Studied Biology science in 12th standard and graduated in Electronics and Communication Engineering, finally working as software developer. Sounds funny to hear, however it is a fact for many of our students who is going away with the flow by sacrificing their passion in the middle. Course like Electronics and Communication Engineering is not a piece of cake to learn without love and passion towards the subject as it is a promptly advanced field, with newer ideas emerging every other second.
