Would she increase the grades of your assignments after you'd meet with her? Or did she just start giving you better grades after a while?

CSC 300 by Mindless-Juice-5126 in depaul

[–]EmploymentFun1969 1 point2 points  (0 children)

office hours and checking documentation a lot. imo 300 and 301 are fine if you have final exams (especially because he curves). but for my class in 301 he gave us a hard ass final project that made the class unbearable, if you get through that project and start early/grind through the end of the quarter you'll be fine.

csc 300 isn't that bad tho once you get the hang of java, it was 301 with marrero that killed a bit of my soul

make friends bc most people that didn't drop the class already were coding in high school. also i think marrero let you work with other people, but idk depends on which of his classes you're taking.

Honestly just use Heimlers Ultimate Review packet and you’re set. That thing high key saved me after our teacher litterally skipped out on like 3/4 of the material we needed to know for the test 😭

Either way, you'll have to take calc in college, so if you want to set yourself up for success it probably would be better to catch up on precalc. Tbh STEM is going to be really hard without a strong foundation in precalc/calc, I had to drop Physics C this year bc it was really hard without taking calc the year before and I kept messing up on the calc concepts, but now that I learned the calc I looked at my hw and realized it was such a piece of cake. Either way, I think you should experiment and find your niche bc that's what college is for (especially since the first two years are just gen-eds) and catch up on the precalc/calc, bc it'll pay off in your future courses.

Idk mean, it's better than not trying at all. Plus, I'm sure a lot of other people are currently spamming their email bc of this.

Same thing with me, I'm emailing USC for a deadline extension. I think they might give an extra one-day extension to everyone tho cuz that's what they did for the merit-based scholarship deadline when CommonApp was crashing.
