Dear Sir,
What stream should I join in Higher Secondary if I am doing English, Painting, Indian Culture and Heritage, Home Science, Data processing, Psychology in 10th standard of NIOS Board?

You must obviously join arts stream. The subject combinations that you have currently in NIOS will be best complemented by arts stream in class 11. There will be quite a few arts subjects to choose from. You need to have English as one of the language subjects. You need to choose 4 more subjects from arts domain. By looking into your subject combination in 10th standard, I have few suggestions. If possible, take up Nutrition, Painting and Sculpture, Education and Political Science as the other 4 subjects. You can replace Education with Psychology, if that combination is available in your school. Generally these combinations are school dependent. Sometimes schools don't give you a choice. Whatever subjects they offer, you are bound to take them all up. If you do not fall into such a shallow situation, then do keep in mind the subjects I mentioned for you.
