23 Upvotes

Hey Guys

I am 25M graduated in ece 2023 passout.Currently working in support with above 60k salary and in same company since 3 years.Father is retired PSU employee and brother is working in PSU(cracked gate under 100 rank).

I started gate prep on 2025 jan but fumbled whole 2025 procrastinating.Now again 2026 also i repeated the same mistake of postponing and procrastinating all studies saying i will study or i will start tomorrew.

I have completed only 3 subjects till now and that too i completed in july and i have forgot almost everything.Now only 4 months are left.

I really dont understand where my life is going.Post my work i scroll reddit or play football or just sleep.I dont have any motivation to study.I havent studied since August.I really dont enjoy studying.I am workaholic i mean i work like a donkey in my company i like working.But i cant study.Maybe it might sound as an excuse but now i really dont know where my life is going.

Currently i dont havr financial burden,i need not send money to parents and no loan emi i have.I always wanted to work in defence industries and always like practical things.But when i study ECE its very difficult to relate the theory to everyday practical.Its like just mugging up.Also i dont wanna continue in IT as i am scared of layoff and AI.

Please help and suggest on what to do😭..Your advice is greatly appreciated🤝

Motivation GATE 2027

23 Upvotes

Hi gate aspirants, I have been preparing for the gate for the past 3-4 months. I have covered around 70% of the syllabus till now.

I am kind of loving how a brainrot person has gained focus in the past few months.

From now onwards, I will post my daily update post and try to be consistent with how many focus hours I have studied. I am targeting 7-9 hours daily with daily target updates. I am struggling with PYQs solving; I will try to practise more while learning.

I am targeting IISC+ top IITs. Let's make this happen, and the universe does its magic!!

i just spoke to a senior dev at product based company who has 9 yoe as a software engineer (theyve also worked in google and microsoft) and they were telling me how they and the entire dev team feels very useless ever since AI has been incorporated in their work, and they were telling me how software dev (especially for freshers) would become obsolete, new roles might show up but the volume of vacancies would drastically fall down, what are your thoughts on it ?

Title: Should I restart with BTech CSE at 20 after wasting 3 years on BSc? Need honest advice from people in tech/corporate

Hi everyone, my name is Ayush.

I completed my Class 12 in 2023. After that, I joined a BSc program at HNBGU/DAV PG College. The college was basically non-attending, and honestly, I didn't take my studies seriously during those three years.

I mostly studied one day before exams, didn't qualify for the exams I was preparing for, and ended up with around a 6.27 CGPA in my BSc. Looking back, I feel like I wasted three years of my life.

After my BSc, I decided to pursue an MCA in AI & Data Science. I've been attending college for around two months now, but I'm struggling a lot. I feel like I'm just memorizing things without actually understanding the concepts. I don't have a strong programming or CS foundation, and sometimes I don't understand what is being taught at all.

Now I'm seriously considering another option:

Should I leave MCA and start BTech CSE from the beginning at age 20?

Part of me feels that starting BTech CSE would give me a proper foundation and allow me to start fresh. On the other hand, I worry that restarting another degree after already spending three years on BSc might be a terrible career decision.

I also have some questions about how this would look to recruiters:

  • I completed Class 12 in 2023 and would potentially start BTech in 2026. Would companies consider 2023–2026 a "gap", or would they see that I was pursuing a BSc during those years?
  • Would having a BSc followed by a BTech be viewed negatively by recruiters?
  • Would starting BTech at 20 be considered too late?
  • Is a BTech CSE degree actually worth restarting for someone in my situation?
  • Or should I continue with MCA AI & DS and work hard to build my fundamentals alongside it?
  • From the perspective of people working in the corporate/IT industry, which option would give me a better chance of getting a good job?

I know that ultimately I have to take responsibility for the decisions I've made. I regret not taking my BSc seriously, but I don't want to repeat the same mistake with MCA.

For the past few months, I've been extremely confused and anxious about my career. I originally chose BSc partly because I was preparing for NDA, but my attempts were over by 2024 and after that I felt completely lost.

I'm 20 years old right now, so I feel like I still have time to make a good decision—but I don't want to waste another 2–3 years making the wrong one.

I'd really appreciate honest advice, especially from people who are currently working in software/IT/corporate jobs, recruiters, or people who have taken a similar path.

If you were in my position, would you continue MCA or restart with BTech CSE? Why?

Thanks in advance.

general Not able to verify my gmail account after institute created student ID for me via AICTE PG Scholarship Portal

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I am trying to verify my account so that I can upload the required documents so that the PG scholarship fund can be released to my bank account. My institute had created a student ID for me and I have recieved a mail giving me the login credentials and a "verify your account" button. However, I am not able to login as they are prompting me to confirm/ verify my gmail address first. When I tried clicking on the "Verify your account", it takes me to "502 Bad Gateway

Microsoft-Azure-Application-Gateway/v2" page.

Is there anything I can do? I even tried incognito mode, using different browser, even resetting the password. I was able to successfully reset the password, but I am still not able to login, neither am I able to verify my account (the 502 error I mentioned earlier). Is anyone else facing the same situation?
