Okay so… I just entered my final year and ngl I’m lowkey panicking. I wasted my last 3 years doing basically nothing. I don’t know programming properly, never built a single real-world project, and now placements are around the corner.

Like fr, is there still any chance for me to pick up a skill, actually build stuff, and somehow get job-ready before it’s too late? Or should I just accept my fate lol.

Also random question (pls don’t roast me): is there even a platform where you can:

  • buy projects (so I can at least see how things work)
  • get mentorship/teaching from people who know their stuff
  • and later maybe even sell my own projects when I get better

Basically like a one-stop place to learn + build + get guidance. Does that even exist or am I just daydreaming here?

Any advice would be a lifesaver 🙏—

    Keep your mouth shut, and fake it til you make it.

    It’s what EVERYBODY does. That is literally the key to life that nobody tells you when you are young.
