I got 71% in 12th science. I want to become a pilot. What should I do?

Hello, Non-Science stream students may pursue the required subjects through NIOS. NIOS schooling can be used to meet the above-mentioned requirements. Apart from NIOS, non-science stream students may also pursue the required subjects as private candidates from their respective state boards too. * The minimum marks required is 50% (may vary from Institute to Institute) aggregate marks Fitness (Medical) Standards to Be Met- A Commercial Pilot has to be fit- physically and mentally. That is why, during the selection process, lots of emphases is laid on the medical status of the candidate. Here are some medical standards set by authorities, which interested candidates have to satisfy in order to get selected into the CPL training program- * Class 1 Medical certificate is needed before joining the CPL training course. * Eyesight specifics- one eye has to have perfect eyesight, without any defects (6/6). It is allowed to have a certain imperfection in the eyesight of the other eye (6/9). But this imperfection should be correctable to 6/6. * Candidate must not have any serious physical deformity. Also, he/she should not have any kind of mental disorder or any history of having such a mental illness. All the best.

The candidate must have cleared 10+2 Science stream schooling with Physics and Mathematics as the main subjects (age of candidate should not be less than 17 years when the course starts) * Non Science stream students may pursue the required subjects through NIOS.

CPL course requires training + examinations + checks + medicals to complete the training. You can directly walkin to any DGCA approved flying school/club and take admission there. Provided you have passed class 12 with PCM 50% aggregate marks. Which I can see you have very well done. Medicals require two stages Class 2 followed by Class 1. Each is done separately and at separate organizations. Proper appointment is required well in advance and then the tests are conducted. DGCA conducts CPL examination at every three months interval. Air Regulations, Aviation Meteorology, Air Navigation, Technical General and Technical Specific are the examination required to be cleared. For which proper ground training is given by flying schools or external training institutions. WPC Conducts RTR examination for issue of CPL in their or examination centres all across the country. You will have to prepare and get through this exam and acquire RTR(A) License to operate the radios in the aircraft. Flying training requires 200hours to be flown. It includes solo flying, cross country, day, night, instruments and flying checks to complete the entire 200 hours of training. After completion of all this your documents will be submitted to DGCA which is the regulatory authority of India. They will examine all your flying reports and progress. After thorough inspection they will issue your CPL. Then, you can call that you have completed the CPL training. Hence the process is not time bound and is expensive too. The final costs for CPL training can go upto 50 lakhs. Apart from this you may like to see my article on the same topic to get more understanding.
