Gone are those days when a student after clearing his/her class 12th studies in Science stream would opt for engineering, medical or BSc courses. Today, a science student has the liberty to choose from various Commerce and Arts & Humanities courses as well without paying too much of an attention to the popular opinion related to it which proclaims that a science student is not doing justice to his/her education by opting for non-science subjects at the higher studies level.

Those who have completed their +2 studies from the science background have a big advantage - the freedom to choose from both science and non-science available options - a freedom which is never available to those who have completed their class XIIth studies from commerce or arts background.

In this article, we will try to provide the students with a list of popular courses from each stream they can pursue after completing their class XIIth studies from the science background. Along with the courses, the eligibility criteria and list of top institutes offering those courses are also mentioned in the sections that follow.
