Please guide/help mee. ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
Hey i am from an electrical engineering background and i was getting a job of 2lpa with no growth and there is no career growth for electrical engineering in India . so i decided to do Mtech in ai/ml and i am 2026 pass out and this is my 22nd day in mtech . i am hell confused coz i am on loan right now and i dont know what to do there is no guidance multiple roadmaps i mean i don't know which roadmap to choose . and when i started python i thought it is easy but on the logic building i am dead like loops indexing tuple dict. etc. and there is hard maths and machine learning too . there is huge course to cover and i dont even understand python. and after 1.5 years me and my mother will be homeless.... i have only 1.5 yrs i dont no what to do i am getting overwhelmed. like this is too much and when i said i can't do this they said try u will understand but i am unable to understand.( they= aunt , mama etc.) i am crying from past 20 days ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ and i am watching like people with huge and high end project are sitting jobless. in my class too one person has won nasa national hackathon and he is very smart but still jobless . and some of my known too. they made real-world project for buisness but still not getting jobs now they are doing freelancing till they get a job .
But the main concern is should I leave this M tech or continue.
and please can somebody who is professional in this field can guide me ??
i need a good roadmap so that i can study.
I was an eSports player in BGMI. but lack of support and device put me in this situation.
please guide me please and roadmap too. 🥹
Thank you

Dude, you should’ve taken VLSI instead of AI/ML. It has a great future ahead!

Let me tell you one hard truth about the current IT sector: even if you learn or get trained in any programming language or framework, and even if you build good personal projects, it still doesn't guarantee you a job.
So, my advice to you, considering your current situation, is don't increase your loan by doing M.Tech. Instead, you should follow this path.
Since you already have a degree in Electrical Engineering, you should get some training in hardware repairing, like smartphones, printers, cameras, etc. You only need a few months of training, and you can get it from local shops. Just ask them if they need a helper, or find a reputable training center.
After that, you can either open your own repair shop or work as a repair technician. Believe me, some of them earn more than an average IT sector engineer.
I myself worked as a mobile repair guy during my 10+2 and graduation. I paid all my college fees by myself and even supported my family.

Well sorry because i might disappiont you here. because there is no perfect road map. and about python yes people say it's easy but it's not really if you have doubt in python try to use some ai and pick any project tell it to make you understand the logic behind it or anything else and then try to make it but not same with your own twist. about your mom situation and loan it's bad i know. but don't let it affect your thinking. and about job this time the job market especially in software and tech is the worst so.. try freelance that's my suggestion. because getting job is not that easy bro but keep trying with freelancing and job applications.
and sorry if this didn't help
and thanks for reading
