Still I haven't started cp and I am in final year (2020 graduate) .
I feel so much regret mysefl for not doing cp in my btech .
I missed lot of opportunities.
I am feeling so much regret because cp is not only to get in placed top companies but it also improves *thinking skills* .
Btech is first time where I switched on the computer and no one guided me what to do 😔.
Past is past.

Competitive programming is just a Small part of this industry. Lots of things take major work. You can be frontend web developer, backend web developer, UI/UX designer, ML engineer or something else.
Don't take it as Competitive programming is everything. It's not even 10%. It depends where are you going. If you're going for a company who works on web applications they will ask you about your knowledge on apis and react js and OOP. So just chill. Don't need to worry.
