    Hey C Squad! It's been a year since I uploaded this video and I'm still receiving some follow-up questions about studying computer science and getting additional resources. I'm so excited to let you know that I have recently partnered up with Brilliant. It's a platform that offers interactive courses across 60+ STEM subjects. I wish I had known about this platform when I was still a CS student because it would have helped me with my maths, science, and computer science courses! I've been trying out their data structures & algorithms class and it is so engaging, informative, and fun!✨
    I highly recommend trying out their platform for free with their 7-day trial: brilliant.sjv.io/cheryl_brilliant
    If you enjoy it as much as I do, you can get *20% off their annual subscription to Brilliant Premium!
    *Note: this offer is only available to the first 200 people who sign up using my link

    Omw...your computer science experience as a student is exactly what I went though on my first year, with zero experience. I wished I had known you then and watched this before even applying but then again just like you. I don't see myself in any other career field.

    Hi,but do u think it's possible to do computer science even though in high school u never had the chance to do any ICT related subjects...u don't have any knowledge/experience with it....

    • @CherylMoyo
      @CherylMoyo  2 года назад +2

      Depends on what you mean by no knowledge. If you at least know how to use a computer and you work hard, I think you’ll be just fine✨
      Also, make sure you check the requirements at the university you want to attend because for some universities, you need to have taken IT or Science to do Comp Sci

      ...and, yeah!I did see that some unis require u to atleast have done some ICT related subjects . Personal I only had the chance to know the basics about operating a computer/laptop ,although I've always craved for more knowledge on how to work/us computer/gadgets . "like u "I didn't know what career path I wanted to follow,but now I know that I want to major in tech ,and according to my research computer science and engineering are almost the some thing🙄(pls let me know if I'm wrong).....i know that I can do this! NO excuses 😏, anyways thanks again Cheryl ❤️🙌🏾
