One can take Mathematics, Physics and English subjects along with other subjects in 10+2, to become a pilot in future. One has to get trained as a pilot through a Commercial Pilot Training course. The course is eligible for the candidates who have passed higher secondary or 12th standard with a minimum of 50% marks in Mathematics and Physics. The admission will be done through an entrance examination in some institutions. One has to be fit to fly physically and mentally. So you can take the group in which you can study Physics and Mathematics.

For becoming a pilot, you need to study physics and maths at class 12th level. Hence, you must opt for PCM stream in class 11th, if your aim is to become a pilot. Being a female, you can apply for Indian air force only after graduation for flying branch through CDS and AFCAT.

You can study graduation in subject like engineering, physics and maths to become eligible for CDS and AFCAT for pilot job. You also need excellent eyesight and there is a separate test which is called PABT, which you need to pass.

In order to make your career as a Pilot after the completion of class 10th, first of all you must have to opt Science stream in class 11th. Under Science stream, you must opt Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics as a subject combination to proceed towards your career of Pilot.

For being a pilot you have to get a Student Pilot License (SPL) first. For that you have complete your intermediate in science stream with the subjects including Physics and Maths. After that you have to register yourself in a recognized flying club by DGCA. After that you have to face 4 level training. Thanks

There is no such specific subject for in +2 level of standard in order to become a Pilot in future, you should just have to opt for Science in your +2 level and should have scored a minimum of 60% in aggregate.

You will have to either opt for JEE(Main) examination or you should have to opt for NDA examination in future in order to become a pilot in future.

The stream that you wanted to choose depends on your interest as the condition for becoming a Pilot is that you should take Physics and Maths in your Intermediate irrespective of other subjects.

Physics and maths are two subjects which are important for the Pilot job. So, make sure you have studied PCM stream in your class 12th in case you are interested in this field.

For fighter Pilot job you need to apply for exams like NDA after class 12th and for Commercial Pilot training you need to take admission at an institute offering such course.
