Many students believe that only science students can become pilots but that s not true. A commerce student can become pilot after completing 12th provided they meet the eligibility requirements set by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA). The main subjects required are Physics and Mathematics but if a commerce student did not study them in school they can still qualify by passing these two subjects separately through the National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS).
Clear 12th class (any stream) - You just need to complete 12th from a recognized board.
Study Physics and Mathematics separately - If not studied earlier you can appear for these subjects through NIOS.
Apply for Pilot CET - Pilot CET helps you get guidance counselling and access to top DGCA approved flying schools across India.
Clear DGCA medicals - You must be medically fit (Class 1 Medical Certificate).
Join a Flying Training School - After clearing Pilot CET you can join a flight training academy and start your journey towards a Commercial Pilot Licence (CPL).
Pilot CET is the best way for a commerce student to become pilot as it provides clear guidance connects you to the best flying schools and helps you understand DGCA exams requirements and costs. It ensures you take the right steps from the start saving both time and money. So yes even if you are from a commerce background your dream to become a pilot is absolutely possible. All you need is passion the right direction and dedication.
