            <title>What is the best possible career path for low GPA?</title>
            <link>http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/5119274</link>
            <description>2.69 from a local private uni ranked 800-1000 in QS, 2019 result, engineering, no extra-curricular activities&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I only know 4 persons from the same school and course who graduated with a 2.3 got into consultant for 3k; 3.4 got into contractor; 2.5 claims to be actively seeking but is involved in family business; 2.7 works as customer service for 4~5k. So I thought my GPA was quite common until i encountered many recruiters who thought my GPA needed justification.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I spent 70% of my days in gaming and browsing internet during my uni. I only do assignment and did not study regularly. I did not make friends. I also slept in a lot. I was pretty sloppy, forgetful. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To make things worse, my personality is somewhat autistic. Doctors attributed it to just a personality, a few suggested intervention for suspected depression, my thyroid was checked because i also look underage. My appearance is somewhat abnormal, it makes people want to stare. I do not show signs of cognitive deficiency, social cues issue or genetic diseases.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My spm was 7A (2012 sciences), I went to a private uni despite advised against by my family due to bullying concern. I dropped out after 1.5 year, i wouldn&amp;#39;t say it&amp;#39;s bullying but i was tired of making people uncomfortable. I went to a different uni after 6 months of unemployment and 1 month of working. During my studies, i again took leaves to drive taxi, i got back to my studies after getting banned from Uber due to low rating. I was in my mid-20s by the time i graduated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What is the best possible future i can have now and how? What is the best possible job i should try to get?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I laid out the choices i can think of&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) Learn coding&lt;br /&gt;2) Online master&amp;#39;s degree in engineering while working&lt;br /&gt;3) Do ACCA while working&lt;br /&gt;4) Get specialist cert in specific domain of engineering, while working&lt;br /&gt;5) Get a different degree while working &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some people think that i won&amp;#39;t survive jobs like project engineer, process management, coordinator. Design/consultant, computational might be more suitable. But since i am academically inferior, how do i get those jobs?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What is the best possible suitable job i can get?&lt;br /&gt;</description>
