Education and Career Forum

I'm a 17 year old student studying in class 12th and I aspire to become a pilot. I have English, Physics, Chemistry and Biology along with Physical education. I don't have Maths. Is it possible that if I get really good percentage in Boards then can I get into Pilot training course? As I really don't want to waste 1 year in open schooling. I really want to fly and accomplish my dream of becoming a pilot. Please help! Regards
