I had thoughts in getting/not getting a degree now that I'm a graduating student from my University in the Philippines.

Grades didn't matter to me on Minor subjects(or not Major subjects). I only focused on the subjects in particular to the technology or programming languages I could use after I graduate. After I graduate, the only thing that they will see in my CV is the accomplishments, skills, experiences, and mostly, Diploma.

I'm currently in my Internship and at the same time having a remote job, so having a degree is not an obligation, it's just a title from the university and a trump card for me.

Currently, I'm using VB.NET as a framework for SAP Business by day, and Flutter at night.
