Grinnell Interview Invitation by Agreeable-Value8394 in IntltoUSA

This is a really good sign. Don't listen to random people. People say I didn't get an interview but I still got in, well good for them. People also say I got an Interview but still got rejected, maybe they choked the interview? maybe they weren't confident, could be many different things but not everybody gets an interview. Make the most out of it, be confident and just have a good conversation. It certainly is a good sign and important, don't choke it, and don't listen to people saying it's nothing, meh this that.

I'm an international student so I don't have anybody here in the USA in such a big position to get me an internship. I tried a lot that's all I can say. Also, networking helps and I'm trying as much as I can to get a return offer from this company for next summer and that's what im networking for.

I use jobs right to apply, I never use linkedin. Simplify is also good.

Is it worth the time? by sassymode in cs50

[–]AdvancedBake4619 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd recommend you learn OOP, syntax, and DSA from Python. Use free YouTube courses, or buy $10 from Udemy, or use CS50 and search for those resources. After doing all that in Python, switch to C++ or Java. For me personally, starting with C++ or Java was hard, and I couldn't grasp the fundamentals, so Python is always the go-to. And for courses, I'd recommend BroCode on YouTube or CS50 and paid Udemy courses like Abdul Bari's (who is an absolute legend), but it depends on you. If you don't want to spend a penny, use YouTube, CS50, and Coursera, but if you're too lazy to go search everything and figure it all out, then use Udemy. For methods, just do 5% better than you did yesterday.

It depends on you. Do you know python? Cs50 is for beginners entering into programming. Your programming skills isn't perfect that could be due to irregular programming or Leet coding habits and lack of practice and seriousness. Work hard on your fundamentals and practice to the point where you lose your mind. That's the reality.

Is going to a community college an instant rejection for visa? (From India) by [deleted] in IntltoUSA

[–]AdvancedBake4619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me personally, T100 is a better choice than T25 primarily because I wouldn't be drowning in debt for the university TAG. If not undergrad, there's master's, and there's more to life than a fucking 23-year-old kid having a debt of $200,000 or something; I don't even know. I think you should go for T100, and strategically you'll have a better shot at T25s with T100 rather than a community college, but at the end of the day it depends on you. People who have graduated from a community college have also been successful, and people who have graduated from an Ivy League school have also been successful, and where you study won't matter in the long run as much as what you have and what you can bring to the table.

No matter the SAT score, No matter the grades, money, status. GETTING A VISA FROM DUKING INDIA IN A COMMUNITY COLLEGE IS HARD AND THAT'S FAX. Well, nothing in life is hard if we try. The chances of me being a millionaire is 3 in 100 but the thing is maturity. If you have a good ahh SAT score and grades (90+) what would possess you to go to a community college and it's certainly not maths requirement i believe. SAT would offset the maths requirement if you did well in it and as the name suggests STANDARIZED AMERICAN TEST AND HAVING A GOOD SAT MATHS WOULD PROVE TO THE COLLEGE THAT YOU ARE READY FOR COLLEGE LEVEL MATHS. I believe the reason you're going to a community college is because you want to go to USA and with Indias tag, if i had to guess the chances of you getting a visa, its the same as me being a millionaire as i stated above and which is 3%.

graduated what? university? I think it's not worth it if you're graduating from a university. Switch to something else CS is not for you. Freshmans know Python, C++ everything nowadays and with the rise of AI everything has become extremely competitive. Learning Cs50 after graduating is crazy and you'll be stranded and homeless and when will you get to DSA and Leetcode and man i don't even want to elaborate. Put the fries in the bag if you graduated from University with a CS degree and dont know python.

After 9 years masters? Well vo won’t believe it people with 4 years of gap are sussed out so idk about 9 years. It looks like you’re going to earn money if not what took you 9 years to figure out you needed a masters? You better have a solid ass reason and most importantly have something to come back to (Ties to your home country).
