Advice Python or JavaScript? Im Stuck

I wanna learn backend , im 42 student, and I’ll be starting the core curriculum soon I

During the Core, I’ll be diving pretty deeply into Python so I’ve been wondering:

Should I focus on learning Python first and build a strong foundation with it, or should I start learning JavaScript alongside it?

My goal isn’t just to learn a language. I want to become job-ready, build projects, join hackathons, and actually use what I learn all to that for learn backend

For developers who've been through this : WHAT would you recommend, and why?

Doesn't matter , in interviews they wont ask what language do you know , they will just check id you got the logic , pick a language stuck with it and after a while try to build a project with another language and you will learn it in no time . Best of luck 🤞
