Aeronautical Engineering is one of the most lucrative but tough careers to make. It is because of the following facts:

1. First of all make sure you are doing the basics right. You must have studied Maths, Physics and Chemistry in your class 11th and 12th. This is because, science stream needs to be studied in order to advance into engineering domains.

2. Then, make sure you score really good marks in your academics so that you have a credibility towards others. There are entrances that you would need to give such as IIT JEE, AIEEE, BITSAT, WB JEE, SRMEEE, VITEEE, etc which are nothing but engineering entrances that one needs to crack to get into a good B.Tech college.

Most of the exams conducted are of technical nature wherein they would test your knowledge of Physics, Chemistry and Maths. Please be careful as these would be one of the toughest exams in the country to crack.

Once you are through, then you can start thinking about your career in this domain.
