Failing in 12th standard is not end of the world! But many Indian parents and students thinks so! Come on, just getting schooled is not enough! To excel in life, skills are required the most, not schooling! One shouldn’t be disheartened upon failing in 12th standard. One may apply for re writing the exams or move on with some new courses. Here, I’ll share with you some good courses for such 12th failed students. These courses will ensure that you have a good career. I’m only listing the few ones that I’ve hand-picked.
See, it is always recommended to re write the 12th standard exams. But, if you insist on getting the list of courses that are good, I’ll suggest you the following list-
Some good courses for 12th failed students
#1 Some good diploma courses
In case you are a 12th science failed student, you may use your 10th standard marks and certificate and get yourself enrolled in diploma courses. The various diploma courses are-
- Mechanical Engineering
- Electrical Engineering
- Civil Engineering
- Computer Engineering
These are some of the many diploma course that you can do. These courses can be done directly after 10th standard, depending on your marks. And since you failed in 12th class, you may submit your 10th standard’s mark-sheet and certificate to get into this course!
#2 Some relatively new diploma courses
The above mentioned courses are the ‘traditional ones’, for which a 12th failed student is eligible. But here, I’ll list some courses that are relatively new and have good job and career opportunities.
Let’s take a look at those new diploma courses-
Diploma in Marine field
There are different diploma courses within this field. Like- diploma in marine engineering (based on 10th standard marks), diploma in marine technology, other diploma courses like welder, wire man, sailor etc.
These courses have an eligibility criteria of 10th pass. So, 12th failed students may easily apply for these courses and get accepted!
The career opportunities that these courses offer is unparalleled. The salary will be good and the career adventurous!
But before you join any institute offering these courses, make sure that you do a good background check of it. Check whether the institute has been approved by the Government. Also check factors like- the quality of the faculty, the infrastructure and the facilities provided, whether they are following a recognized curriculum and syllabus etc. Join only after examining these things.
Diploma in various computer courses
A very good option indeed. There are loads of computer courses to choose from- programming, graphics design, web designing, app development, ethical hacking, digital marketing etc.
There are many institutes that offers diploma courses on these subjects. Usually, these courses are 6 months to 1 year long. At the end, on the completion of the course, students are given a certificate. Good institutes also provide placement in good companies.
The advantage of these courses is that you may start your own business based on the skills you acquire! It is all about skills and making use of them.
But before you join any institute to do the above mentioned courses, make sure that you go through the routine background checking process! It is necessary to select a ‘recognized’ institute. Nowadays, there are many ‘fake’ and inferior quality institutions operating throughout India!
Computer hardware and networking courses
I think these courses are most preferred by 12th failed students. I see many of them enrolling up for hardware and networking courses. Of course, there are some big institutes offering the above mentioned courses. The duration of the course varies between 1-2 years. In the end, students are awarded with a certificate. Depending on the institute, there are also chances of getting placement!
Diploma courses in industrial courses
India’s industrial growth is taking place at a very fast pace. Just take a look at Gujarat, there are some many production industries in this state. So many new ones are formed each year!
With the increase in the number of industries, the demand of skilled workers is also on the rise! Skilled workers like- electricians, welders, fitters, fire and safety personnel etc are in huge demand.
And the good news is that there are many institutes that offers diploma course and ITI courses of these subjects. They offer hands on training and prepare you for taking up jobs in those industries.
There are many institutes that offers courses like- fire and safety, electrician course, welding etc. Don’t be fooled that the career opportunity is limited and the pay will be low! Skilled workers are rewarded well! You may even go to gulf countries, where skilled workers are valued and paid well!

Being from kerala the cut off here for math is 50%…I cant go for engineering in kerala anymore..and am not interested to study in other states. I am thinking of taking bcom….but with such low percent will I be able to get into any good college? in case i gt into a college, will I be able to manage as I was a science student? sir, can you please give me few good colleges here in kerala where I could study bcom with this percent if you are aware of any? thanks a lot!
Whether you’ll get admission (B.Com.) or not depends on the overall merit situation and cutoff marks. You may take a look at previous year’s cutoff marks and get n idea about whether you will get admission or not. Science students are eligible to pursue B.Com. course. If you are willing to work hard after securing admission, you may adapt well to this new course.
