Subject: what should i do next?
Date: 9-Feb-2002
Question: Hi!,

I am Usha and have finished my IInd year in Bsc. Computers at Hyderabad. As I am doing my degree in computers, I would like to pursue my career also in Computers. I want to make my computer background strong and thus want to do part-time computer course during the holidays.
Could you please advice me upon which computer course should I go for?
What are the other Post-graduation courses for which i have to prepare from now onwards?

Thanking you in advance.
Usha.

Answer: Dear Usha,
You have opted for a very good career. After your graduation, you should plan for doing Masters in Computer Applications (M.C.A.) The MCA entrance examination requires a very thorough knowledge of all the Mathematics subjects that you study during your graduation, also brush up your English language through GRE. An MCA from a good institute is equivalent to B.Tech, and the job options for you will be unlimited.

Instead of going in for a computer course at this stage, I would suggest that you take up small projects and assignments to strengthen your programming skills.

All the best!

Your counsel.
