{{/usCountry}}According to the experts, one reason for the decrease in the graph of the success of Science students is that most students blindly register for it believing it to have better career prospects without actually analysing their interest and aptitude for the subjects. Due to being a difficult stream, the number of students who fail in the exams in this stream remains high.
