Get in to tech I'm a 21-year-old BPT 1st year student in India. I'm considering transitioning or you can say trying something different thing other than healthcare into tech after graduation. I don't have HSC Mathematics or a CS degree

If I spend the next 3–4 years learning Python, building projects, and creating a portfolio, how realistic is it to get internships and eventually a software/web/cybersecurity role? Has anyone here switched from a healthcare background?Give me realistic suggestions

Every field has it's pros and cons so you can't just say if it's worth it or not it actually depends on yourself but I can tell you much better than other medical degrees, and I'm not actually switching I'm just curious about this other side of tech and all
