Hello Sir, I am Ayan Santra I live in west Bengal. I just pass my 10th exam and I scored 84% aggregate and more than 90% in all Science subjects. I want to join ISRO as a Space Scientist. How can i do that?

You have passed 10th standard with very nice percentage. You are interested to get job in ISRO as scientist. Basically ISRO recruits engineering students every year for scientist post. Following are the eligibility for ISRO scientist post recruitment:

Educational qualification: Student must possess B.E/ B.Tech degree in Electronics/ Computer Science/ Mechanical from a recognized university with at least 65% marks.

Age Limit: The maximum age limit is 35 years. Relaxation in maximum age limit is given to reserved category students as per govt. norms.
