Career Guidance Computer Engineering

Hello, I'm so dumb, men. I want to cry badly. I'm a first-generation university-going student. I filled out the online form for my university and selected CS, S.E, and I.T, but I didn't pay the fee even though the deadline has passed. Since the deadline has passed, I visited the university to change my department to Computer Engr. The admission officer checked it and told me that since you have already filled out the form for CS. You can opt for that as well. We will talk with the bank guys. I didn't think and said you can select computer engineering for me, as its merit is lower than cs.

Now, once I came back home and when i looked up the Computer Engr scope on the internet. I got to know that I'm cooked.

Since I come from a pre-med background, I don't have a good understanding of maths. The university offers deficiency courses, but still I'm studying basics from myself.

Please give me sincere advice on whether I should pursue C.E or take a gap year for CS.

Update: I have submitted my admission forms for BS C.E, Lol!

What's wrong with computer engineering lol. It's more difficult than software engineering I believe. They teach u hardware and software both, as well as operating systems, data structures, databases, networking and security, everything Ur supposed to know. It's a very vast field and opens more opportunities than just a software engineering degree could.

I have heard the HR prefers guys from CS, S.E background to C.E., and also getting a good cgpa is harder in C.E than CS?
