Rohan Mehta

Rohan Mehta presents a compelling aptitude profile anchored by strong spatial reasoning (84), numeric ability (77), and speed-accuracy (81). These scores, combined with a dominant Realistic-Enterprising-Social (RES) RIASEC orientation, suggest a natural inclination toward hands-on, goal-directed work that involves tangible problem-solving and leadership. His relatively lower verbal and abstract scores indicate he is likely to thrive in structured, visually and quantitatively driven environments rather than language-heavy or purely conceptual roles.

The career match analysis places Chartered Accountant (fit: 70), Armed Forces Officer (fit: 64), and Civil Engineer (fit: 64) as Rohan's top three aligned pathways. His high spatial and numeric aptitude makes Civil Engineering a particularly strong fit, as the profession demands precisely these capabilities. The Armed Forces pathway resonates with his Enterprising and Realistic tendencies, offering structured leadership with applied problem-solving. Chartered Accountancy scores highest on match fit, though it leans more heavily on numeric discipline than on his spatial strengths.

A key tension surfaced during Rohan's recent counselling session: stream selection between Science and Commerce emerged as a sticking point ^[1]. The counsellor applied the 'three-test' framework of interest, aptitude, and market demand to help him evaluate his options ^[1]. Given that both Civil Engineering and Armed Forces strongly favour a Science stream, and that even the CA pathway can be pursued after Science, the evidence points toward Science as the more versatile and aptitude-aligned choice for Rohan at this stage.

Recommended next step: Proceed with the shadow-day arranged at the partner firm, as planned in the previous session, to give Rohan a ground-level experience of an engineering or design environment before his stream selection deadline ^[1].
