u/Away_Phase_7540

ECE dualite here with around 7.8x CG. After seeing this sem’s PS tracker, it honestly feels pretty rough for Phoenix + this CG if you want decent software/data analytics roles. SI season is probably out of reach for me too since I don’t have strong projects or great DSA prep yet.

I want to use the next ~8 months well before PS season next year. I also need a good trajectory financially because I’ll have loans to pay off after college, and realistically I want to end up around the 22–25 LPA range eventually.

For seniors who were in a similar position, what should I focus on now? Is strong DSA enough at this point or should I prioritize projects more? Are decent software/data/AI-ish PS roles still realistically achievable from this position if I work hard consistently from now?

I had a question about grading, especially for lower scores in MPI.For context: I got around 125 when the average was ~150 in pct and I’m expecting something like ~25 marks in compre.Overall, I might end up around 150/300.
