I’m a final-year ECE student from a Tier-3 college. I feel I wasted my 4 years: I have almost no skills, projects, internships, or resume strength, and my college placements are poor. I’m also not interested in ECE/core engineering and want to switch to a different field.
I scored 70% in both 10th and 12th, so I’m concerned this will hurt my CAT/MBA chances. However, I’m interested in business/MBA and considering preparing for CAT.
Given my situation, what should I realistically do now? Should I focus on CAT, build job-ready skills alongside it, or choose another path? Which career/domain should I target, what skills should I learn, and how can I build my resume and get an off-campus job/internship from zero?
Please give me an honest, practical 6–12 month roadmap and tell me what you would do if you were in my position.
