Hello aspirant,

If you want to become a pilot in India, then you must start preparing after clearing the 10th boards. To become an airline pilot, you must opt for the PCM stream for 10+2 education, which consists of Physics , Chemistry and Mathematics . After passing 10+2, you can pursue bachelor degree programmes, such as B.Sc. in Aviation , B.Tech in Aeronautical Engineering , B.Tech in Avionics Engineering courses.

After completion of bachelor degree programmes, students need to complete a few certification programmes to get various licences, which includes Airline Transport Pilot License (ATPL), Commercial Pilot Licence (CPL), Private Pilot Licence (PPL) and Student Pilot Licence (SPL). Once you get the licences, you can apply for a specific airline to apply for the airline pilot job. For more details on the airline pilot career, you can check https://www.careers360.com/careers/airline-pilot .

Hello,

To become a pilot you need physics and mathematics  is compulsory in 10+2 level. As you did not have mathematics in your 10+2 level you are not eligible. You now have to give mathematics exams which is conducted by NIOS so that you will be eligible to peruse pilot career. After clearing the maths exam and having 50% aggregate in  Physics and mathematics you will be eligible to join any pilot training academy and become a pilot. National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS) conducts Senior Secondary examination twice a year, in March/April and in October/November. The NIOS 12th exam 2020 will be conducted in Hindi, English, Urdu, Bengali, Tamil, Punjabi, Odiya and Sanskrit medium. Please click the below link to know more about NIOS.

Yes, a Physics, Chemistry and Biology student can become a pilot by enrolling for Physics while entering the academic year of Second your junior college (SYJC) or if some student doesn't know about this while entering the academic year of SYJC then he or she will have to give a separate exam for physics after passing the 12th- grade exam with an aggregate of 60% in PCM.

After passing the 12th-grade exam he or she has 3 options like:-

  1. Commercial pilot
  2. Private Pilot
  3. Indian Air Force Fighter/Transport/Helicopter Pilot
  4. Indian Army Pilot
  5. Indian Navy fighter/Helicopter Pilot
  • Commercial Pilot:-

For an aviation aspirant to be a commercial pilot one needs to have huge wealth in terms of money or one needs to be top-ranked in his or her studies to join Government Flying Schools! So after completing 12th-grade board exams with an aggregate of 60% in PCM and after that, the process is very smooth and also one needs to obtain a PPL (Private Pilot Licence) in order to study and opt for Commercial Pilot Training and Licence according to the Directorate General Of Civil Aviation (DGCA) Government based flying authority in India. Also if one needs to join an airline he or she has to obtain a type rating from the DGCA certified flying school and should be of a minimum age 18years - 23years and should have a Class 1 and Class 2 medical certificate obtained from a DGCA Certified Doctor.
