Blog · YouTubeIn short: I started College and Careers, a YouTube channel that helps students pick colleges and careers that excite them, and understand colleges beyond their cutoffs. It continues the idea behind the Know Your Branch podcast I hosted at MARKS.
The question after Class 12
Every year, students make one of the biggest choices of their lives, which college and which career, often from cutoffs, rankings and what relatives say.
What I'd seen before
Hosting the Know Your Branch podcast at MARKS showed me how much students value honest answers from people who've been there.
So I started a channel
College and Careers helps students pick colleges and careers that excite them, not just ones that impress relatives, and understand colleges beyond their cutoffs.
What it covers
Career options after 12th Science, CSAB counselling cutoffs for NITs and IIITs, IIM Bangalore's UG program, why BITS Pilani, and a podcast reviewing Mesa School of Business.
Why it matters
Students aren't just preparing for an exam. They're preparing for life, and they deserve better information to do it.
