I've just finished my 12th standard and sought advice from all my teachers, including the principal, on what course to pursue. Here's their input:
Which course should I take?
They suggested prioritizing Computer Science (CSC) as the first choice, followed by Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) as the second choice, and other options as the third. They explained that CSC tends to be easier than ECE, often leading to a higher CGPA. Additionally, they emphasized that recruiters typically prefer candidates from the CSC branch over others.
Can I take specialization courses?
While specialization courses aren't discouraged, they stress the importance of grasping the basics first. They recommended pursuing an undergraduate degree in Computer Science Engineering (CSE) before considering specialization at the postgraduate level. They pointed out that many specialization courses are relatively new, and only a few researchers specialize in them at top institutions like IIT. Moreover, colleges may struggle to find faculty members proficient in teaching these courses. They also raised concerns about how recruiters perceive specialization degrees. Additionally, they noted that focusing solely on specialization could limit one's knowledge breadth.
Why You Shouldn't Take AI as Your Core Subject in CollegeIn this video, I explain why pursuing Artificial Intelligence (AI) as your core subject in college might not be the best choice. Despite its popularity and hype, AI comes with significant challenges: an oversaturated job market, intense competition, and a demanding curriculum. I also touch on the ethical concerns and the rapidly changing nature of the field that can make it hard to keep up. Instead, I suggest considering alternative subjects that might offer more stable and fulfilling career paths. Watch to find out why AI might not be the right fit for you and explore other exciting academic opportunities.
