Hey guys, if you've seen my last post, you might be a bit familiar with this.
I started learning according to the suggestions that I received, like studying from this website and all, but, sometimes I can't seem to decide my future on a specific job position I would like to work in.

Like, I want to design PCB layouts, but, embedded seems interesting as well ! Both have different prereqs like one requires FPGA in majority and other requires a good knowledge of computer systems and coding. So, I try to work my way from back - by selecting a job position then trying to learn things relevant to it, but it feels wrong to do so since one specific job position is not my sole interest.

TL;DR - can't seem to fix on one single interest/job, can't seem to narrow down what to study after the basics.

Any help would be much much appreciated !!!

Bro stop asking advices from strangers online, go in a company and START WITH SOMETHING. You can change your choice any time in your lfie.

Take as many courses as you can covering as broad a spectrum as you can. That will help you discover what types of things you like and don't like. Even the stuff you learn about things you end up not liking will be useful background knowledge to have.

Also, look into co-op and internships to get some exposure to real workplace opportunities.

But, word of warning, talk to people that have held those positions with those employers to get a sense for whether they are going to give you a meaningful experience or just use you as a gopher to do little more than scut work.
