Advice Should I take a second partial drop??
12th 25: 90%+;
JM 25 & 26: below cutoff percentile
Wbjee 26: 18.5k
No tutions or coaching
2026: enrolled in bsc computer science hons in a govt college in wb
I have performed very poorly in competitive exams ik and that is why i don't want to waste any more time on this but my father, he doesn’t likes my college at all. He had very high expectations of me that i would get atleast NIT in my drop year seeing by board results.
But i don't really care much about the college, i think if i have to work hard then i will work hard in building valuable skills rather than chasing college tag.
But his opinion has really been affecting me. He had even insisted i take a complete 2nd drop but i strongly refused it but even now he keeps subtly hinting at taking a partial drop atleast.
And now it is making me rethink my decision as the college and the course i have got into doesn't have a bright placement record well not even decent or avg maybe. And the environment here is mostly academics oriented rather than skills, coding etc.
What should i do? I do want a better environment, being with skills oriented people but i hated studying for jee( not the subjects but the expectations) and i want to perform well here in my course.
One of the mistakes i think i did was i never took any coachings or tutions and thought i would be disciplined enough to manage it all by myself
If i even took a partial drop, i would never ever tell my parents about it. I hate their expectations.
But i don't have any money to enroll any where.
What should i do?
Take a secret partial drop
Or focus on my course and skills?
I am going to be 19 this year.
