ELECTRONICS LEARNING GUIDANCE DOUBT

Well, I have started with this electronics stuff not just because I like electronics but also because as a future engineer this is something I should really know. I know what a protoboard is, I know what the ohm law is and how it is used, and you know the basics as well topics like what a condenser, resistor, diode, etc. However, even though I own a gear and equipment such as an electronics toolset and a protoboard and some components I need to know what other basics I should cover so I can succeed in electronics.

Sorry if this may sound annoying and I know some of you may tag me as a "n00b" but I really want to learn to make my own circuits and be a DIY master in electronics.
 

You really need to buy a DVM, Digital Voltmeter. If you read its instruction book it will give you an idea of what it will measure.
I am not aware of what book you should try and get , since its 50 years since I bought one. What are you interested in?, topics such as audio amplifiers, radio receivers, computers, radio control. . . If there is a subject that you are interested in, do a search here for it or enter it in Google. After a bit you will find sites that are compatible with your interests and knowledge.

Besides making audio amplifiers, my first major project was an analog multimeter. My second major project was a kit oscilloscope that I made 50 years ago, I souped it up a little over the years and it still works perfectly today. It taught me a lot, especially when I played with unscrambling pay-per-view TV. I needed to regenerate suppressed sync and to detect when they made the video negative then make it positive for those moments.

Long before the mainstream had surround sound, I made the Motorola SQ surround sound system. I also made a Motorola voice switched speakerphone that worked well.
 

the next level would be getting familiar solid state devices; triac, scr, transistor, fet, mosfet, UJT and so on
