I have an undergrad degree in polisci. I was planning on going to law school, but got rejected everywhere I applied. I am really reconsidering going to law school. Last couple years, I realized that I have a genuine interest in coding, and I could pursue it as a career. I learned C++ with online tutorials, and I think I am proficient at it, or at least have the potential to be much better.
Anyway, money is tight, so I would really appreciate any input you have about a career change. Thank you!
(If this belongs on another sub, please let me know)
EDIT: I am in the U.S. I can move states if necessary.
