What’s blocking students from building real-world projects in college?

    Hey everyone — I'm a final-year student, and I’ve been wondering this a lot lately.
    We always hear that “you need a good project to land a job”, but most students I know either copy from GitHub, get stuck, or just... give up.
    We’re doing a small open survey to understand this from both sides — students and educators.
    If you've ever:
    Built or struggled with a final-year project

    Helped someone else do it (educator/mentor)

    Wanted to sell or learn from real-world projects

    We’d love to hear your honest experience. 🙏
    It’s just 2–3 mins, totally anonymous.
    📄 Survey Link – for students & educators.

    We’ll be using the insights to create open resources and maybe a system that actually helps.
    Thanks in advance if you participate — or drop a comment about your experience.

    Just to add — this survey is for literally anyone who's been through the project phase in college.

    We’re trying to figure out:

    What stops students from building cool stuff?

    What actually helps students finish a project?

    How mentors/teachers can support better?

    And whether buying/selling projects is something people genuinely do — and why.

    Super grateful to anyone who fills it. And if you’ve had an experience (good or bad) with your project — feel free to share it here too 🙌
