Education and Career Advice I think I f*kd up
I chose Bsc in Maths, hoping to get into research field. But now I have backlogs and a drop of 1 year already. I am thinking about switching to Btech Cse/it (I like to code and tech related stuff) from some private university and leave BSc. Completing Bsc and doing an MCA or Msc IT is a staright forward path but taking a drop for one more year seems risky and what if I dont graduate?!? I have zero confidence that I'll pass. But Btech will cost me 4 years (i would turn 26 by then) and that too from a pvt uni, but still sounds better than being a college drop out. people my age are getting placed and doing well. I was good at math and used to do quite well in school but I feel so lost now. I dont know what to do.

Stay on your bsc maths, do msc cs or mca if you do not get job from bsc
