To become a pilot, basic math skills, especially in arithmetic, geometry, and some trigonometry, are important. In countries like India, completing physics and math at the 10+2 level is a requirement for enrolling in pilot training programs. While strong math skills are helpful, average proficiency is often enough, as many calculations can be done with calculators or software during training. Therefore, if you only have basic math knowledge from class 10, you will need to further study math and physics to pursue a career as a pilot.
