My son has secured 81% in commerce subject for CBSE 12th Examination, 2018 . Which course will be proper selection for him.

There are umpteen B.Com (Hons. & General) courses available post class 12 offered by renowned colleges across India. Hons. course will be better suited for a high score like this. Accounting, Economics, Statistics are on a roll. They have several emerging applications as well. He can explore professional courses like CA too. Prospective courses should be aligned to his specific academic interests.

Hi Sir,

Since your son has had a commerce background at school and is aiming for management courses, I've listed some top  management courses that he can consider going for:

1. BBA

BBA stands for Bachelor of Business Administration. BBA’s course duration is 3 years. There are many Private as well as Government Institutes, which offer this course.

After BBA, one may also go for PG (Post Graduate) course MBA. MBA will take another 2 years to complete! Some Colleges even provide BBA course that focuses on a particular discipline. For example- BBA in Airport Management and BBA in Event Management. If one pursues one such highly job oriented discipline, career prospects will surely get a boost! Some such well known BBA honors programs are-

• Banking and Insurance

• International Business

• Aviation Management

• Healthcare Management

• Event Management

• Tourism and Travel Management

Talking about job opportunities, it is the private sector that offers ample job opportunities to BBA graduates. There are Government sector jobs too, for which BBA Graduates may apply!

2. BMS:

BMS stands for Bachelor of Management Studies. BMS’ course duration is 3 years. To the untrained eye, both BBA and BMS may look like the same course! To an extent, both BBA and BMS courses have lots of similarities too! They are basically Management related courses. However, BMS is more focused on traditional management studies such as analytics. On the other hand, BBA is focused more towards core subjects related to Business studies.

After completing BMS, students may go for MBA. When it comes to job opportunities, Corporate houses are the biggest recruiters. Small and medium sized companies also hire BMS freshers.

3. BBA+MBA INTEGRATED COURSE

As the name suggests, this course is combination of both BBA as well as MBA Degrees. The course duration is 5 years. The biggest advantage of pursuing this course is that students won’t have to apply for PG course MBA after BBA separately. Further, only reputed Institutes are offering this Integrated course in India, one of them being IIM Indore. It offers Integrated Programme in Management which is a 5-year integrated course (BBA+MBA). An integrated course like this one is beneficial for 12th pass students, who won’t have to prepare separately for MBA admission!

4. Hotel Management

Hotel management studies aims at preparing students to take on various roles in the tourism as well as Hotel Industry. Degree cours e- Bachelor of Hotel Management lasts 4 years.

After graduation, one may find a good job in Tourism sector. Tourism sector is booming in India right now. Government is investing heavily in this sector and is coming up with innovative ideas such as Railway tourism, Adventure tourism, Ayurveda Tourism etc. All this means that the Hotel Management & Hospitality Business will continue creating new job opportunities!

These are the top courses according to me. But then you can also choose from a lot of options like B.Sc., BBS, B.A. courses, Diploma courses etc. However, these are not too lucrative as compared to the top ones listed above.
