Hey am a PCM 12pass student I was interested in NDA with 12 but I failed and now am not eligible... Now I took a drop as I am totally confused what to choose now like choosing defence or ssc or b tech To be honest am still confuse... I also searched a lot about merchant Navy but here also am confuse and worried... Now plz suggest me what to do?

It’s okay to feel lost right now. Many students go through this after 12th.
You had an interest in NDA, which means you have discipline and courage in you.
Even if you missed NDA, you can still join the defence later through CDS after graduation.
If you want a steady government job, SSC is a great option with strong career growth.
If you like technology and logical work, a B.Tech can open many career paths.
Take some time to understand what truly excites you: serving, studying, or solving.
You haven’t failed; you’re just finding your right direction. Your journey’s not over yet.
