8051 OR arm

Hi all

Just finished an embedded programming course.
I wonder if to expertise on KEIL for ARM of KEIL for 8051/52 ?

I was told that 80% of the projects are ARM based ,

What is your advice ?

    "to expertise" takes YEARS

    anyhow, the answer is both or either. If, what it sounds like, that you plan to start some "self study" the choice is difficult since the choice depend on the application and in "self study to have a better chance for a job" you have no idea what will be offered when you are ready. if, indeed, "self study" is what you plan, be ready for a major outlay of cash, the compilers are not cheap and GCC/SDCC experience does not count for much in an industrial setting.

    well, on another track, if you are totally inexperienced in embedded, start with the '51 and add the ARM when you have grasped what embedded imply.
