My cousin is a developer and he has about $300 worth of Claude API credits left for this month that he probably won't end up using. He told me I could use them if I wanted to build something. The credits are tied to his account, so I can't sell them or give anyone access. I can only use them to build a product or service.

I'm a CS student(Freshmen) and I can code, but I've never really built something with the goal of making money. Since I have this opportunity, I don't want to waste it on random experiments.

The thing is, I honestly have no idea whether $300 in API credits is even enough to build something with the potential to get recurring customers. If it is, I'd really appreciate some guidance on what you'd build. If it isn't, what would you suggest instead? Is there something I could realistically make that would earn some money before the credits run out?

I'm open to pretty much anything, whether it's a SaaS, an AI tool, automations for businesses, developer tools, or something else entirely. My main goal is to build something that has a realistic chance of getting paying customers.

Has anyone here done something similar? If you had this amount of API usage for a month, what would you spend it on and why? I'd also love to know what kind of income you think is realistically possible if I execute well. I'm interested in hearing what has actually worked for people rather than just ideas that sound good on paper.

Hey everyone, I recently finished my A Levels and started preparing for the NUST NET. So far, I've completed the entire FSC syllabus. It was a bit rushed, but I'd say my concepts are decent to strong. The only issue is that I haven't practiced MCQs yet.

My paper-based NET in Karachi will most likely be on 19th or 20th July, and my target is SEECS CS, so I'm aiming for 155+.

I'm confused about what my strategy should be from here:

• Option 1: Practice MCQs chapter-wise every day (around 3 Physics chapters + 2 Maths chapters daily). I should be able to finish one complete cycle in about 8 days, then revise and repeat.
• Option 2: Spend less time on chapter-wise MCQs and focus more on FLOs, marathons, and full-length practice tests.

What would you recommend? If you've scored 155+ or got into SEECS CS, what strategy worked best for you in the final few weeks?

Any tips, study plans, or resources would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance! 🙏(UWU <3 )
