple. You noticed how or school and college system works. It gives one size fits all information

 Give these children direction. And once they ate sure where they want to go - give them information.

 who are waiting for their results. Who will decide after results

Results agar pass ho gaye to science, commerce or arts. 

So this is for those students who have not decided. 

First. You are very late. You should have decided so that you could have planned your STD 10 result that way. 

Have you decided on you career.

But there is good news for you. You will probably be the more successful people of the lot.

By successful I don't mean millionaires but people who have found a balance in life.

So today we will take the first step towards choosing a career.

When you talk of carets we think of engineering, medical maybe marketing, CA maybe.

lekin this is not the way to decide your profession

What you do is when you settle down for the night take a piece of paper and write down the T least 5 things you like to do. At least 5 

Apptitude tests. Psychometric tests.

one set of people are supposed to join their family business and depending on the business they pay attention to studies. agar shop hai toh pass ho gaye toh great and then commerce.

doctors ke bacche doctors etc

but there is a large section of students that has not decided what to do

how can that be solved.

Hi guys. Exams are over and what are most of us thinking about. Yes. It's party time. It is simple logic. Nobody knows what the result is going to be so we worry. And I agree completely. This is not the time to worry. In fact, it is never the time to worry. Worrying never solved anything. Partying too will not really help in anyway except give some satisfaction for a little time. How would you like to party when you want all your life. Sounds nice? For that you will have to pay a small price.
I would suggest using this time to do something constructive.
