Hello aspirant,

The minimum qualifications to become a pilot is scoring at least 55% aggregate marks in 10+2 in Science Stream (Physics, Chemistry and Maths)

If you are a non-science student then you can study these subjects by enrolling in a course conducted by NIOS (National Institute of Open Sciences).

As mentioned above the minimum qualifications to join a flying school, after joining a flying school one has to sail through many medical and physical tests to become eligible for the post of a pilot.

The main subjects to study to become a pilot are high school level science (physics and chemistry) and maths.

How to become a pilot after graduation?

While it is not necessary to have an engineering degreee in aerospace engineering I have a friend of mine who is a successful PIlot after having a degree in Civil Engineering, So it doesn't matters which branch you chose unless and untill you have a science backgroud.

Well, as mentioned earlier having studied 10+2 level science is the minimum requirement to be eligible to attend any flying school, so a grad level degree on top of that (if you were a science student) won’t change the path you’d have to follow to become a pilot.

But, if you were not a science student in your school years, then you’d have to write an exam conducted by the NIOS to become eligible for the later courses that the flying schools have to offer.

I hope this helps.
