The meaning of "streams"
Hello,Everyone
I feel confused about the meaning of “streams”in the following sentence:
Map out your needs for qualifications: The goal also helps point out the essential qualifications and can drastically simplify and clarify your choices of academic streams and course subject.
Thanks in advance :D

Chiefly British: A course of study to which students are tracked.
The "stream" is used here firstly for not to say the "course" twice, and secondly it bears a bit more global meaning.

academic streams > the path you want to take academically .
After my exams , I will choose to enter the science stream , not art stream .
The course subjects I want to take then will be physics , chemistry and additional mathematics
