In Small Town and even in cities, a lot of students do Bsc from local colleges in the nearby areas. Most Students in the early stage of their life do not know what to do in life and what to study. Even Parents are not so much aware of various career options available at the present time and due to which they are also not able to help their children in decision making regarding their career.
One of the major reasons why students do Bsc from a local college is the fear of parents in sending children to a distant place for study. So they ask their ward to take admission in BSc in a local college.
So now whatever decision is taken in the past, the question is what should students do after taking admission in BSc in any specialization? What are the options available for them after the Bsc gets completed?
So, let's see what to do after completing BSc? I would suggest you go for a higher degree after
your graduation i.e. Bsc degree or go for Government Job because BSc graduates are paid less
by private companies. Also, it's better which the option you have to choose that you can start
the preparation in the graduation days itself.
So let`s see the list of options available after completing BSc (Any Specialization)
- Prepare for CAT
- Prepare for IIT JAM
- Prepare for Government Exams
- Prepare for Army
- Do Bed
Prepare for Common Entrance Test (CAT)
After your Bsc Degree, doing an MBA would be a good option as you get very well paid after your MBA degree. Not only pay is better, even you rise the corporate ladder very fast and you get a good opportunity to take a decision for the betterment of people and the company.
After you have taken admission in Bsc Course, it would be a good decision if you start preparing for CAT after your first semester itself. It`s always better to start your preparation as early as possible.
Common Entrance Test (CAT) is the exam conducted by the Indian Institute of Management for admission to it's a Master of Business administration (MBA) course.

Prepare for Government Exam
There are a number of Government exam such as SSC, IBPS Bank PO Exam, SBI, FCI, RRB insurance exam, etc which take place around the year and a lot of students give competitive exams which make these exams very competitive but still you can crack these exams if you start preparing for these exams well early in your graduation itself.
Thumb rule of cracking any exam is to focus and start preparing for an exam well in advance.
Tips and Tricks for Preparing Government Exam
- For the government exam as well you can start your preparation in your graduation days itself.
- I will recommend you take coaching if you are living in cities. If you are in town /village area you can take help from online apps like Unacademy and also YouTube. There is a lot of good channels for government exam preparation you can definitely make good use of these channels.
- Most of the government exams have an almost similar syllabus. For the QA section, the syllabus is almost common in every exam so you can start learning the QA concept and practice a lot of questions on various exams.
- For the English section as well, learning Vocabulary is essential as it is useful for the Reading Comprehension section as well as synonyms/antonyms questions are also asked separately.
- In the General Knowledge section, you can read the complete static section in your graduation days itself. The topic in the static portion of General Knowledge does not change with time. You can get a good hold over questions in this section.
- Reasoning section difficulty varies from exam to the exam so it is suggested that you should solve and practice hard questions so that easy ones are automatically covered. Usually, in the bank / Insurance exam, the reasoning section has a tough question while in SSC exam question is relatively easy.
- Take a good Test series for the exam which you want to appear in the future. Practicing test series helps us to find our mistake at a very early stage so that we get enough time to improve upon it.
Best Books for Preparing Government Exam
Do not fall into the trap to read many books instead of reading a few good books. Focus more on the revision of a few things read through a limited set of resources.
Bank / Insurance
SSC
Prepare for Army
After your BSc degree, You can give Combined Defence Services (CDS) Exam to get into the Army. CDS Exam is conducted by UPSC. It is conducted twice a year. Written Test is followed by SSB at various locations in India.

Do the Bachelors of Education – Become Government/Private School Teacher
The teacher is the most respected Job and nowadays well paid too. You can become a teacher after completing a BEd degree as it is a prerequisite. You can do a Bed from any government university in your state. In most States now there is an entrance exam for Bed admission to a state university.
If you want to stay near to your hometown and work as a teacher doing Bed after your BSc degree is a good option. Pay is also good for teachers in Government and Private schools.
