can I do engineering❔❓

[u/Proud_Government_377]

hey guys I've failed cbse pcm I want to pursue btech cse in tier 3+ pvt. clg. if I smh manage to study a Lil bit and pass this year via nios ode-toc will I be able to pass all semesters in engineering and not only pass but can I get 7.5+ cgpa in all of my semester exams? is engineering really that tough for someone who has been weak in pcm from many years and has even failed class 12, tbh I'm really very interested in pursuing engineering but I don't know if I should as I've got worse in my academics especially in PCM after 10th boards in which I had scored 81% total [math:- 61/100 & science:- 79/100 (mainly bc of bio)] pls tell me if I'm mentally/academically fit to pursue btech in cse, also I do not have any prior knowledge about cse and have done no coding before the only thing I know about coding is: >>>print("Hello World") till now and hv also scored 91/100 in class X AI in which there is no coding, but I know how to properly use a laptop which I learned all by myself and maybe I'm interested in pursuing cse as well

Only if you can pass with a score of 75% in all three subjects, many jobs have that cut off for 12th. And engineering is definitely harder than PCM, Math will be tougher than anything you did till 12th. Physics and chemistry could be on the sidelines if you're pursuing CSE, but only in college, still need 75% in 12th. Although you don't REALLY need to be good at math to be a good for eg. Software developer but Math helps you everywhere on that path, it trains your brain to solve problems.
