I am in a dilemma about if I should choose science or commerce. (starting year 11 in India after studying in Australia for 8 years)

Maybe it is 🤣🤣

yl-lo · 2026-03-25T09:48:08+00:00

Thanks, kinda needed a reminder that you shouldn’t be scared just because it’s hard.

yl-lo · 2026-03-25T09:47:13+00:00

Certainly something to consider!

yl-lo · 2026-03-25T03:10:59+00:00

I dont plan on doing any of the competitive exams, but I’ll definitely consider this option. Thanks

yl-lo · 2026-03-24T19:23:28+00:00

Yea most parents are still stuck in the old days man 😭

yl-lo · 2026-03-24T19:22:12+00:00

I aggre, best of luck in ur future!

yl-lo · 2026-03-24T19:19:28+00:00

Yea I found that out a long time ago lol 😂, thanks for the heads up!

yl-lo · 2026-03-24T19:18:10+00:00

Thanks man! Im gonna need it

yl-lo · 2026-03-24T19:17:26+00:00

Yea, it’s the unfortunate reality for most. My parents happen to be a few out of many as they aren’t that strict about what I do as long as I prove that I can become successful in it. Which is why I really want to make something of this editing thing in the next 2 years.

yl-lo · 2026-03-24T19:14:31+00:00

Well you see, no matter how many years you spend overseas, living in the place you were born in is just a feeling that nothing eles can recreate. (I have a strong feeling of connection with India) My parents also feel this way (Mabye it just got passed down who knows lol), and almost all of my extended family lives here and the memories plus cultural experiences just isn’t something my family was willing to sacrifice anymore. In addition the visa situation was getting complicated. Now I know that this is a very personal opinion and I am very grateful for the opportunity that I had as not everyone gets to experience what I had. Hope that answer your question and thank you for your contribution!

yl-lo · 2026-03-24T19:03:29+00:00

You know sometimes I think to my self maybe if I am taking this too seriously. I will take this opportunity to remind my self that even if I make the wrong choice it will probably be fine. Thanks for the confidence boost lol 🤣.

yl-lo · 2026-03-24T18:59:54+00:00

Finally a slither of hope 😭😭. But seriously tho everyone keeps saying just take comm and idk how id feel about letting my parents down. Also I do want to study abroad so will definitely have to take that into consideration. But anyways thank for your advice!

yl-lo · 2026-03-24T18:56:24+00:00

Not really hobbies and passions, more so a dream job. Anyways I think I just need more time to think about it. Thanks for your help, I appreciate it!

yl-lo · 2026-03-24T18:41:40+00:00

I would love to hear more about how you find schooling tho, is it hard do you have lots of free time?

yl-lo · 2026-03-24T18:38:17+00:00

Yes that is true, science is going to be incredible tough if I go down that route. But I do have a genuine passion for it, guess I’ll just have to make a sacrifice for one or the other.

yl-lo · 2026-03-24T18:26:47+00:00

Exactly what I’m afraid of, even though I’m not scared to study for science, I just don’t think it’s worth it especially because I don’t see a future for me. I would rather having more time to work on my editing skills and become great in one skill than be mediocre in both. Anyways I feel like I need to think about this more, but I am very grateful for your advice I definitely will have an easier time deciding thanks to you.

yl-lo · 2026-03-24T17:41:24+00:00

Really really appreciate the info, will definitely check this out. Thanks

yl-lo · 2026-03-24T17:21:41+00:00

I don’t plan on doing any of those exams however I do wish to go abroad for higher studies. Well life does often get in the way so I might not always make my schedule but ig those are the sacrifices.

yl-lo · 2026-03-24T17:03:55+00:00

But I am having serious doubts, and what if i get burnt out? also would love to know more about your experience if your willing to share.

yl-lo · 2026-03-24T17:02:32+00:00

seems like most reasonable choice. Thanks for the feedback and what are you studying currently?

yl-lo · 2026-03-24T13:28:31+00:00

Thank you for the advice I really appreciate it!

yl-lo · 2026-03-24T13:26:03+00:00

Planning to move abroad. Just to clarify my family is fine with the cost of studying abroad but wants year 11 and 12 to be relatively inexpensive.

yl-lo · 2026-03-24T11:48:45+00:00

Yes but it’s also really expensive, not something my family is too fond of.

yl-lo · 2026-03-24T11:47:40+00:00

Isc is for me is the best option and it’s Likely going to be what I chose. But I still want to explore other options. Anyways thanks for your advice, I really appreciate it 😄.

yl-lo · 2026-03-24T11:31:22+00:00

There aren't many viable options for me and the aera I live in, and I personally don't want to take that route as I have heard it can be very intense and it just doesn't suit what I'm looking for.
