Hello Sir/Madam, I want to become a Pilot. I am studying in 8th standard. Can you please let me know how can I become a Pilot? What I have to do for achieving my aim?

For becoming a pilot, you need to complete at least 10+2 standard.

Since, you are in 8th standard now, so after passing 10th standard from a recognized Board (like CBSE, ICSE or state board, etc.), you will have to choose streams.

For 11th and 12th standard, you will have to choose PCM stream i.e. Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics.

You can also choose PCMB stream (i.e. with Biology). But make sure you must have Physics and Mathematics subject in your curriculum. Because, these subjects are required for becoming pilot.

If you wish to become IAF pilot, then you can apply for NDA exam to join Air Force wing.

Else, if you wish to become Commercial Pilot, then you can apply in Commercial Pilot training institutes.

In both the cases, you will have to clear exams to get admission.
