If you wish to go for the BSc Geography Hons course, then in most of the colleges, they state the eligibility criteria to have Geography along with Mathematics in 10+2. So if you don't have the subject of Mathematics in 10+2 along with Geography, you won't be able to pursue BSc Geography, in most of the colleges.

Although, you can do the BA in Geography course. Apart from this, if you wish to take Generic Elective with your BSc Geography (if you get a chance in any college), then it would be dependent on the college you take admission in, which additional subjects be offered. In general, as the BSc Geography course is offered to the student with science background in there 10+2, the electives include subjects such as Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics (Mathematics is a good choice for BA Geography as well), Economics etc.

I hope this helps. Wish you a great eve!

Hello Aspirant,

I hope you are doing well.

I would advise you to pursue higher education if you wish to work in the field of geography. If not, you can take the SSC CGL, CHSL, or Railways exams, for which you must study for the Quant, Reasoning, English, and GA sections. Salary is set according to various pay bands.

Or you can take the UPSC CSE/State Public Service examinations to become an IAS/State PCS officer, which would earn you a respectable wage.

If you are interested in employment, you can submit an application for positions such as cartographer, geographer, lecturer or instructor, regional or urban planner, and so on. If you don't want to work a full-time job, you can also pursue internships.

I hope this helps.

Good Luck
