Hello Manish,The B.Sc Aviation is not better idea to become pilot.
If you are +2(PCM) student, then you are eligible to CPL (commercial piolt license) course. You can pursue this course after +2 to fill your pilot dream. But, this is very expensive. If you are a high school student, you are eligible to do PPL (private pilot license). This course is little expensive. But, after this your also need to do CPL.
Choose a better school.
All the best.

Hi Darshan,
Yes, you can, however, there is a risk. Though you can pursue the CPL training, you may not be easily accepted by any airline for the role of a pilot. Preferred height is more than 5'7 (minimum). There is no point investing in a course and not getting the ROI. You may look for ground jobs or aviation management jobs. There will always be scope within the aviation industry if you have the passion.
Good luck.
