OK here is my situation. I am currently in First year Engineering(Computer stream). Actually I should be in Second year but I got a drop and now waiting for my results which I gave this May. Now two situation rises one is that I fail again ( Ya that is a possibility because exams didn't went well)
Other is I pass. Now if I pass I am gonna continue my engineering. Period. But if i fail I am gonna leave engineering and do Bsc IT or BCA. But my actual question is can I do some Master or PhD in Astronomy( is that a thing and possible here in india) in both conditions? My first option was actually to pursue Astronomy after 12 but thought it wasn't possible so took computer field( yes I like this field too) but just now became curios if can I do pursue and how? Please help
