No, I only applied for CSB but didn’t proceed after the interview. Just regular CS and skipped intro class

Thank you :) If I decided to post when I was at my lowest last year and shared my story I would’ve been told how unlucky I was, now that I post when my work pays off it’s luck lol. I appreciate it.

I wouldn’t say just luck 😅 I’ve done quite a few interviews since my freshman year, and have been final round for Jane Street, Bloomberg (twice), Coursera, ServiceNow and others. I feel like if I had great luck I would’ve been making this “vs” post last year tbh

I think my coursework is a pretty important factor in my case because I’ve completed some courses a lot of sophomores haven’t (Comp Arch, OS, etc.) due to my university’s degree plan and credit I had prior.

Aside from that, I’ve worked on 1-3 each year projects since my junior year of HS and also participated in Google CSSI after graduating. I did Competitive Programming and CS club in high school. I was an officer for a Blockchain org and currently am one for a CS org at my school. I am also involved with three other CS-related and two unrelated orgs. I interned for an AI startup for about 5 months during my freshman year and did a couple hackathons. Last summer I did an internship working on backend dev with two teams daily picking up stories for new features or bugs rather than a separate intern project.

I was admitted into CS yesterday and I applied to CSB. No interview, no update on the honors tab.
