Hi Nitish,

I myself being a Computer Science Engineering student feels the best to answer your question.

Having computer science knowledge is not compulsory for doing Computer Science Engineering but it gives you a slight edge.

In what so ever college you go, teachers assume that you know the basics so they will move forward really fast. In short, you have to study all by yourself. This won't be easy if you have even a little less craziness for computers.

In the end, like most of the students who come to CS branch just for placement, you will get a placement in some service-based company with a salary of around 20-25 k per month. You will be stuck in a job you hate and then you will opt for masters and most probably an MBA. In the end, you will realize that you wasted 4 great years of your life.

In the end, I would suggest that read about the different field and find what interests you and then put your whole effort in that. You are just looking that people are running over to take engineering and CSE, but you should also look to the peoples after their degree. Most of them are unemployed or having a salary not more the 25000.

Your life is in your hands.

Take a wise decision.

Hope it was useful to you and your query was resolved.

Feel free to contact us for any queries.

All the best :)

Everyone has different preferences and the best course is different for everyone. You seem to be a good student and conscious about your future. I would highly recommend you to sit down peacefully and search for youtube and blogs about different possibilities you have. then select the few that interest you the most and then read more about them. it may take 2-3 days, but in the end, you will be clear about your goals.

See I was a PCMB student as well who is now in Computer Science Engineering branch. So even I studied biology for 2 years and now m here in CSE branch. And coding programming is completely new and difficult but for me but at the same time it's interesting and enjoyable once you find the attraction towards it. Read some articles about what exactly coding is so you will get a better idea.

Best wishes. Thank you.

Hello,
There are many students in 1st year btech csewith absolutely zero computer knowledge. it is fine if yiu are not aware of anything about computer science. If you are willing to work hard and put your best in it, then you can absolutely excel in the field.
Good Luck!
