Hi, Though legally speaking, we can pursue engineering, however most of the institutes in India even today deny admission. There are several complecations. The examining authorities do not provide appropriate and reasonable accommodations. I myself have taken Science and am fighting it out with the examining bodies for accommodations. But as all of us know insensitivity and lack of awareness is something that all of us face, and so is in this case. But as Rajesh Sir pointed out, with sincerity and determination, one can surely take up this challenge.
BTW, as I pointed out earlier too, the IITs have allowed reasonable accommodations which include the following: 1. Exemption from figures 2. Facility of scribe (though no details regarding eligibility conditions etc. have been stipulated) The AIEEE unfortunately has laid down restrictive conditions, which are as mentioned: The scribe will be provided by the centre superintendent and the candidate will not be allowed to bring in his own scribe. Further, the scribe will be of class XI (i.e. two educational classes lower than the candidate), and that too should be studying Humanities or Commerce without Mathematics. Now, what is to be noted is that Science is very technical and involves several symbols, which a person having no familiarity with Science will be unable to even read out to the candidate. The AIEEE has also not provided alternate questions to the candidate, giving the excuse that AIEEE is a competitive exam. So basically, there are challenges and problems, but if you are someone who is determined, then you should not shy away from taking up Science or engineering.
