So, you’ve just completed the SEE exam — Nepal’s official teenage initiation ceremony where you suffer with math, memorize the history of kingdoms you never visited, and then emerge blinking into the bright, confusing sunlight of "What now?"

And boom — now everyone is asking:

“Tero stream k ho?”
“Science lina po lagya?”
“Management ley ta future nai bancha ni!”
“Humanities ley kaam gardaina bhancha!”

Stop. Breathe. And read this complete, no-nonsense, no-boredom guide to choosing the right stream after SEE — with a pinch of humor, a dollop of facts, and a whole lotta Bipin logic.

 What Are Streams After SEE?

Imagine you're at a career buffet. The waiter (a.k.a. the Nepali education system) offers you three popular main dishes:

1. Science – The legendary stream where Einstein, your cousin who became a doctor, and every tuition teacher comes from.

2. Management – The home of future CEOs, bankers, and kids who say "Mero business idea cha ni!"

3. Humanities – The stream for thinkers, creators, psychologists, writers, and those brave enough to say, “Yes, I chose arts.”

Now, the big question: Which one should YOU choose?

Let’s break it down — stream by stream — with jokes, facts, pros, cons, and all the tea.

 1. Science Stream: The Land of Labs and Legends

What It Includes:

• Subjects: Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics, Computer, English

• Types: Physical Group (PCM), Biological Group (PCB), or Both

• Best For: Students aiming for careers in medicine, engineering, IT, and research

Pros:

 Most career flexibility
 Opens door to both tech and medical fields
 Society treats you like royalty (for now)
 College brochures will fight over you

Cons:

 Say goodbye to free time
 High competition (prepare to enter the Hunger Games of entrance exams)
 Requires genuine interest – not parental pressure

Myth Busted:

“If you study Science, you’re automatically intelligent.”
Nope. Science doesn't guarantee genius. It just means you’re choosing the path of academic pain with purpose.

 2. Management Stream: The CEO Starter Pack

What It Includes:

• Subjects: Accountancy, Economics, Business Studies, Marketing, Hotel Management, English

• Best For: Future entrepreneurs, marketers, accountants, or anyone who loves Excel more than experiments.

Pros:

Practical and job-friendly
Huge demand in Nepal and abroad
Entrepreneurship opportunities (Startups, anyone?)
Easier time compared to Science (but still no joke!)

Cons:

 Less academic glam than Science (sorry, no white coats)
 Weak theoretical base for hardcore scientific fields
 You’ll still have to learn math (it never leaves )

Myth Busted:

“Management ho ta, yo ta easy ho ni!”
Sir/Ma'am, have you seen the tax calculations? One wrong comma and you're bankrupt in a simulation.

3. Humanities Stream: Not “Easy,” Just Different

What It Includes:

• Subjects: Sociology, Psychology, Rural Development, Mass Communication, English, Literature, History, Culture, Geography, etc.

• Best For: Students interested in social science, writing, journalism, education, psychology, philosophy, and civil services.

Pros:

 Great for UPSC, civil service, NGO/INGO jobs
 Scope in media, literature, and research
 Flexible and creative environment
 Low pressure and more time to explore

Cons:

 Still looked down upon by “mainstream” society
 Limited career awareness in Nepal
 Requires self-motivation and vision

Myth Busted:

“Only weak students take Humanities.”
False. Some of the world’s greatest thinkers, writers, diplomats, and Nobel Prize winners studied Humanities. Weak? Nah, woke.

 How to Choose the Right Stream (Without Regretting It in 6 Months)

Choosing a stream is like choosing a phone — everyone says theirs is best, but only you have to use it every day.

Here’s how to decide smartly:

1. Know Thyself (Not What Mama or Baba Want)

Ask yourself:

• What subjects do I genuinely enjoy?

• What career can I see myself doing?

• What do I hate studying?

If you faint at the sight of blood — maybe don’t choose biology. If you love drawing business plans in your math book — management might be for you.

2. Don’t Choose Based on Friends

Your bestie might go to Science, but if you hate Physics, you’ll regret following them. (And also probably fail.)

3. Talk to Real Students

Meet seniors or recent SEE graduates. Ask them about their life, not just marks:

“Science ley timi lai ke diyeko cha – stress ki scope?”
“Management padhera k garchhau aba?”
“Humanities ley future cha?”

Their experiences = your wisdom.

 After Class 11: What Can You Do With Each Stream?

Science:

• MBBS, Engineering, IT, Architecture, Pharmacy, Lab Tech, BSc, etc.

• Also allows a switch to Management or Humanities later

Management:

• BBA, CA, Banking, Hotel Management, Aviation, Entrepreneurship, Digital Marketing, etc.

Humanities:

• Mass Communication, BA, Law, Psychology, Civil Services, Literature, Sociology, etc.

Common Mistakes After SEE (Avoid These, Save Years)

Choosing Science just for prestige
Selecting Humanities assuming it’s easy
Relying only on GPA, not interest
Ignoring entrance preparation for competitive fields
Choosing colleges based on Facebook Ads (please don’t)

Real Talk from Bipin Dai:

“Your stream doesn’t define your future. Your passion, consistency, and how well you adapt — that’s what matters.”

Even if you start in one stream, you can always switch, upskill, and redirect your career. There are engineers who became actors, and management students who became scientists (hello, crossovers!).

 Bonus Tools: Stream Selection Checklist

Do I enjoy the subjects offered?
Have I researched career options in this stream?
Will I enjoy learning this for 2 years straight?
Have I visited/asked colleges about this stream?
Can I see myself working in this field in 5–10 years?

If you checked 4+ items, you’re likely on the right track.

 FAQs You Were Too Shy to Ask

Q: Can I switch streams after Class 11?
Yes, though it depends on colleges and timing. Better to choose wisely first.

Q: Which stream earns more?
Science and Management may start higher, but all streams can earn well if you're skilled and strategic.

Q: Is Humanities a good option in Nepal?
Absolutely — especially for law, psychology, journalism, social science, and civil service. But you’ll need more self-motivation.

Final Words: Choose with Confidence, Not Confusion

Choosing a stream is like choosing your next big adventure. Make it exciting, not exhausting. Don’t let family pressure, friend influence, or TikTok videos decide for you. Research, reflect, and choose what fits your passion and potential.
