Hello everyone,

I really need guidance and honest suggestions from you all.

I am a BCA + MCA (2026) graduate, but I don’t have strong knowledge in coding or the IT field. I know this might sound surprising, but it’s not like I never tried. I did try to learn multiple times, but due to lack of interest and inconsistency, I kept falling into a loop of starting → learning → forgetting → starting again.

However, I’ve realized that I can use AI tools effectively to assist with IT-related tasks, like understanding concepts, debugging, generating code, and improving productivity. I feel this is something I can build on if I continue in the IT field.

One thing I’m proud of is that in my entire 5 years (UG + PG), I never had a single backlog. I also didn’t rely on cheating in almost all exams and practicals.

During my BCA, I had already decided that I didn’t want to pursue MCA—I actually wanted to do an MBA. But due to some fearful and poor decisions, I still went ahead with MCA. Now I’ve completed it, but I have no job and haven’t seriously tried for one either.

I’m currently 23 years old and thinking about taking an education loan and preparing for MBA entrance exams. My plan is to pursue an MBA in 2027–2029, meaning I would graduate at around 26.

I’m very confused right now and would really appreciate your advice on these:

1. Is pursuing an MBA worth it in my situation, especially considering my age?
2. Should I continue in the IT field and start again from basics with full dedication?
   • If yes, what path should I choose (Frontend, Backend, Cloud, Cybersecurity, Testing, etc.)?
3. Are there IT roles with less coding that I can realistically aim for?
4. Or should I consider a completely different career path?

I feel stuck and frustrated, but I genuinely want to make the right decision this time and am willing to put in consistent effort moving forward.

However, I can use AI tools to assist with basic coding tasks and learning, but I’m not highly experienced yet. I believe this is something I can improve on with consistency.

Any guidance, personal experiences, or practical advice would mean a lot.

Thank you 🙏
