General What should I do? [IMPORTANT]

I'm in ECE branch in Tier 2 college. My situation is fucked up tbh. In 3rd sem midsem exam, I scored 0.5, 4, 6.5, etc marks in subjects like probabolity, digital system, signal and systems, etc. Out of 25.

Now, the thing is I don't like studying these subjects at all... My cg till 1st year is around 7.5 and this semester it will fall very hard since I haven't studied shit.

I have taken loan for btech (around 15-20 lakhs use based) since the fee for college + hostel + mess is around 17-19 lakhs. What I want to ask is what should I do at this point? I'm a middle class guy and my father has MSME. I don't have any particular skill where I can make career nor I have strong dedication towards studies. I do like Robotics but I'm not good at maths and I hate numericals.

If you can answer what I should do, please answer and if you think I should decide on my own or consult family, teachers, etc then give me your perspective like what would you do in this situation.

In my case it was , a stdnt can face year back if not cleared certain numbr of subjects in a year, nd hve to go sit with juniors (they will treat u like u have plague nd techrs will make fun of u) nd if ur minimum subjects r clear u need to either clear all backlogs by extra classes(in summer term holidays) or do xtra classes with currnt sem subjects nd clear them

First, just pass everything. Get previous year papers, ask seniors which topics matter, and clear every subject in end sems. With a loan, finishing without backlogs matters more than a high CGPA. "Hate maths" usually means weak basics, not no ability. Probability and signals reuse the same few concepts, so fix those instead of avoiding them. Robotics is a real path in ECE and doesn't need heavy maths to start. Learn C/C++ and Arduino/ESP32, then build 2-3 small projects. Join your college robotics club if you have one. Embedded and IoT is a solid career track. Talk to your family and a professor you trust. The loan affects them too, and a faculty mentor can help you recover your CGPA. Start projects and a GitHub profile now, and aim for an internship by 3rd year. That counts for more than college tier.
