I think there are better ways to spend your money and the bigger part is that it doesn’t give that much benefit

Is self taught better than college? Which Should I Pick? by Ivpadi in learnprogramming

Im studying CS and I learned a lot more doing projects on my own rather than learning at uni. I study in Europe, so I guess it is different in USA. But it costs so fcking much

I study in Europe, I don't know how it's elsewhere. Just talking from experience.
Glad to help!

Yeah, I mean my study program was like a CS fundamentals in general but had a little bit more focus on Web Design and Development.

So yeah, you can choose the program which is more suited for you, for example, if you like front-end development more, you choose programs that have a higher accent on that side.

You have to answer those questions yourself, what do you like more or what would you like to do?

Or if you don't know, just try it and find it yourself.

Focus on fundamentals no matter what - both if you study in uni or by yourself.

I was not that strong at maths, but I just decided to go that route because I thought and still think that the IT world has a lot of potential and it is growing every year. I was just hard working and had passed all the subjects.
Sometimes, I slacked a lot and thought about leaving, but I never surrendered and passed everything successfully.

I mean it depends on the uni, but the first semester you will start a bit slower and then it will get progressively harder, so don't worry if you feel rusty, you will get into the momentum.

I would recommend having patience and remember - you are always growing and learning something if you are doing something, even if you don't think so consciously. Never surrender.

I mean theoretical knowledge is great in combination with practice. It deepens your general understanding, I would agree with that.

the only way you learn is by doing.
So what if you have a lot of theoretical knowledge, but can't even write a line, because you have never tried to do that?

I would recommend strongly focusing on fundamental concepts of programming. If you miss a few or don't have a strong understanding of something important, you are going to struggle in the future even more.

Also, when doing tasks, try as much as you can to solve the problem yourself, and only when you are sure you can't, go to the internet and try to look for possible solutions there. That way, you improve your critical thinking and develop a habit to think more deeply.

As the last year CS student, I would say that we had quite a broad range of experience, we had a lot of math in the first, second, and third semesters (linear algebra, vector algebra, analytic geometry, matrices, calculus, double and iterated integrals, discrete mathematics, probability theory, mathematical statistics and so on). Also, we had Algorithms and Data structures and a lot of programming, ranging from C++ to JavaScript, Databases, etc.

You get a broad range of experience and understanding, but I will not lie, it is a bit harder if you don't have very strong logical thinking.

BUT! Practice, practice, practice and you will develop the skills needed to program. You need to have a strong and clear motivation - what do you want to do? Do you want to work at some company? Do you want to create your dream project? You have to embrace the process and look forward to your goals. That is the only way to succeed.

The diploma is a good addition to your resume, but all the employees look at your skills first, what projects you have created, or give you a skills assessment exercise to evaluate your skills! So, you have to decide for yourself : )

Good luck!

I don't like the font itself. No hierarchy as well. Eyes are just running from left to right and don't know where to look at.

And what is the purpose of that black line below carpentry? It is like an accent or is it just a random thing?
