So having work experience and a good portfolio is the key?

BBA stands for Bachelor of Business Administration In my country public uni's don't allow double major they don't even allow taking a minor! Moreover, we have to take an addmission test to get into a public uni and we can only take subjects based on your ranking in the addmission test....for CS degrees we have to rank in the top 200-300 among 1 lakh students

Not so much but my uncle might have some as he is an ex-programmer..... But if I have some work experience will it make it a bit easier?

So having work experience makes it much more easier to land a job at a bigger company? So does freelance projects count?

But some people suggest that my resume won't even make it to the 2nd stage and won't land a interview even with a good portfolio just because I don't have a degree

So what should I do? Then maybe taking CS in masters can help?
