hello Javidkhan ,

yes , you can surely become a geologist .

  • To become a Geologist, the student must has completed their 10+2 examination from any stream & pursues a bachelor’s degree from any university.
  • After passing the bachelor degree, students can pursue the master degree. If you want to get admission in government colleges, you have to appear for the national level exam like GATE 2019 .
  • Some universities conduct their own exams.

Hope this helps.

Hey.

A student with a Science background is more suitable than a humanities for becoming a geologist.  Knowledge of physics, chemistry, math, geography, botany and zoology is a must as it includes various areas of Studies like geophysics, atmospheric science, oceanography hydrogeology  palaeontology  study of the origin of life, crystallography, geostatistics and geochemistry.
Having science subjects in 12th is the minimum eligibility criteria for most institutes.
Best of luck
