To become a commercial pilot, one must possess CPL (Commercial Pilot Licence). This Licence is issued after a candidate clears the training programme from an Institute recognised by the Civil Aviation Authority of that particular country (DGCA in case of India). But to join CPL training programme, a candidate has to meet certain minimum educational qualifications requirements. Here they are-
* 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. 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.

ECE and EEE are the branches which sound quite similar.
EEE actually goes deeper than just "motors & generators". You also learn more about electromagnetics and how high-frequency signals operate - this is the black-magic that's required to design computer and wireless Systems, one can make more money as an EEE.
ECE: Here, it deals with electronics with some part of communication. The subject uses the scientific knowledge of the behavior and effects of electrons to develop devices, systems, or equipment that uses electricity as part of its driving force. Also, it contains basics on electrical machines and more on integrated circuits and communication systems. As far as scope is concerned, both EEE and ECE are evergreen branches. ECE students can get into IT sectors easily, while the demand of EEE students is high in core companies.
Personally, I feel that the stream might be unique but the only thing a student should focus on is the future goal. Once, he is sure with that, he can then choose the stream of his choice. So, I suggest ECE branch rather than EEE and it also depends upon your choice whether to choose ECE branch and shift to either (software, core) or else go deeper with the subject and choose EEE branch and target a job in the core companies.
