Is it worth it to join college after 3 year gap I was doing ca but now I understand it's not my cup of tea now my dad is saying join bca college and I am afraid to get job becauss of 3 year gap

Hello Faisal,

Yes, joining college after a 3-year gap is worth it if you have clarity about your new career path. Many people switch fields or resume studies after realizing their initial choice wasn’t right for them. Here’s why it can still work out:

1) Relevance of BCA: A BCA (Bachelor of Computer Applications) degree has good job prospects, especially in the IT sector, which values skills over age or gaps. Focus on developing programming, data analysis, and software development skills during your course.

2) Addressing the Gap:

a) During interviews, explain that your gap was spent exploring CA and that you shifted focus after realizing it wasn’t your passion.

b) Emphasize your decision-making ability and commitment to your new field.

3) Skill Development: Use your college years to gain internships, certifications (e.g., Python, Java, Data Science), and projects to build a strong portfolio, making your gap less significant.

4) Job Opportunities: The IT industry values skills and hands-on experience over continuous education. If you excel in BCA and develop in-demand technical expertise, the gap won’t hinder your chances of securing a good job.

Key Tips:

• Take online courses to bridge your skill gap while studying.
• Focus on networking and gaining relevant internships during your degree.
• Be confident about your decision and convey it positively to potential employers.

Your determination and effort will matter more than the gap in the long run.

Hello Faisal

Never loose hope and always be confident.

Do not worry and proceed . So what if you have three years gap after your class xii studies.

You can continue your study in whichever program you are interested.

Just you will have to present your gap certificate with reason.  You can give reason that you were preparing for competitive exam.

There are mamy students who try for UPSC , Neet and other competetive exams and they come after two or three years trying their luck.

You can do masters after completing bachelor's degree and you won't find any difficulty in getting job.

All the best for your future.
