I am studing Cs but now i am so doubtful of this major and feeling really low, it is really hard to build a career if not passionate about anything particular

    CS? Computer science?

    Honestly its probably the way its being taught. Try building side projects you're interested in.

    I have just completed bsc in physics... And bcz of corona I lost a yr... And thinking of doing ma in English... And I guess I'm gonna loose 1 more yr bcz of covid 19 ... I am basically doing something cuz it's better than doing nothing... Like I can't see where I am going.... Sometimes, I get so fed up that I cannot explain.....
    All we can do is wait and do our best in everything by making the right choice in the moment...

    I can feel all your words but it is painful ,that fear that some right decisions can turn out wrong

    I don't know but I think that I don't have talent of doing complex coding

    It's all about practice. Are you in a BA or BS program? What made you decide on CS in the first place? I hate the way my school's professors lecture, but doing things that interest me (projects, volunteer cs instructor, etc.) made realize its not cs I disliked. Also try to code as often as you can so you're more familiar with how it works for a confidence boost. It's literally learning another language like Spanish, Japanese, etc.


    Think on what you want to do in the field.. to make better decisions.

    I chose CS too and im in love with it .
    Tho let me ask, do u hve something u wanna become? Or sumthin u find cool?
    I chose CS cuz i found hacking nd creating AI cool.
    Maybe u can change majors or find something in CS that you like. Have you explored all the areas?

    actually our education system is not so flexible to explore

    Well true fact is the qualification gets u a job and job gets u money, if thats not motivating then try researching wat you cn do in CS. There's creating apps, ethical hacking, cryptography and stuff
    Maybe u'll be interested in one.
    Tho right now what are u most interested in?

    I've faced the same problem...i am science major and it's flexible for me to choose any career...as a result i became more confused...i almost spend two months to research about my career...and it was like you said , i don't have any perticular liking or disliking towards any career...
    The more i researched the more confuse i got...My parents was so worried..ofc they didn't pressure me to choose anything ... they're happy with what i am choosing...but here i am ...siiiiiighhh
    And so , i decided to get help from a career guidance specialist...and i realised that was one of the best decision I've made. They tought me so much about different opportunities, tbh it was so vast from what I've known...and give me 2-3 appointments to get to know my career interest .they shot listed almost 65 careers with my career interests...and helped me to choose scientifically a career that i am interested in , with an aptitude test.
    .
    I recommend you to visit a career guidance specialist if you ever having a hard time with your career...tbh they can help us so much to find our hidden passion ,and make a better career .my guide assure me to help anytime till i get into my career successfully...(like choosing collages,higher studies, seeking career opportunities...etc)i think everyone is like that too ...you don't have to pressure yourself with the one you're not interested in ...and following its cuz your friends are also in it,is not a very wise way to choose your career... maybe you can fit in. But the situation now seems not like that... even if you can complete the course, as a career it's a thing that we are gonna do a very long period of our life time...so doing it without a passion...it could tire you out (it's something my guide taught me)
    .
    Don't pressure yourself. DON'T choose a career with unscientific advices ...(like from relatives or someone) And more importantly don't waste your time anymore, with something you're not interested in ,you know it's better be late than never...get some help from professionals, and find your hidden passion... good luck ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
    .

    .maahn that was really a long answer ...well, nevermind, because I've been through this situation for so long i got a little carried away... don't mind me....anyway good luck with your career once again

    The main problem is that not everyone has the opportunity to go to such specialist like I can't even find one in my state... I'm from India... And the education system is worse... And it is even worse in my state... Like we have best teachers who can teach but what can we do if we don't have practical equipment... Even my profile. We're complaining about how the severe the situation is... And not even in college... I never had any practical in my entire school life.... Can u believe it.. That is the reason I feel ashamed to say that I am a science major... I have the capabilities but not the opportunity.... And for the best colleges who have those , they r too far away and have very small seats with high pay... Like 1000/100000 .... Comparing to the population I guess it is even less....
    Nowadays I am thinking of improving my hobbies so that even that can make me money...
    And preparing for govt. Jobs... But even that is worse... Like 23 lakh people gave exams out of which only some thousands get jobs.... The whole situation is worse....
    And this pandemic made it even worse for businesses... Like people r now afraid to do business which is making it even more tough to get govt. Jobs......
    Aah.,... I get depressed when I think about it.... Like the whole cycle is completely corrupt...

    What a coincidence ...i am from India too... probably from a different state. (I don't think i can find someone here from my State tho( ̄∇ ̄"))
    You're right...our education system is far from good ...and the Governments are only realising it now, thus thare is gonna be complete reconstruction in two years...lucky them .I am also unlucky due to covid situation...i didn't get to go to the lab too much....and now i am attending practical exams offline...haha ironic right?
    However, most of people don't even know about such a programs like aptitude test, and how useful is this...me too ,i only get to know it recently...i find them online ,and it surprised me they've an office not very far from my house...it's just ,in our undeveloped education system we need to grab what we wanted...no one gonna just push them to us for our own good.even teachs ..i realised it a long ago ...so i stoped waiting for what gonna come and get me...
    I really envy other countries education system which helps children to find an interested career at an early age ╥﹏╥
    Ngl i hate that government job system here....like how the make categories based on cast or income over than skills...and thare is so much injustice....ugh i don't even wanna talk about it...well as for it's decided for me that i am gonna get my work/higher studies in overseas,(atleast i wish). But sometimes the system here is really annoys me

    So um excuse me if im wrong but I thought India had like alotta geniuses? After the US i think its India in standards of education? Or Idk if India was number 1. I might be totally wrong tho

    So um excuse me if im wrong but I thought India had like alotta geniuses? After the US i think its India in standards of education? Or Idk if India was number 1. I might be totally wrong tho Ore-Sama

    Well.... We do have geniuses but without practical... It's like they get lost in the middle... In India, people give way to importance to govt. Jobs and they know very little about different fields.. Like they prefer more engineering or medical fields including IT and mba..and knowing about other fields ... Or have no idea...
    What we lack is practical.... Like we don't know how to use all those book concepts in life.... Since, a wandering mind can be the most beneficial... And since we don't do practicals... We don't even know what it even means to wander around...
    And we do have high class schools and colleges but not anyone can afford them... And what even amazing is that teachers don't come up with the concepts like how they can mix studies with life either.... And we have huge population... So, seats of such schools and colleges makes it soo hard that I cannot even describe...
    For e. g. I in my school yrs memorised almost all lines of my notes...still!..what gonna happen if I won't even be able say how many laws works in a rotating ceiling fan... And which kind of current works there and what is the role of friction there......

    It's true that we've the best colleges and campus system...And yes!if someone got into those colleges and graduated they're nothing less than a super genius... but thare is still so much injustice...and these bestest colleges are a very few in number compared to the whole colleges and institutions ....each state can controls, thier education system to secondary level..so the system can be different even for States...
    So basically even tho we've best Universities and teachers in world... it's only about higher studies...
    The basic education system here starts from elementary to higher secondary (age of 6-18) is still need to improve so much...and the past two years was really become more terrible due to covid issue
    Hopefully it's gonna change near in future, the circular is already out
    I've heard professors in those colleges are really amazing and the campus life will be a very different level ... it's always my dream to get into one of those colleges... gotta work really hard for entrence( ̄∇ ̄")
