Hello subrin and welcome to the forums,

Have you worked with any other database system? Are you already comfortable with sql?

Are you already a programmer - do you want to be a programmer?

There is much to learn and depending on where you are and where you want to go may make a difference.
Hope this helps,
d.sch.
