Just look at LinkedIn – all the FAANG engineers, HFT traders, product managers, investment bankers, MBB consultants, private‑equity, venture‑capital and hedge‑fund folks are from a science background. In IIMs, about 90 % of students come from science streams. Yes, there's academic diversity, but they mostly prefer science students.
This hits hard.
I'm stuck in my career, can't afford a CFA, and don't want to pursue CA.
BTech + MBA and 5+ yrs of experience.
Even science folks are struggling to get jobs.
Not every science or engineering job is a high‑paying gig. I'm a mechanical engineer working in the MEP sector; it took me a few years of struggle to land a decent, well‑balanced job.
I see many of my IT friends getting high‑income roles, though.
Focus on upskilling the stream you like. Money and everything else will follow later.
Remember, not every career is a fancy, high‑paying one.
That's not true, man.
Someone doing BTech and not learning anything 'real' is in the same spot as a B‑Com graduate.
CFA and CA aren't the only paths for B.Com degree holders.
Pick a niche in commerce – finance, marketing, HR – and start working towards it from the first year. All these fields are huge.
No HFT company comes to a regular college, bro. They only recruit from top IITs, not even NITs.
And with an MBA, you'll be the cream of the crop!
How old are you??
Yeah, most commerce roles are taken by science people because they couldn't land a job in their own field.
If commerce has no scope, why are science and engineering grads begging for jobs in commerce and management? This post is clueless – what are you even drinking?
Do a BCom or BBA and then an MBA. Keep interning while studying and join clubs and committees to build a strong profile. You can do really well with a commerce degree.
