My name is sreelesh. I passed 10th standard and also I choose science subject in higher secondary studies but I failed in 12th standard and my question is that I am eligible for studying aeronautical engineering or not? Can you please guide me?

The eligibility criteria for admission in any discipline of engineering is:

1. You must have passed 12th with PCM subjects or appearing for board examination from any recognized board.

2. Admission is either direct on basis of marks in 12th in private engineering colleges or through entrance exams like JEE, BITSAT, VITEEE etc.

You are not eligible for admission as you have failed in 12th board exams.

To become an Aeronautical Engineer after completion of your 10th standard, you have to pursue 11th and 12th standard with Science stream from a Government recognised board. After completion of your 12th standard with Science stream, you have to pursue your higher studies in Bachelor's degree in Aeronautical Engineering course. After completion of your Aeronautical Engineering course with good subject knowledge, you can work as a Aeronautical Engineer.

The procedure to become Aeronautical Engineering:

The very first step is to pursue senior secondary from a recognized board of India like CBSE or ICSE or state board in Science stream. Your science stream subjects should include Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics.

In next step, you should apply for engineering entrance exam called Joint Entrance Exam. The examination conducting authority is CBSE. It has two stages namely JEE Main and Advanced. After securing good rank, you can definitely get admission in top college.

Yes, you are eligible for Aeronautical Engineering course.

If you are failed in 12th standard, then you should re-appear for Board Exam of 12th and pass it with good marks.

Simultaneously, you can appear for engineering entrance exams like JEE Main, JEE Advanced, COMEDK, MH CET, etc.

After qualifying these exams, you can get admission to any Aeronautical engineering college.

Some of the popular Aeronautical Engineering colleges in India are:

• Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur.
• Indian Institute of Technology Mumbai
• Rajasthan Vidhyapeeth (Deemed)University, (Rajasthan)
• Hindustan Electronics Academy,Bangalore
• Institute of Aviation Technology, Haryana
• Anna University, Chennai
• Institute of Aeronautical and Marine Engineering, Bangalore
• Park College of Engineering and Technology, Coimbatore, (Tamil Nadu)
• School of Aviation Science and Technology, Delhi Flying Club, Safdarjung Airport, New Delhi
• Bangalore Institute of Aeronautical Engineering and Information Technology, Bangalore
• Indian Institute of Aeronautical Engineering, Dehradun
• Guru Gram Institute of Aeronautical Engineering & Technology
• Indian Institute of Technology Chennai
• Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur
• Indian Institute of Aeronautics, Patna
• Hindustan Institute of Engineering Technology, Chennai
• Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati
• Bihar Institute of Technology, Sindri, Ranchi.
• Mohammad Sathak Engineering College, Kilakarai.
• Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee
• Siddhartha Institute of Aeronautical Engineering and Information Technology
• Nehru College of Aeronautics and Applied Sciences, Coimbatore
• Indian Institute of Technology Delhi
• Punjab Engineering College, Chandigarh
• VSM Aerospace, Chelekere Village (Near Kammanahalli), Bangalore

How can you think to get admission in bachelor's degree course after failing in board examination of 12th. This is not possible.

In India the minimum prerequisite to get admission in engineering course is that you should be 12th board exam passed and generally 50% marks is minimum percentage of marks.

Only science stream candidates with Physics and Mathematics can pursue engineering course. Failed students of 12th should appear for supplementary exam or again board exam in next year to obtain minimum qualification for any graduation course.

Hope the information helps and clears you doubt regarding your eligibility.

The procedure to become an aeronautical engineering after 10th standard:

Since you have failed in 12th standard, there is no possibility for you to take admission in bachelor's degree in Aeronautical engineering. Only candidates who have passed in board of senior secondary are eligible for admission in engineering course.

You should reappear for board exam and secure good marks in subjects in which you have failed to become eligible for admission in engineering.

You can not get admission in Bachelor's degree in Aeronautical Engineering because you have failed in 12th. Higher secondary is the minimum academic qualification required for admission in Bachelor of Technology.

Candidates who fail in qualifying exam can not get admission in Engineering courses. You can apply for next year exam of Higher secondary board to score better marks and become eligible for engineering courses.

No, you are not eligible to get admission in aeronautical engineering course after 10th.

The required minimum qualification to get admission in course is candidate must have passed 12th with Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics as main paper.

So, you have to passed 12th with science stream and after that have to qualify in entrance examination as JEE or conducted by other institute for admission in course.
