Students fail in choosing the professional subjects. There are many courses which are as good as Science and Commerce. Students lag behind in choosing trending courses like Journalism, Psychology, Jewellery Designing etc. They prefer old subjects like Political Science, History etc. There are very good career opportunities in Arts like many institutions appoint counselors, and hence Psychology is a good subject and also Journalism as many students from Science background too come forward to be the part of media today.
English literature has great demand all over the world. It has maximum demand, apart from teaching, there are many job opportunities for English specialists. Many advertising companies appoint English students as content writer, PROs etc.
