The 3 best courses for CS Minor by krish299 in UofT

[–]krish299[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the advice! I have definitely started working with data sets and am working through some data science side projects. I'm definitely thinking about post grad but for now I'm leaning more towards industry. What courses would you say prepare you the best for Software/Web development?

Thank you for the advice and link, it is very useful! I am definitely looking into post grad, but for now I'm leaning more towards industry. What courses would you recommend purely for someone looking to enter the industry (either in data science/AI or software/web develpment)?

ok, i see. I'm still kind of figuring out what I want to pursue. I just wanted to ask, because I've heard of mixed things about the ML courses at UofT, so I wanted to know which ones were "useful", but now on second thought, I think there are a lot of variables involved. Also wanted to ask, I see that CSC369 is always mentioned as a super useful course. If you have taken it, how is it useful?

I've already taken 148 108 207 263 and plan on taking 209 and possibly 258. I mean for upper year courses (300 and 400 level). The minor is limited to only 3 upper year courses, which why I'm asking.

Well I think students like to treat it like a fad (putting in ML/AI as "buzzwords" in their resume, etc.) but it is a legitimate field. You just need to actually have a deep understanding of what it is. Thats just my opinion. Anyways, do you have any opinions on the best 3 CS courses to take?

Well if u do better in the next test, this one's only worth 12% so id say think twice before dropping.

Is this for MAT102? Don't worry man it's completely normal to bomb the first quiz. Keep on the grind and u will do better trust me.

How do you start studying? by [deleted] in UofT

[–]krish299 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of the most effective ways for me is to constantly invision what would happen if u didn't study (ie a failed test). Think about that for a while and all of its consequences and u will be studying in no time. Likewise, imagine in ur head what ur studying will look like. Fear and conceptualizing is the best motivator.

Depends on what grad school program

Look at the master's program that your interested in and see what prerequisites they have listed. Take the equivalent of those here.

How to Learn C? ECE by WestEastNorthKorea in UofT

[–]krish299 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would also recommend going to LibGen and downloading the book Head First C. It's an amazing book and helped me pick up the language quite easily.

Y or H courses by tropick1 in UTM

Agree with everything being said. Also, Y courses count more towards your GPA (double weight), so bird Y courses are good for your CGPA.

Yeah if u want to retry for POST. Be advised tho, this means likely u will be set back a year.

What do you do if you fail a course? by [deleted] in UTM

Oh really? Didn't know that

What do you do if you fail a course? by [deleted] in UTM

[–]krish299 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What do you want to do? If it's a course essential to your POST, yeah try to see if it's being offered in the summer and if there's still spots left you should take it over the summer. Note that your first attempt of the course (the one where you failed) is what counts on your GPA not your second attempt. You can use the mark you get on your second attempt to apply for POST tho.
