Which Course is Better for Commerce Stream?

If you live in India, you must have definitely heard something like those who aren't good in math opt for commerce' or commerce is for those who want to enjoy' or the most common one there are not many opportunities in commerce', but believe me it can't be farther from the truth. Commerce is an amazing stream just like science or humanities with vast career opportunities, but many students misunderstand it due to wrong conceptions.

There are a lot of courses which you can opt for after commerce stream such as Bachelors of Commerce (B.com), Bachelors of Commerce (B.com Hons), Bachelors in Economics, Bachelors of Business Administration (B.B.A), Chartered Accountancy (CA), etc., but most of these courses are 3 year course or more. They are all good courses to consider but the problem with these courses is that they don't focus on practical skills and employability skills. But if you are one of those students who doesn't want to enroll in such a course and want to enroll in a course that focuses on practical skills and better job employment in a short time, then you should consider diploma courses.
