Thank you for your replies. They are very useful.

Hi, I am a final year Computer Science student who is just about to finish the first semester of the fourth year. To be honest, I admit that I haven't been a good student during my studies since I wasn't deeply involved with subjects and just did enough to get average grades. However, I have theoretical, some practical knowledge and I am good at Databases. I am aware of all, therefore I would like make a big change and do well this time. Throughout my studies, I have touched various programming languages in which I mostly have a starting level. Now, I have a final year project to complete which is to be an Android project and also second semester subjects will keep me busy enough. When I look at the job descriptions, they mostly require background in different areas which really scares me. In short, I need advice from experienced people/ users here. I feel my background is weak so it needs to be improved. On the other hand, it's a huge area so I am not sure on what to concentrate. Another option is to find a part time job. The thing is I have a couple of months before I graduate and I want to improve myself. I would really appreciate any advice and direction regarding with my situation. I live in Dublin, Ireland. Thanks in advance.
