Can I do Diploma after 10th to become a software programmer? Is 12th necessary for the same or not?

Diploma after class 10th is not a bad option, but to be honest is turning out to be tough and competitive in all the long run of IT jobs and I have come across most of the incidents where people land up going for an option of lateral entry B.Tech after completing their diplomas to fetch job opportunities for themselves. But, it is not like chances do not exist with Diploma at all, there are some chances, but the better and best ones are with degree. Even while applying for the jobs at any online portal for a software developer most of the organizations mention eligibility criteria as degree holders like B.Tech CSE or B.Tech IT or BCA. You may confirm it personally once as well to give you a better hint of the position. All the Best.

Is Diploma a good option? It depends on the college you got admission. I have completed Diploma in mechanical from MSU Poly, which got the best teaching staff, labs. As per my view D2D (Diploma to degree) got pros and cons PROS if you want to go to engineering then Diploma option is best, because here you learn about a particular field in depth, whereas in 12th you learn the whole Science as a basic You will be much more technically sounded compared to the 12th completed students, as we get so much practical knowledge After 12th there is much competition for admission in colleges, due to which students fail to get admission in interested field. After Diploma you get admission directly to 2nd year in engineering. Diploma students have advantage in degree as they have to just revise what they learnt earlier with little deep study in it. You save a lot of money if you get admission in government. Colleges in Diploma compared to high fees of 11th & 12th classes and also of entrance exams. Diploma students are more disciplined as per my opinion, as during their joining they are kid; they take all assignments and projects seriously. I have seen regular students mugging up whereas Diploma students have basic concept cleared. CONS Diploma students communication skills are lower than regular students. Maths this is the only subject where Diploma students will have to concentrate much. Its good Diploma students have one extra degree, but some companies recruit only 12th cleared students (very rare cases though). So if you want to join engineering Diploma is of course a better option!
