Choosing a stream after Grade 10
Science, Commerce and Humanities each keep different doors open. Choose on evidence, not on what classmates are picking.
- List the subjects you enjoy and the ones you do well in. Where they overlap is your strongest starting point.
- Work backwards from two or three careers that interest you and note which subjects they need in Grades 11 and 12.
- Check what each stream keeps open. Mathematics, for example, is required for many engineering, economics and data courses.
- Talk it through with a teacher who knows your work, and with your parents, before the school deadline.
