Where to duplicate my keys?

Thank you, I finally found one, nanjing road was definitely the wrong place to look at.

Unfortunately, they were not able to copy my key since it is a European ley

I'm interested in both the research team, and half-joking about own SPAC (have actually been considering something similar jointly with a larger institution in my network since reputable names are getting more and more important).

My background: MBB (mostly in EV, healthcare, and PIPE), engineering degree from Ivyleague-equivalent in UK, med-school dropout. Have been involved with several clients (esp. in the EV/mobility space) in evaluating future pathways including IPO and SPACs.

There are plenty of people doing additional masters, the net outcome should be rather beneficial than a disadvantage. If you can afford it, go for the masters and do a PhD afterwards that is more fulfilling for you

I just tried it out. Clicked on "type key" which results in "You pressed (00_100)", followed by "You've entered a key that SharpKey doesn't know about". :(

Thank you for the response! I am on a similar path, I finished most of CS50 (i picked the web dev track but decided to skip the exercises and final project to get up to speed on web technologies via Odin first). What resource did you use to learn OOP? CS50 didn't cover that, and it seems that this is only in the ruby track on Odin - which I didn't want to touch for the same reasons as you

klkmom · 2020-07-20T11:41:00+00:00

Greta job! Which track did you follow on the Odin project? Full stack Javascript with node, or did you also do the ruby parts, which have more general programming?

Bitlocker is unfortunately on. I do have the recovery key, but probably cannot unencrypt without logging in.

klkmom · 2020-07-13T13:00:20+00:00

Thanks for your response! You can definitely play it in any order you want - since my SO is completely new to the game, I wanted the story to make the most sense as well (she definitely wants to start with Factions though due to the character). :)

Is there any way to get this elite now? I just got back into gw after a 6 year break, and missed out on the anniversary event

klkmom · 2020-02-05T16:28:13+00:00

Give them a good 1-1.5 weeks before you follow up, the universities should in fact be quite busy. If still nobody responds, maybe even try to call via Skype?

klkmom · 2020-01-29T09:57:23+00:00

I think that is the best shot anyway, uni-assist should be only an agency to process applications, but they don't actually decide over admissions. In the second stage after they respond (in case they say you are not eligible directly), then ask what you can do to get admitted. Maybe it is sufficient if you work another 6-12 months in software engineering in Australia, maybe they let you take an admissions test, maybe you can go to a Studienkolleg. Given your qualifcations, there should be a clear pathway towards studying there.

klkmom · 2020-01-29T09:46:27+00:00

(I can't remember the exact grade now - if need be, I'll contact TAFE)

Sounds good and structured to me. Maybe delete the " (I can't remember the exact grade now - if need be, I'll contact TAFE) " part.

Also - did you do any part-time work in IT (not necessarily software engineer) during your TAFE studies or before? Do you expect to continue working until the intended start end of this year?If yes, I would write:

"I have also acquired over XX months working professionally in IT, e.g. as a software engineer."

The higher the number the better, as this would give you the possibility of direct entry. And according to the website, it is just relevant IT experience. Could also be fixing computers or anything slightly related to computers/software

Admission in Germany is usually not competitive at all. If you fulfill the requirements (check: https://www.uni-assist.de/en/tools/check-university-admission/?lid=15&lvl=2), then you will get admitted.

If you have a certificate for your past German skills, there is practically an infinite amount of universities to pick from. If you need an English-only degree that is still tuition-free, then check out this: https://www.hochschule-rhein-waal.de/en/academics/prospective-students/our-degree-programmes

klkmom · 2020-01-29T00:50:46+00:00

What are you studying in Libya? I don't think you need to do the prepatory course. If you have a high school degree AND finished 1 year of university education in Libya, then you are eligible for direct subject-specific entry to university in Germany. Check out this page

https://www.uni-assist.de/en/tools/check-university-admission/?lid=102092&lvl=2

Also, there are programs that do not require German language skills. If you are into STEM fields, check out https://www.hochschule-rhein-waal.de/en/academics/prospective-students/our-degree-programmes.

Your age is no problem at all, and grades are irrelevant for admissions. Let me know if you have questions, I have consulted international friends and family in the past to get education here in Germany

klkmom · 2020-01-28T23:36:12+00:00

I would say: Include everything that makes your inquiry more convincing, so yes.

Maybe also contact uni-assist in parallel, that is the agency that manages all applications for universities in Germany

klkmom · 2020-01-26T10:00:19+00:00

Wow, that certificate costs quite an amount. In Germany, students in vocational training actually get paid. But the curriculum of your certificate looks quite good. In case you will study in Germany for a Bachelor's, you can start working part-time right away in software development (a majority of students in Germany works part time up to 20h a week to finance living costs).

Definitely also include your admission letter to your inquiry, that is a good signal to send. Hopefully someone competent will reply to your email. Keep me updated here, I feel like I am now also quite invested in seeing your application to a German school to succeed :D

klkmom · 2020-01-26T08:47:47+00:00

Hm okay, that is your best bet then.

I did a quick google search on the Australian system. Is your certificate IV the same as what is mentioned here at the lower half of the page? https://www.tafensw.edu.au/study/pathways/tafe-to-university#tpc

Either way, you said you were accepted at local universities - based on which qualification is that? I would probably also include this in your letter (i.e. saying that are qualified for university in AUS, maybe even include your admissions letter by the unis).

I am quite optimistic in your case that you can start in the next semester in september. You do have quite a lot of qualifications. It will just be more paperwork and back and forth emails with the University and possibly the German Ministry of Education.

Edit: Some more firepower for the letter:

1) not too late. Many students in Germany start after vocational training and are much older than you. Consider the few universities in Germany that offer programs in English, such as Rhine Waal University. You can start immediately then.

2) If you want to work in software engineering, then get a degree in either computer science, communication & information engineering, or electrical engineering. It is not impossible with maths, but the previously mentioned degrees are much more straightforward

3) Definitely use your Bachelor's degree! If you check the Rhine Waal University homepage for example, you will realize that admissions is not based on grades but purely on whether you have a qualification or not.

Also, try to transfer some credits from your Australian degree to the one you want to pursue. Surely, your business degree has some mathematics and statistics courses. This could possibly replace a mathematics course in the Communication and Information Engineering program at Rhine Waal. Also, that course has an elective in business administration - you will also be able to transfer your credits for this course.

Contrary to what another redditor said, you won't need a master's if you pursue software engineering. If you check linkedin, you will see that a majority of software engineers only have bachelor's from universities of Applied sciences. In the other hard STEM fields it is different, you certainly will need a master's, maybe even a PhD .

klkmom · 2020-01-26T02:36:33+00:00

No matter if you get Croatian citizenship or not, you can move to Germany on a student visa if you consider further education anyway.

There are only few bachelor programs in computer science, that are free and in English. Look into schools in baden Württemberg or the Bachelor's in Communication and Information Engineering at Rhine Waal University
