  • Finally a story from a student who wasnt a coding prodigy, or a maths genius blitzing through his major like butter. Ive seen so many of these other stories which have people speedrun to internships and somehow graduate flawlessly with a 4.0 all while making their own semi-professional full stack app. Glad theres a realistic experience of the average compsci student on display now. I think your story is alot more encouraging than those prodigies who 90percent of us cant even relate to. At least students who look at this know that its ok not to be hyper successful at first. Understanding the struggles that come with learning leaves you much more well off to deal with tougher challenges in the future. All the best!!

    dude your story telling abilities are lowkey really good. like i was dead focused the entire time and really enjoyed listening to your coding journey. 👍

    I am also graduating from a CS major as well. These 4 years of studies was harsh and tough, didn't end up to get a first-class honor, but still be proud of myself not giving up along the way. Its indeed amazing how all these works can change a person's life.

    For anyone that is curious it's "nought" not "not". We don't use it to replace zero all the time. Common usage is "noughts and crosses" or tic tac toe as you call it and nought to 60 when talking about MPH speed. For scores we typically use "nil" in replace of 0.

    I just graduated from a CS major, and after 5 long years (bachelors + masters) I couldn’t relate more to your video. Your academic path is scarily equal to mine, and you just unlocked trauma that I thought I had buried deep down! I wish I had seen a video like this 5 years ago, as it was extremely inspiring. Thanks for your honesty, and best of luck!
  • @VerbalVantage
    In my second year of CS right now and I’m feeling the heat with discrete, logic in programming, circuits, and c/c++/prolog/scheme class. It’s tough right now but this video reminded me to not give up. Thanks for sharing your journey.

    Lesson 1: Just start Lesson 2: Work hard to learn code Lesson 3: Concepts and topics build on one another so take your required classes as fast as possible, and back to back Lesson 4:Work smarter, not harder Lesson 5: Master the basics (math and compiter science) Lesson 6: Things worth having don't come easily Lesson 7: Come to your own conclusion Lesson 8: Doing is the way to learn
  • @tcefrep
    I clicked on the video cuz I thought I could get a dedree in 11 minutes 🤦
  • @spicyjuan1499
    This is really inspiring honestly, I really appreciate the segment where you tell us about coming to our own conclusions since it's what worries me and stresses me out about taking this path
  • @BlakeT87
    Thanks for sharing your journey Kevin - I'm 36 years old and beginning my journey to BSCS - and I appreciate the honesty about the challenges and lessons learned through your eyes!
  • @andrewdddo
    Editing is top notch man! Haha so creative
  • Thank you so much for this video! I was considering going back to school for computer science and you helped me to see it's not so bad and I shouldn't be scared.
  • @dubzy4485
    Going into my first year of CS! The encouragement from this video is unreal thank you 🙏
  • @GermanBarrabia
    Very well edited sir. And I do procrastinate when I'm crunching thoughts thru my mind on how code would look like, and every each time I always get to the same conclusion... Doing is better than thinking about doing it!
  • @WasReloading
    Needed this. I am second semester in and OOP is not an easy topic for me. Definitely always intimidating when some people have prior experience and breeze through. Through passion and hard work I hope to get there 💪
  • @g0nk_droid
    I'm about to go back at 30 to get my BS in Software Dev and this is really nice to hear. I'm no tech prodigy but I know a thing or two and learning to code seems really daunting but also interesting and exciting. Glad to see the perspective of a more typical person I can relate to without having done coding and such from the age of 12
  • @staz8671
    So relatable. I took a break from coding modules last year and now data structures are messing with my life. Solid advice on doing them as fast as possible and back to back 👌🏽. Wish I knew this sooner
  • @robertjr8205
    Man, my first programming course sucked. All these dudes were saying how they were already familiar with lower level languages and all that crap. We we learning c++. Some were saying “yea I been coding since I was 10 and already made my own games and google extensions” all that crap. It was demoralizing and made me feel like I shouldn’t even be there. Also my professor was a complete POS. My code worked but if he didn’t like it, he would tell you the worst way he possibly can while remaining under school guidelines. Hated him and he made me feel like I shouldn’t to computer science. Now I’m over here debating to go CS or EE. Also, what I like about this video is that you showed you struggled. I’m not happy you struggled haha but relieved knowing that I’m not the only one who will. I see a lot of similar videos out here where others were thriving in their cs classes and getting straight As and saying it wasn’t too difficult. it gives me hope since I’m currently prepping myself over summer to take discrete structures and data structures which are the only classes I need for transfer!
