I am doing bca online. Next year plans to do mca at amrita campus, is it worth doing m,tech after mca,

Ans: Personally I dont think it adds much value as both MCA and MTech are post graduation courses. It will again depend on your long term plan. If you plan to take up a job, then look for a job directly or can do short relevant courses. MTech after MCA makes sense only if you get admission to a top college.
