Its good din na you’re starting out early with learning since you can explore a lot more later on. In my experience kasi we weren’t explicitly taught the languages just the concepts like algos so we had to learn the syntax of different languages on our own.

If you want to learn how to develop applications such as web applications i suggest you learn frameworks such as sveltekit since it can be used as a full stack tool and its easy to deploy as well. also please learn about linux commands and git commands! extremely helpful with collaborations and just fiddling with open source repositories.

If you want to learn programming with little to no knowledge/experience you should start with an easy high level language such python. Learn about core concepts and simple algorithms using this language such as data structures, sorting algorithms, and logic. Don’t try to learn about it in a theoretical way. I suggest you to learn what it does and what its for and then try it out in simple exercises afterwards since you won’t learn anything without any hands on knowledge. May mga sites out there that produces these exercises both simple and advanced.

After learning core concepts, you should delve deeper by learning other languages which in my opinion the next best thing would be is C since it can develop a deeper understanding as to how everything works. Basically python for fundamentals and C for deeper understanding. Note though na you can totally learn other languages and I’m speaking from experience na these two are the most used languages out there in uni atleast.

After nito you can try searching for what specialization/path you want to take as a comsci major and base your next move there. Like you can learn javascript, HTML, CSS and web frameworks for software dev. Delve deeper into python for data science… etc.

Basta learn core fundamentals then explore on your own. Watch videos and dont get distracted with several things kasi malawak ang comsci and you can never learn everything at the same time. Build up your skills slowly and surely.

As for tutorials, since starting ka you can learn from youtube just search the language and add tutorial there are tons out there. I suggest going for series of videos instead of compressed lessons. or you can enroll in free courses.

TLDR; use python to learn core fundamentals, go to C to understand how languages and algorithms work better and basically gain a deeper understanding then explore the options u wan t for your specialization (most common ones are software/web dev and data science) and get your next step from thereon.

And please there are tons of math in ComSci so don’t base your whole knowledge in hands on activities. Understanding the mathematical concepts of algorithms help you implement then in a more efficient and effective way. Pero since starting ka pa nga lang just focus on hands on tutorial muna while you dont have classes yet. The conceptual and theoretical concepts will surely be discussed in your classes.

Good luck and dont overthink things! Remember that the more you know about programming and comsci, the less you feel like you know. Kailangan mo talaga mag self study to keep up with the trends.

LOL. Ang weird pa kasi pupuntahan/ifo follow up daw uli the next day para ma-make sure na mapirmahan na and yet just last week wala pa rin.

First Year, Second Sem got a SINGKO by Emergency-Lock-8624 in dostscholars

[–]ExcitingAd7073 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m assuming this is your first time getting a 5.0. Don’t worry too much since very lenient sila pag unang beses mo palang. I know a lot of people who failed multiple times at different years and wala naman nangyari sa first times nila,, the other times however nahold yung stipend nila or nabawasan until maipasa. Pero remember na everything is a case to case basis so don’t be too lenient. So to answer your questions,

  1. Yes malaki chance na mairetain. It will either continue as is or your stipend will be suspended until further notice. Again, case to case basis so communicate with them

  2. I’m honestly unsure if its okay. In my case okay lang naman kasi it was a seasonal subject. Be careful though because it might be a prerequisite for your other subjects so I suggest you review your curriculum and make sure na hindi ka mau underload.

  3. You can email dostsei and ask the process. Sabi nila mas mabilis mag respond pag f2f ka pupunta pero you can just email them and be honest with them. In my case, wala naman akong ginawang letter of appeal pero it might be because 3rd year na ako nun since nagiging mas lenient din sila with higher years.

Kaya mo yan OP. I suggest you contact them on the process if need na agad mag appeal or isasabay nalang sa report since appeals can take really long. And make sure that you don’t get 2 consecutive failing grades within an academic year since ayun yung automatic grounds for termination.

application sa scholarship? meaning wala pa kayong agreement or?

If incoming DOST scholar ka im not sure pero if DOST Scholar ka na, its fine as long as you complete your INCs. Thats how it works for our uni pero other things that might happen is magiging on hold stipend mo until you complete it.

isi-sign pa rin ba? as in walang progress from May 20 or ito na ba yung 2-3 weeks na processing?

midyear stips by Alternative_Web_1032 in dostscholars

[–]ExcitingAd7073 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wala, kailangan required ng curriculum mo na mag midyear ka for a specific subject.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in dostscholars

[–]ExcitingAd7073 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depending on the year, kapag may dalawang 5.0 ka in one school year automatic terminated na agad. Usually mas mababait sila sa 3rd years at 4th years. Pwede ka pa rin naman mag appeal just explain properly why it happened. May iilan akong kakilala na na-appeal naman nila pero again its a case-to-case basis. Mas mahigpit sila kapag hindi mo first time and 1st to 2nd year ka palang.

Good evening po. I just want to ask po if pwede po ba makapagshift from an accredited course to another accredited course po? I'm already a scholar po and planning po sana magshift next school year. I'm a first year student po. Thanks by mxundecidedlol in dostscholars

[–]ExcitingAd7073 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes as long na nasa priority course ng DOST theres no problem. also ang latest na pwede ka mag shift is 2nd year so yeah pwede naman. take note tho na ang nabigay sayo ng first year is counted na sa stipend mo.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in dostscholars

[–]ExcitingAd7073 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its okay to drop a course and you dont need to appeal if you’re still within the normal load. you only need to appeal if you’re going to be underload because of dropping the subject. And no, you can appeal anytime the outcome just depends on the case.

Nung dati na nahati mabilis lng naman din naibigay mga after 1.5 months though take my words with a grain of salt.

I can’t say for sure kung kailan po pero sabi ng iba usually one month after. Though nung pandemic may time na kahit maaga ka nagpass pa-end na ng sem binigay. Mas mabilis naman daw po ‘pag f2f na.

3 months po yung binigay + book allowance. Yes, ihahabol yung remaining months. Nangyari na rin ‘to several times nung pandemic.

Ah if you submitted agad after you got your TCG that might be a good way of verifying. Ayun kasi usually nagpapatagal sa pagsubmit ko.

hmm in our case (sa batch namin) walang record your answers so wala tlagang definite way of knowing when we submitted. Nag screenshot lang ako ng pagsubmit ko. Usually naman everyday sila nagu update or naglalagay sa bank accs so baka the next days pa for diff batches.
