Career Counseling

A student gets 3 chances for appearing in JEE Mains and of course in getting admission in one of the NIT from the passing year of 12th. So, by this logic, you are still eligible to get admission, but yes you have asked a very pertinent question. Here I would like to advise you that in the previous year almost 50% fresh engineering graduates were jobless. This does not mean that graduates from NIT were jobless. But this is an overall figure. In view of this I would rather advise you to think of some other career in a field that fascinates you are that gives you the feeling of challenge. I am sure with this selection you will do well in your career because this is what perhaps you like. If you like engineering, so be it, continue with your admission process.

If it's the question about the low is, then I suggest you to introduce him to some practical work, like getting him into an ITI course. There he will be able to gain practical knowledge with proper instructions. If he is refuses to do that, then Try whatever he is good in like painting, singing, dancing, music, sports, etc. And support him to do the same. Career wise it is good but he must be really good at those things. The last option may be to give him a start up for small business like grocery store, barber shop, a small restaurant, etc. Also about the low iq do not worry there are thing that can be learnt for the first time and with practice people get better ATIT. He will just need your support. Hope this helps.
