Sir, I am a West Bengal resident and my son will be appearing his 12th board exam on 2024. He has good interest in computer and wants to pursue with it. For that he is preparing for jee mains and wbjee. My query is if he can't do well in these exams so that he can get in good NITs or any govt institutes in CSE or ECE branch, (affording good private college fees is beyond my capacity), then alternately which branch is better to pursue in graduation so that he can do something of his interest in field of computer in future? B.SC in Computer science or B.SC in Mathematics or Physics from any reputed college??(obviously depending on his boards result)
Ans: Hello Arindam,
If he has a good interest in computers, then ask him to focus on his studies more seriously as he has 1 year in hand.
Admissions in good NITs or any good Govt. Engineering college requires a really good rank and there is no scope without it.
As you said, private college is beyond your means then he has to pursue B.Sc in computer science with additional certification courses from outside. And finding placements would be hard.
it would be good if he pursues B.Tech or B.E.
All the best
