Students of class 10th have till now studied common subjects of Social Science consisting of History, Civics, Geography, and Economics; General Science consisting of Physics, Chemistry, and Biology; Mathematics; English and one more regional language. So the students have a fair idea of all the four streams. The four streams that are available to students of North India are –

  • Medical – which primarily includes Physics, Chemistry, and Biology; short-formed as PCB
  • Non-Medical – which includes Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics; known as PCM.
  • The third popular stream is Commerce – It includes three main subjects of Accountancy, Economics and Business Studies. The students of commerce have a choice to take Mathematics or do their eleventh and twelfth without Math. They can take any subject like Physical Education, Computer Science, etc. if they do not enjoy doing Math. The experts recommend taking Math in Commerce especially if you’re good at Mathematics because it will help you in clearing BBA or MBA entrance exams later on. Also, in case you wish to do B.Com (Hons.) from Delhi University; you will be considered only if you have taken Math as a main or additional subject in class twelve.
  • The fourth stream available to the students of class 10th is Humanities or Arts – In this, students can take any subject that has interested them till now like English as major or History or Economics or Sociology or Psychology or even Physical Science as their major. Humanities stream has the maximum options to pursue in career.
