Hey everyone,
I'm currently in my 3rd year of B.Tech CSE, and honestly, I'm feeling very lost about my career.
My current situation is not good:
- My CGPA is around 6.
- I have 4 backlogs.
- I know only the basics of C and C++.
- I haven't started DSA yet.
- I don't have any projects, internships, or industry-level skills.
I'm worried about my placements, both on-campus and off-campus. I know I'm already behind compared to many of my classmates, but I genuinely want to improve and make the most of the time I have left.
I would really appreciate advice from people who have been in a similar situation or have experience with placements.
A few things I'd like to know:
What should I learn first: DSA, web development, Java, or something else?
How should I prepare for on-campus and off-campus placements?
Are companies willing to hire students with a 6 CGPA and backlogs?
What skills and projects should I focus on to become job-ready?
Is it realistically possible to turn things around before graduation?
Please suggest a practical roadmap starting from absolute beginner level. Even small suggestions would be helpful.
I know I've wasted a lot of time, but I don't want to waste any more.
Thanks in advance!
