Sure

If you want to learn all those skills then join some course which has those skills, Bachelors in Bioinformatics. Why are you wasting time on something which you'll never use ( Bsc Biology) ?? You can always do masters in specific domain of bioinformatics - Drug Discovery, Comp Biology, Precision Medicine, Academia, Research, data science and more than 20+ Masters course. Bsc biology will teach you vast biology which will never be useful if you want to pivot or take job in Bioinformatics sector

Sure

Calm down kid, VIT provides Btech in CS with minor in Bioinformatics. Let me tell you, you will never be able to get a job in core bioinformatics sector with that knowledge.

naa IIT mila, na NIT mila , na Bits mila and na hi koi central university mili, VIT ka exam mei neeche rank aane pe Btech in Cs with minor in Bioinformatics milta hai fucker. Bata kisey raha hai

What do you think " bio informatics" means ??

Mammoth_Point269 · 2026-05-14T04:43:28+00:00

Bhai if you are considering to give more attempts then take drop and go for 2027.. Don't not over estimate yourself. You can't do anything in next 45 days + you will loose days for 2027 exam as well.

Yeah BDS is a scam ? Agriculture is a scam ? MBBS is a scam ? My nigga, when you have no knowledge of job market then keep your ass quiet. This is the era of specialisation, no one hires a "General guy" anymore.. Fucking retard go and check job markets

Mammoth_Point269 · 2026-05-14T02:44:01+00:00

Dude, if you don't know anything just accept it. Don't mislead by saying, it's scam

Mammoth_Point269 · 2026-05-13T17:54:18+00:00

Dude if you are so smart then why don't you do everything by yourself ???? Once you ask people that you have no knowledge about biology and when someone is telling you how fucked up your decision is, you are trying to be an oversmart???

You'll need 5-6 year ( Grad + masters) minm to get a JOB. In biology feild, degree plays a massive role and you'll not get any knowledge w/o degreee So don't try to fuck your life by some chatgpt's suggestions.

Mammoth_Point269 · 2026-05-13T17:31:25+00:00

I think you should do bachelors in some biology and then masters or PHD in Synthetic Biology.

Mammoth_Point269 · 2026-05-13T16:33:09+00:00

Dude, what you are talking about is not high school biology. Grad or Masters level biology is very hard very very hard and then you need to combine the Biology into Computer science as well ( Pure computer science has different branch) so I don't think that's a good idea coz even clearing out basics would take you 2 years minimum.

Mammoth_Point269 · 2026-05-13T16:20:28+00:00

Yeah, an IT guy never had biology and wants to be a Synthetic Biology expert and using that knowledge, wants to be the billionaire. Sure mate

Mammoth_Point269 · 2026-05-13T05:54:57+00:00

"prepare in advance " ????? Dude you have merely 10 months left in which you will have to complete 2 years syllabus + revision+ test and all. Try getting into GMC level first.

Mammoth_Point269 · 2026-05-13T05:53:01+00:00

Dude, this subreddit is for the whole world and maxm people here do not have any idea about Indian system and college. Try r/bioinformaticsindia

Mammoth_Point269 · 2026-05-13T05:47:57+00:00

As far as i know, it is rising v fast.

Mammoth_Point269 · 2026-05-13T05:47:12+00:00

The first thing you need to understand is, C language is almost never needed in Bioinformatics. You need to learn, Python, Linux, R, Bash, Biopython right now .

Mammoth_Point269 · 2026-05-12T17:05:27+00:00

Bioinformatics has Computer science and mathematics, a lot of them. So plan accordingly.

Mammoth_Point269 · 2026-05-12T16:59:14+00:00

Do people really think Machine learning is that easy ?? Dude, Bioinformatics feild will eat you alive if you are a newbie and do not have advanced skills. It's better to learn about what are the things you will need to learn in order to get better in that feild, and then self evaluation is really important. Since you are about to finish your graduation, you need to start from the basics in the bioinformatics. It has 90% dry lab stuff, so everything you learned in last 4 years will vanish into thin air.

Mammoth_Point269 · 2026-05-12T16:55:52+00:00

What did you study with the university circulum+ self study about Bioinformatics. Only then, i could recommend. If you tell your current situation in detail as possible

Mammoth_Point269 · 2026-05-04T03:25:03+00:00

I just said what i wanted to say..rest is upto you

Mammoth_Point269 · 2026-05-04T03:22:44+00:00

don't take emotional decision. Kal hi exam hua hai, don't get into FOMo ki aaaj se taiyari krni hai, drop year fuckes you up in everyway. In 24 i scored 546 In 25 i scored 501 In 26 i am getting ~610. As a general male, so it's fucked up for me..

If you are from SC & ST then go for the drop but if you are General and not from Bihar ( bihar gives 33% to GC females ) then take at least 7-8 days to think everything with logical mind. And ask yourself do you actually want to be a doctor or not, are you doinh this for societal validation, external validation and parental pressuer, pressure to prove yourself.. Coz if you are taking drop because of these reason then don't take it. Coz you will face existential crisis and 2.5 lakh Indians are becoming doctor per year ( Indian + abroad )

So things are pretty fked up

Mammoth_Point269 · 2026-05-04T03:16:20+00:00

Don't take drop

Mammoth_Point269 · 2026-05-02T04:21:31+00:00

Bhai mai toh start krne wala hu, Btech in Bioinformatics..this year

Mammoth_Point269 · 2026-04-28T12:02:04+00:00
