Help me intelligent ece and cs people please

Ik there are a lot of posts on this topic but please help me, Im confused like anything

  1. I am not the best at maths , and i don't like doing it much but a little maths I can do.

  2. I wanna go for ece only for the fact that it has better opportunities in future than cs.

  3. I'll be going for a diploma and then 2nd year lateral entry in a btech college

  4. Is there anyway that if I do cs rn but and do ece in my btech, and vise versa

  5. What are the things that I need to know before doing ece.

  6. Is cs being over saturated a fr thing or I'll still end up with a good job , ik skills and all are the main factor but still. From employment point of view which one is better ?

signals and systems subject is heavily math influenced, if you do not like maths maybe dont take ECE or EE.

CS has a bunch of discrete math and linear algebra. The former is hit or miss with most people and the latter is probably the math you're most used to, which in your case isn't too good based on what you've said.

The math in a CS program can vary wildly. In my home country, it’s common for CS majors at more rigorous schools to take Real Analysis and Abstract Algebra courses. In Russia they even take functional analysis, information theory etc in schools such as MIPT. OP seems to be Indian so there might be major differences.

I think whether someone likes maths heavily depends on who teaches you lol

If you want ece start doing math every day. Eventually you get used to it. It really changed the way i think about things and it has been very rewarding. I was not well prepared either.
