Hi Hemant,

Forget private computer institutions.
Go for proper university. As to IGNOU, people still
have not accepted it very well.
I would suggest Pune University accredited MCA/MCM
course is the way to go.
As to the earlier post of getting a low paying job,
that is absolutely true.
A middle approach can be to start in whatever job you
get and go for MCA?MCM etc as outlined above.
This decision is also influenced by how much time u
have to learn/get a new degree etc. and what ur
priorities are.
To this end, comments by Yehuda are very useful.
Hope i have not confused u more.... :)

Regards
Shreekar Joshi
