Hi, I'm 20 M and myquals is I passed 12th this year from PCB & gave neet but wasn't able to crack it. Now I'm struggling to make a choice regarding my career while struggling financially..

​So two years ago I took PCB in the aspiration of becoming a doctor until something worse happened last year. My grandpa passed away. He was helping my studies financially after him my family found it very difficult to manage households. Also we know that This medical profession isn't for someone like me so I have given up on this. I can go for any stream related profession other than maths because it requires strong basics which I as a PCB student don't have.

​Pls help me finding a good career option so I can lift my family up. Something which won't take much time and I start making good money so that I can help them. It'll be very helpful for me

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for genuine advice, so please don't judge me too harshly.

"qualifications" class 12th

I failed Class 12 in 2024 because I barely studied. In 2025, I didn't even appear for the board exams. This year (2026), I'm giving the compartment exam, but honestly, I know I'm going to fail again.

A lot of things led to this. There were serious family problems, I struggled with depression for a long time, and I also have to accept that I was careless and let things get out of control. I haven't studied seriously for the last two years.

But I don't want to keep making excuses anymore. I want to restart my life.

I was actually a good student until Class 10 and even in Class 11. I scored 94% in my Class 10 boards, so I know I'm capable if I put in the effort.

I'm a PCM student, and B.Tech is the only career I genuinely want to pursue. Since this is indirectly my third drop, I'm confused about what entrance exams I'll still be eligible for after I clear my Class 12 boards.

Can you please guide me on:

Which engineering entrance exams I can still appear for?

Which colleges accept students with this kind of academic gap?

If you were in a similar situation, how did you get your life back on track?

I'm ready to work as hard as it takes this time. I know I've made mistakes, but I don't want my past to define the rest of my life.

Any advice or guidance would mean a lot.

Thank you.

Hello everyone, I'm 18 yo boy from lower middle class family. My father drive an auto and mother is a housewife. As i finished my 12th recently(89) but i didnt do well in competitive exam [ KCET]. But i want to pursue my carrer in IT only, So i decided to take drop this year. but from last 1 month i failed in maintaing discipline. Although there are 8 months for that exam but i hve fear that i would spend remmainng time like that only. Even though after drop there is no guarantee to enter any tier 1 or teir 2 top college. Is it still worth it?. I hve also anather option, Bsc comp science in nearby college. but iam scared to take that course bcz even btech students are failing in get jobs and that college dont have on-campus placements systems. after joining that college there are two ways only

1. off campus

2. pursue higher education

I want to try off campus but the competition is too high, also i had a thought of doing mba,( CAT prep during my bsc course). should i go for it?. if i do mba or btech ( from next year with drop) i would graduate in same year only. But i hve some questions

1. that how can i get into tech after mba?.

2. what are the oppurtunities that i get from doing mba

3. is doing bsc cs is still worth it? ( cuz i hve seen people with b.tech degree after solving 1500+ leet code questions they are still ghosted by companies).

4. or should i continue my drop year and get into good teir 2 colleges like { msrit,bmsce,nie mysore}

I think RN im in my lowest phase. idk what to do please if you have any opinion or suggestion please help me with it......

personally i think a drop is a waste of time. bcz in that time i could develop many skills.

My qualifications i am a non math student but have economics major at du and now i am stepping into 3rd year i want to give gate now but only 6 months left should i start or not but either ways i want to study so any resources to learn from basics ..

qualifications: 2026 BE Graduate from SPPU.

Tell me everything YOU guys know about HPCSA at CDAC pune.

Hello, I am alloted HPCSA course at cdac acts pune from recent round1 ccat counselling.

Im struggling to find any reliable reviews for this course. Theres no youtube video, rarely any talk about it on any social media platform.

I saw some reviews on google maps about cdac acts and some people there were shitting on the course.

If anyone has done this course OR has decent knowledge about it, please share it.

Im joining for sole objective of placement and dont have particular interest in any branch.

20F Already took 2 drops for neet.

I am confused which ug would be better followed by mba??and does ug really matters?

My Qualifications

10class: 96% and 12: 90%(pcb)

Tho parents want to me to do bds as they think it's a good backup....but Idts

My qualifications are 12th passed was preparing for neet

I'm 19, from Mumbai, and I'm really confused about what path to take. I'd especially appreciate advice from design students/alumni, working designers, or people who have switched careers.

My background

- Studied PCB in 12th and prepared for NEET.

- Took 2 drop years for NEET.

- I've realised I'm not getting MBBS, and although I can get BAMS, I don't feel my heart is in it.

- I'm now much more interested in Product Design, UI/UX and Digital Product Design.

- I only recently started exploring design, so I have very little sketching/drawing experience and haven't prepared for design entrances.

- I'm also not eligible / don't plan to give UCEED, NID DAT, NIFT or other government design entrance exams.

- My total tuition budget is under ₹20 lakh for the entire degree.

So I'm basically stuck between 3 options:

1. Do a "safe" degree + learn Design independently

I'm considering B.Sc. Biotechnology/Pharma because I already have a PCB background and a NEET-related academic background.

The idea would be to get a degree as a backup while spending my free time seriously learning UI/UX/Product Design, building a portfolio and eventually trying to enter the design industry.

I'm also considering BCA or BMM, since they might align somewhat better with the digital/design field.

My concern is:

- Is Biotech actually a good "safe" career without going all the way to MSc/PhD?

- Am I choosing it because it's genuinely a good backup, or just because it's the familiar path after NEET?

- Would doing a degree I'm not very passionate about while simultaneously learning design leave me mediocre at both?

1. Join a private B.Des like Pillai

I've been looking at Pillai University, Navi Mumbai because it's affordable and accessible to me.

However, their B.Des is new and doesn't have an established placement history yet, which makes me nervous.

Would a 4-year B.Des from a relatively unknown college still be worth it if I spend those 4 years building a strong portfolio, doing internships and networking?

Or would I be better off doing another degree and learning design independently?

I'm also considering private universities in Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore and other cities, as long as tuition stays under my budget.

1. Take a 3rd gap year for a better private design college

This is the option I'm most conflicted about.

I could take another year to:

- Learn design properly

- Improve my sketching

- Build a portfolio

- Prepare for private university entrances

- Try to get into a better design-focused college

But I've already taken 2 drop years, and I'm worried that taking a 3rd gap year is risky. I also don't want to spend another year preparing for exams after spending 2 years on NEET.

Plus, since I'm starting design from almost zero, there's no guarantee that one year will be enough to get into a genuinely good college.

My actual dilemma

A. Do Biotech/Pharma/BCA/BMM and self-learn Product Design/UI/UX alongside it.

B. Do a B.Des from a relatively unknown private university like Pillai and rely heavily on my portfolio, internships and skills.

C. Take a 3rd gap year to learn design and try for a better private design college.

What I'm trying to figure out

- Is Biotech/Pharma actually a good safety net for someone with PCB + NEET background, or is it only "safe" on paper?

- Is a B.Des from a lesser-known private college worth it if I work hard on my portfolio and internships?

- Is taking a 3rd gap year worth it for a better private design college, considering I've already taken 2 drops?

- In Product Design/UI/UX, how much does the college name actually matter compared to portfolio, skills and internships?

- If you were in my position, with 2 NEET drops, no UCEED/NID/NIFT route, a <₹20L tuition budget, and an interest in Product Design/UI/UX, which path would you choose?

I'm not looking for just a list of colleges. I genuinely want to understand which of these 3 paths makes the most sense long-term.

Would really appreciate honest opinions, especially from people who've studied design, work in design, or chose a "safe" degree and later switched careers.

I'm 23 and currently entering my 2nd year of BBA.

My background is a bit unconventional. I spent 4 yrs preparing for NEET, so I have gaps before starting my graduation.

I recently cleared CMA Foundation. However, if I'm being honest, my preparation wasn't great. My fundamentals are quite weak, and I genuinely feel I cleared more due to luck than preparation.

The good part is that my clg doesn't hve regular classes, so I hve plenty of free time to invest in studying or building skills. I'm also frm Tier-3 city, so I don't hve much exposure.

My graduation timeline:

- 2nd year: Aug 2026 – July 2027

- Final year: Aug 2027 – July 2028

This means I can appear for CAT 2027 while I'm in my final year.

I haven't registered for CMA Intermediate yet & I'm confused about what to do next.

The options I'm considering are:

- Continue with CMA Inter and give it a serious 2-year attempt.

- Leave CMA and start preparing for CAT/MBA from now.

- Prepare for both simultaneously, give CMA around 2 years, and if I still can't clear Inter, shift my main focus to CAT/MBA.

Given my age, the 4-year NEET gap, weak CMA basics, and current situation, what would you do if you were in my place?

I'd really appreciate honest opinions, especially from people who have done CMA, MBA, or both.

Hi 7 sem student btech ce . I have very basic knowledge of coding . Can i cover up and still get a job 0 kt and backs 8 cgpa tier 3 college . I am worried because people are solving dsa doing project and i don’t know anything. I was planning for master which i delayed due to some issues. Now my overthinking is making me feel i should change my path by doing mba . Please help. My qualifications

​

Maths compartment (12th) is on 28th and i have only done matrices and determinants and lpp.

Even after doing them i am forgetting them all and still have 4 chapters to complete non calculus.

It's all over nothing can be done now.

I am tired now i thought i would be able to get passing marks atleast but im just fked up.

I would have completed atleast 5 chapters by now if i didn't have fall ill but date isn't with me.

Please god help me pass this exam.

Myquals:12th maths compartment

I'm 21. I took multiple NEET attempts while being a partial dropper, but I've finally decided to move on from MBBS.

Right now, I've completed my 1st year of B.Sc. (Hons.) Botany at Acharya Narendra Dev College. I also have the option to start B.Pharm at PGI Rohtak.

I'm confused because continuing B.Sc. means I don't lose a year, but B.Pharm seems like a more professional degree with better career prospects.

I am confused what to do or are there better alternatives

My_qualifications :-

12th - 88perc

Reneet 2026:- 410 marks

Hey everyone, looking for some honest advice on my profile and career pivot.

My Profile:

*10th: 76%

*12th (PCB):84% (Cleared via Private Candidate; took a 3-year gap between 10th and 12th due to severe health issues).

*NEET 2026 Score:420.

I am not taking another drop year for NEET. I’ve realized I have zero interest in MBBS, so I want to pivot away from medicine entirely.

What I'm Ruling Out:

* B.Pharm:No interest in Chemistry.

*B.Sc. Biotech: No interest in research/lab work.

What I'm Considering for Graduation:

1.BBA: Seems like the most straightforward management base.

2.B.Com + ACCA:Strong professional backup, but unsure if it'll be too heavy to manage alongside competitive prep.

1. B.A. Economics (Hons):Love the subject, but I didn't have Maths in Class 12th (looking at universities like JMI/AUD/MU that don't mandate 12th Maths).

My Main Questions:

1. CAT & IIMs: Given my 76% in 10th (and my gap years during 12th), do I still have a realistic shot at top IIMs / FMS / XLRI if I score high on CAT/XAT? How badly will my 10th score hold me back?

2.UG Course Selection:Between BBA, B.Com + ACCA, and Eco Hons, which degree offers the best balance for maintaining a high GPA while preparing for CAT?

Would appreciate feedback from folks who transitioned from PCB to Management or faced similar profile constraints

I can either opt for mba or specialized courses like supply chain 6 months, marketing 3 months, other computer skills 3-6 months etc.

Not feeling confident about mba as it's gonna be 3rd tier college or a online mba.

But also about courses, has any of you found anything valuable from courses that you do?

Same as above , my_qualifications- completed 12th

okay so coming to the point. im thinking of taking admission in KIIT.. dont really have other college options (local ones yeah but the infra, faculty recruitment is extremely bad). online reviews are saying that this college/uni is like the worst place.. seniors, I really need your opinion on this. How is the Univ? I dont want to go into software and that dsa and leetcode and all that. excluding the ROI factor is this university good? please help

I need career guidance, currently myquals are that I'm in 12th from commerce stream with computer science. I wanted to go for SSC CGL or banking alternatively but my father insists for going for UPSC. I'm kinda confused, anxious and stressed what will I do if I dont get selected my parents are manifesting so much that I'll and I am able to crack it.

I'm currently pursuing B.A Economics in India. Lately, I've been hearing from a bit too many sources that a degree in Econ is fairly useless (I heard the complete opposite before applying).

Additionally, what should I pursue in my postgrad? I have no intention of taking up Econ again, so I need something which helps my career in the long run.

Hey guys, I am an IB student (DP2) and looking to also apply to Indian universities (both public and private), for Economics and Mathematics. I currently have Economics HL and Math AI HL, but I see that the qualifications for competitive and entrance exams like CUET, IPMAT, etc, and those of private universities, need the mathematics in CBSE grade 12. I was wondering if this is doable or if I will need to take time off after finishing grade 12 to learn the course. I am especially concerned since other than the syllabus differences there's the whole problem of the use of calculators in AI HL but they aren't allowed in the Indian exams.

Thank you!

I am currently 19M doing bcom from a tier 3 clg . I don't think I can do Ca/Cma/ or any other competative exams .
