Hi Biswajit,
There are indeed many opportunities for students with science stream, but at first, you'll need to complete your graduation degree. You can apply for B.Tech, B.Sc, BDS or even MBBS. Admission in any of these streams will open doors to a bright future for you. But if you'll take my advice then I will suggest you to apply at the University of Technology and Management.
UTM is a private university affiliated by MIT-Pune but is located in Shillong. Known as the best for its engineering and BBA courses, UTM offers different specialization programmes under the courses. To know more

Hi Lavi,
The commerce field is one of the best, every changing, dynamic, exciting and lucrative field in the business arena. After 12th with commerce, there are various fields you can explore. However, completing your B.Com graduation is most important since a graduation degree in commerce opens the doors for admissions to a number of courses.
The most relevant courses after HSC Commerce which can be done alongside completing the commerce graduation are chartered accountancy, company secretaryship, cost accounting, chartered financial analyst.
You may also shift to BBA or BBM or BMS or hotel management for graduation degree. CA, CS, CWA, CFA are known as professionals courses which lead to specialized careers in accounting/taxation/finance, secretarial practice law, cost accounting, financial analysis respectively.
The CA, CS, CWA are statutory professions and job opportunities for these professionals are growing and are in plenty. CFA is a niche career course. If you opt for BBA / BBM / BMS, etc., then doing MBA after graduation will be a sort of easy to complete. However, if you do an MBA from a very good Institute your career will be growing and very flourishing.
