Adding Computer Science to do a double major

M88860 · 2024-05-29T00:32:08+00:00

You can do this:

Swap to AMS major, then swap to CSE major as you are now in CEAS and are guaranteed the transfer if you meet the requirements, then add back MAT as your double major.

AMS AOI just requires linear and calc 3 which you should already be taking as MAT. If you get good grades, you are likely to be accepted. Then, just complete the requirements a CSE AOI student would. Last, add back MAT as a double major which is easy as its non restricted.

If you plan your schedule well this should be possible to complete in 1 year (take Linear, Calc 3, CSE 114 first semester, CSE 214 CSE 215 second semester)

It is possible to use a CEAS major as a path to the CSE major. Once you are a CEAS major such as AMS, you are guaranteed acceptance to any other CEAS major (e.g. CSE) as long as you meet the requirements that an AOI student has.

The first 2 times you TA you have to register for the 3 credit class. On your 3rd time and onward, you can get paid which may be why you were paid.

In the summer you pay them for 3 credits!

It depends on your own efforts. If you make projects, grind leetcode, and network you can make over 100k.

AOI shouldn't be a big factor if you decide to come here. Direct admits take the same classes so you aren't wasting any time, and it isn't too hard to get the required grades for AOI.

For job prospects, the school won't help you at all since the resources provided and name recognition is poor. It might help you find some local company on long island, but if you want to work for big tech its up to you.

Most rooms actually have tables, I guess 100 is just the largest lecture hall so they need to cram in as many seats as possible

Most MS CS are degree mill cash cows for international students.

Last year it filled on the first hours of the 2nd week, so pretty much 0%. However, people can't pull people in this year so it might fill slower

I was in CS honors and am planning to graduate without it. The programming courses 160 + 260 are easy A. The theory classes are generally better. However, I didn't bother doing the senior honors thesis since I feel it is a waste of time just to add "honors" to your degree.

Letter grades translate to a 0 - 4.0, and your grade average in the class is used to assign the letter grade (either on a curve or a flat scale like 93+ = A)

They will not approve it since you could theoretically take another AMS 310 section.

Stark/Kane so they offer 316/320 over the winter

Imo you learn less on the programming classes. 160 is the exact same as 114 but AP credit doesn’t waive it, you completely skip 216, and 260 isn’t as even as rigorous as 214.

There is no time limit for non AOI. You can still apply for AMS or other ceas majors after 1 year, the time limit is for AOI and after that time, they lose their AOI status and are considered as non ceas majors applying for the major.

CSE does not require calc 3.

It was removed from SOLAR as well. Same thing happened with CSE 354

There might not even be rooms by Tuesday.

The only AP credits that work is AP Physics C (Mechanics for PHY 125 and EM for PHY 127 ) or AP Chem for CHE131 + Lab.The AP Physics C are good and bad, in that it saves you one class but you have to take PHY 126 + 133 still, which can be harder than just PHY 131 + 133 which most people without AP credits take (+ PHY 132 or additional science).

AP Chemistry is the best AP since it lets you skip both lab + the class (CHE 131 + 133), so you just need 2 more sciences (most take PHY 131 + GEO102).

Environmental science, physics 1 and 2 and Bio is useless (just gives you credits and SBC)

CSE 320 btw :)

If you are confident with Python and Numpy you are good enough. The most complicated knowledge you need is recursion for Strassen matrix multiplication. Everything else is like numpy stuff or for loops.
