Explanation:
Career counselling should be done in the school itself for class 9-11 students specifically because these are the levels where students choose a particular stream as their specialisation and also, it will be helpful for them to decide the stream they should opt for. This is because many students are not satisfied with the stream they choose and tend to change it; this happens in absence of proper guidance about options available as per their interest and different education stream.
Nowadays, many counsellors prefer psychometric tests to analyse interests of students because generally, students are confused between their various interests but these psychometric tests help figure out students’ capabilities towards each of their interest.
With career counselling, students would be able to know –
Their aptitude and interests
Strengths and weaknesses of a particular interest
Making choice of stream for education after class 10
Career options available in market as per their academic choice
Career options available as per their interest
Some alternate career options if they decide to change their stream in future
