SSC students look at turning their talent into their career

PANJIM: With Goa Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education set to declare the SSC results on Saturday, students who have answered the exam are both worried and expectant. Worried about the result, expectant about the future and what stream to opt for. Luckily, say the students, the choice is wide.

“Thankfully in our small state of Goa we have a variety of courses offering a wide range of fields we like. The list of career options are endless. We have so much to choose from and it all looks very exciting and cool,” said a student from Panjim.
But students have got smart and are looking to make careers out of their talents. “The selection of a career or a profession is important but turns difficult due to the lack of guiding services. Turning your talent into your career is amazing,” said a teacher.
Some young buds have already decided on their career choice. Nigel Dias from Dona Paula who expects to score over 75% is planning on hotel management and aims to be a chef. Another student, Emanual Cabral expecting a score of over 80% will be looking at continuing his education in the science stream and has even decided that he wants to do it at Fr. Agnel Higher Secondary, Pilar. Pamela Rosario will be opting for commerce and her choice of institution is the Our Lady of the Rosary Higher Secondary School, Dona Paula. 
Most students Herald spoke to have big dreams and credit their parents with supporting these dreams.
