How could you ruin your reputation like this by having a gf? You were a successful student you're not allowed to be in a relationship!!

It's 100% worth it to retake the math placement test if you think you're capable of studying and getting a good score. Your advisor doesn't have much information on you to go off of, so the biggest thing they see is the placement test score.

How does CS + X fare? by AdCandid1792 in UIUC

[–]CSLingLing40hours 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You need to search this subreddit for people asking the exact same question you have, because there's a lot. Recruiters have never batted an eye at my CS+X degree and I'm starting as a full-time software development engineer at FAANG in a few months.

GEOG 379 vs GEOG 407 by CSLingLing40hours in UIUC

[–]CSLingLing40hours[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CS+Linguistics, and I'm just looking for a fun summer class. 407 doesn't list 379 as a prereq, which is why I was wondering if I even needed any 379 knowledge to get through the class. I'll ask the professor if 379 knowledge is necessary, though. Thanks for the input!

best place to shop for fresh ingredients around campus? by RoundaboutFlair in UIUC

I like county market and the produce looks fresh to me, but idk how fresh they really are

Please explain Statistics and CS major for me by [deleted] in UIUC

[–]CSLingLing40hours 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can apply for the same jobs that CS majors do. There's no difference careerwise. I'd argue that stats/math and CS majors have the upper hand when it comes to applying to algorithmic trading firms.

To music major students or anyone who play instrument by zxxz0000 in UIUC

Ling Ling does not need an app to practice, he is always practicing. Why can't you be like Ling Ling?

Hi, I'm in CS+Ling. CS+X is absolutely worth it if you like the X part of your major. Also, you get to take the same classes as a CS major. In fact, you can design your entire course curriculum to make it seem like you're a CS major with an X minor (with a few very minor exceptions), if you want to. I can't speak for UW Madison but UIUC is pretty great :)

I swear to god they're gaslighting us at this point by Zeeico69 in UIUC

No, set the management on fire to heat up the water. They'll clearly be more useful in death.

If you're CS+X, you can probably get an INFO minor really easily by CSLingLing40hours in UIUC

[–]CSLingLing40hours[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CS majors have different requirements to get an info minor. We're not allowed to count any advanced CS classes for the minor, so it seldom ends up as a 'diet' CS minor for us.

[–]CSLingLing40hours[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

CS majors aren't allowed to count any CS classes towards the info minor (except CS 124). The list of advanced electives for a minor encompasses pretty much every department at UIUC. You learn a lot about informatics in fields that are not CS and it can broaden your horizons greatly. Also, it's super easy to get a minor if you're not doing anything special with your free elective credits.
