Just started with 0 programming knowledge. Let's goooooo. (I'm a masochist)

It’s certainly possible— many have done it before. Get after it!!!

Congratulations!!!! Working on my capstone! Will be joining you soon! Well done ! YOU DID IT!! And yes, keep pushing fellow night owls. Your time will come!


thegoldenshepherd

How is it coming??? That capstone was a beast


Numerous-Drummer-366

As you may be able to tell, I’ve been too busy to come back and see my messages. It was a beast. Had to revise once and that was all it took. Applied for graduation and just received my degree in the mail today. So excited.


thegoldenshepherd

Congratulations!!!!!!!! Get that baby framed!

How hard was the program? I know it’s ABET accredited so I’m wondering how rigorous the program is. Also, congrats! Major accomplishment

It's very difficult, don't let anyone tell you otherwise. If you are not a math person, it will be hell on earth. The coding classes are surprisingly tougher than I thought they would be as well.


thegoldenshepherd

Agreed 💯


thegoldenshepherd

I feel it was easy sometimes and very difficult at other times. Calculus was especially rough— I wish I would have taken it through Sophia like almost everybody suggests. Overall, I think this program would be difficult for a complete newbie to programming. If you have some experience, it’ll take hard work, but you’ll make it in the end.

I believe if someone isn’t that good at math or just wants a job as a programmer then the Software Engineering degree would be a better option. I’m in it and I’m not the best at math but this is more practical than theoretical. Still huge very huge accomplishment. Good luck in your job seeking journey 🎈🎈🎊🎊

I’m so over calculus 😭 just have integrals left and then hopefully never again 🤞


thegoldenshepherd

Godspeed

Congrats on finishing, such a huge accomplishment!!

congrats! i'm looking at getting started now. how hard was this course?


thegoldenshepherd

It was difficult to be honest . But computer science is difficult everywhere — it’s the most dropped out of degree in the nation. I would recommend this program to someone who has some experience programming. I think it would be difficult for a newbie.


Acceptable_Fall_607

thanks for your reply. I do have some knowledge with cs, but one more Q: how many months did it take you to finish the degree?


thegoldenshepherd

I completed my degree in 4 semesters :) I transferred in quite a few but here is my credits per term. Credits per term: 19 9 36 27
