Does CGPA really matter when I'll have to switch to a better company ?
I recently got placed as an SDE through on campus placements drive and am currently in my 7th sem.
Degree - Btech Branch - CSE CGPA - 8.5+ Sem - 7th
My joining is from next year.
I have some time before joining which I really want to give to development and some other skills .
I don't really want to waste any more time on academics as it hasn't helped at all ( apart from interview shortlisting due to good CGPA ).
Will CGPA matter at all when I'll have to switch to a better company? If yes, should I focus on academics and improve my CGPA?
Most of you are much more experienced than me so would want to know your take on this?
Beyond 60-65, it just doesn’t matter. May be if it is below 60, then for first few years it still may get noticed. But beyond 65%, nobody cares if you have got 85, or 70.
DOESNT MATTER
