      Hey guys I’ve got some really great news to share with you, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died on a cross and resurrected on the third day so you may all have eternal life. If you believe and repent of your sins and put your faith and trust in Him as you would a parachute jumping off a plane at 25000 feet up in the air, He will give you eternal life in heaven as a free gift and I promise you, He will change your life forever as He did mine. He is the ONLY way to heaven and He loves you all. Please think deeply about this with urgency because this is your eternal life and soul, you don’t know when you could die, meaning you could die at any moment, so please consider this with all your heart. If anyone tells you that Jesus isn’t the only way, they are lying to you and they don’t care about your future. Thx for reading.

    Appreciate the advice! Currently in community college studying cyber security, computer science, and math and looking at UCSD as one of the schools to transfer to. You're videos are giving me a great look at what it's like.

      I'm looking at starting at a community college for the first two years of a cybersecurity degree before transferring to a university. How was the community college side of it? Are the initial classes challenging yet possible? My experience with community college was accommodating. Did they work with you in regards to a full time/part time job? And was any of it online. I'm trying to do as much online as possible.

      @@josh9508 Hey! I actually just graduated from my program this spring… The classes, though challenging, we’re definitely doable and the skills I learned are things that are actually applicable in industry. I also did the majority of my classes online, but if you can, it definitely is nice to be in person for hardware related classes. My professor is definitely the reason I’m where I’m at now… he let me tutor for all of the classes in the program as a part time job and also was always recommending positions/internships to me and my classmates. Was able to get positions at a national laboratory doing research, one at NASA, and now an internship at Meta. Community College is definitely what you make of it… if you’re willing to actually learn the skills (not just to get the grade) and network with your teachers and peers, you will do great! Hope that helps a bit and good luck!

      Hi, I’m currently still in high school and am planning on majoring in CS in a year or so. I’ve participated in hackathons and stuff but haven’t really gotten into the backends of websites or code. Do you have any tips on what I should do to prepare for college? Thanks!

    Starting early is soo important! I watch people I know start assignments the week of, lose all their sleep and wonder why they didn't do well. Also the joining clubs one - I wish I went to club events in my first year it would've been so helpful later on.
    Great video man.
