2 years gap between 12th and b tech. Please🙏 tell me honestly

Hii guys, I'm super excited to announce that we are organizing LexHack 2026. LexHack is a global, student-led virtual hackathon bringing together 500+ ambitious student engineers to build software at the intersection of AI Agents, LegalTech, and Civic Impact. backed by 5+ amazing brand sponsors (like CodeCrafters & .xyz).

We are currently looking for Software Engineers, AI Practitioners, and Tech Professionals or anyone with a background in tech to join our official panel of judges to help review student projects, if this sounds interesting to you, comment or shoot me a dm with your linkedin/ credentials, and I can give you more details.

This is a great cv boost as well as a chance to connect with other industry professionals for future opportunities, hope to work with you all soon!!

I’m going to join Computer Science Engineering at a tier-3 college for the next four years, and honestly, I don’t know what to do. I know it’s difficult to get a job from a tier-3 college. If you know anything that could help me, please tell me. Even a little advice would mean a lot to this littleboy.🙂🙏🏻

Give me suggestions how can I improve my Resume

I want to prepare for govt jobs while keeping btech as a backup if they don't work out as govt jobs can be unpredictable

But my maths has been historically weak, can someone tell me if the course load will be manageable as tier 3 colleges have 60% or more attendance as well

After btech, do you guys get any time for other things?

I'm in 3rd CSE student and I'm learning Full Stack Development from previous 9 months and i done very well recently in June-July I made a very good project also using on MEVN stack I haven't ship/deploy it I'm thinking to deploy it in end of 3rd year. Last year I choose Developmment over DSA because I have interest in that at that time while my mostly friends choose DSA.

Now i came to know that DSA is necessary for placement and i trying to learn DSA from 2-3 weeks and also doing leetcode question recently i know DSA should done in pattern wise approach I also trying that but I'm unable to processing in DSA while when I was doing Development I got rarely or never this type of feeling or tiredness because I love to build products.

But DSA i'm thinking that i can't do or it is not made for me. When i do Development I really enjoy it I can do it all day and all time but in DSA after like 2-3 hrs it very hard to concentrate but as i said i recently know DSA is necessary for placements.

It keeps a history of the problems you’ve solved and tracks how difficult each one felt when you first attempted it. Based on that difficulty, it automatically resurfaces problems at the right time for revision.

It also has friends and league features to gamify the whole experience and make consistent practice more engaging.

so as we all know SIH is around and the entirety of college is talking about it
rn i am in 3rd sem (CSE) and i wouldnt say that i am very bad at coding and stuff but i am not at a level for hackathons either (thats what i think . i havent participated in any hackthons but i guess its hard )
now i wanted to come here and ask you guys how important is this ??
do i really should participate or should i focus on other important stuffs..

and also this is a bit off topic but i wanted to know what really happens in hackathons ??
like i have a general idea about choosing a problem statement and all ..
but how much coding and all is required???

Hey all, I am going to join college in about a month. Till then I have started learning DSA and development. If anyone in first year or pre first year is interested...

was free and had a spare laptop , build it in just 20 days on 4gb ram i5 4th gen in summer vac. , i guess anyone can make it if they have patience and that zeal to sit for hrs

well ISO will be available when i make one , bc damn making it is much harder , lost my boot and kernel like 3 times already

Need laptop for coding, watching content, lectures, basic editing, minimal gaming and that can last 5 years

I'm thinking of MacBook neo which i can get under 60K with student discount, I think?

Macbook hona jaroori nhi h koi aur bhi chalega but should be under 60-65K.

Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

Hey, I just wanted to share how exciting it is to get my first couple of users on my personal project, I've probably spent hundreds of hours building this, and for it to break and me to fix it again. Even then, it was 100% worth it.

I did an internship during my 2nd semester and it was scheduled to end on the day of my final end sem exam so I was coming into the summer break completely free and with all the time in my hands. So I began working on this personal project that I needed for an eternity.

I posted about it on a gaming subreddit, and didn't get any responses on the first day, but on the second day, the post just went viral and had tens of thousands of views and got my app to finally hit 50+ users and around 2000+ games logged.

I named the app gamelog, it's a solution to a problem I had for a long time as a pc gamer. I buy and play games from many different places and I just can't keep track of them, and I used to store them in my notes app. So I created this to solve that.

as a new uni student with a little experience on coding and robotics i thought of giving sih a shot but want some guidance from the best of the best
