If I complete college and directly pursue master's, will the current job market affect my chances for a Bachelor's?
Yes, the current job market can impact your chances, but pursuing a master's right after your bachelor's can strengthen your profile.
A master's degree in Computer Science can make you more competitive, especially for specialized and higher-paying roles in fields like AI, Machine Learning, and Data Science. Your strong academic record (8.3 CGPA in Computer Science, 94% in 12th) further supports your prospects.
However, while a master's can improve job opportunities, it does not guarantee immediate employment if the market is saturated. Weigh the benefits against the time and investment, and consider how this aligns with your long-term career goals. If you need personalized guidance, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
