      ​@@JoshBeasleyHello. Please help with your advice. I am interested in programming, I love technology, Linux. And now my father says that they can help me get a degree in Computer Science. But some say that this education is useless. I remember your video in which you said that CS it's a good education but it's been a while since that time. Please tell me what you think about it now. thank you

    I graduated with a mathematics degree and I must say I regret going to college and receiving my degree because I was easily able to pass my classes during covid semesters with the help of tutors for exams and copying exam solutions online. When classes were held in person I failed one class each semester with the exception of semester but that was a repeat class with the same professor so i wouldn’t necessarily count that. I have suffered from thought suppression since I was a kid and it didn’t necessarily interfere with my studies until senior year of high school and it still continues today. Every time I learned information and processed the material visually, my mind also thinks about scenarios where I forget what I’m visualizing and I perform a rebound effect and my mind alternates back and forth to visualizing and forgetting. It’s one of the main reasons why I had bad grades and if classes were held in person I guarantee you I would have never finished college unless I had to take one hard class per semester and mix it with an elective or just take one math class alone which would then make me feel dumb and isolated from other students who graduated early. Hell I couldn’t imagine completing a CS degree with the attention problems I have today.

The reason for me is because one I am not great at being self taught, so it forced me to learn a lot of the stuff, and a CS degree gives you a foundation in data structures, algorithms, databases, math, and theory, which employers do consider, and you will have projects to show what you did to employers. I just graduated and I already had interviews for a security automation position, and technical challenge. So yes it is definelty worth it, if you are willing to put it in the work (Cyber security was my concentration for my degree). I would also recommend looking at certs as well.
