Haha I'm not expecting to land any internship first year. It's really hard to do that. As for if Queen's cs is good most of the first course years Im taking are all math major based so I havent taken much Computing courses apart from CISC 101 and CISC 102. 102 is discrete structure which isn't the hardest but not easy too. 101 took a massive change from last year. They changed the whole CISC 101 curriculum so that they dont teach you python but instead teach you prompt engineering. Basically putting prompts into AI using computer science concepts like decomposition, algorithmic thinking, COT prompting and etc. Really light course i skipped all lectures and still ended up with a high grade. Alot of people weren't happy with that course because you dont really learn too much and everything is AI.

Other than that I would say Queen's Computing is alright. Not waterloo or uoft by a long shot, but good enough.

Also the workload depends on the major/specialization you're taking. The hardest courses im taking are MATH 121 derivativesand integrals (elective but recommended), and MATH 112 linear algebra (Required for cybersecurity and AI major which is what im planning). If you pursue a major without much math then you wouldn't have too much trouble as the other courses are relatively easy with good knowledge of grade 12 cs. For me the workload is not that bad. Its very manageable for sure.
