How to become a software engineer after the 10th?

Question

I am studying in high school and interested in programming. Is it possible to become a software engineer after completing 10th standard?

Answer 1

Almost all companies ask for a minimum of bachelor’s degrees for a software engineer role. There are few companies like Google, EY, Apple, Starbucks, etc. those don’t ask for a degree if you have skills required for them. You can apply for them or you can do freelancing projects. 

Enroll the advance mathematics courses for linear algebra, calculus. A Software engineer should have knowledge of C, C++ or Java programming languages, software development, Data structures, DBMS, Computer Networks. There are a lot of courses available online you can take one subject at a time and complete them.

Create a good profile on GitHub with projects and publish good work. Apply for the companies I have mentioned above which do not look for degrees.
