I am in my 2nd year of Computer Science with a focus on Web & App Dev and it is definitely difficult. Anyone who says it is easy is lying. What bothers me the most is that the more I learn, the more I feel like I don't know anything and I question how I could ever get a job in the area because I don't know enough. I spend all day studying and I realized good grades doesn't necessarily mean you know what you're doing. I also have a 9.0 average but it doesn't feel like I thought it would feel. I spend lots of time learning by myself. YouTube, StackOverflow, etc... I don't have an issue with self-study, I actually like it.

As a Senior in Computer Science, this is very accurate. Take Tim's advice to heart!

Tim is the guy who share all the experience with community very frankly. This is really helps me in lots of time. Thank you Tim.
The second camera angle is fine.

2:13 in just the 25 seconds afterwards you sum up the correct approach to a CS degree. Unfortunately, I relied on the CS program to learn and I feel like I haven’t really learned anything. I graduate in November with a BSCS and im struggling to even get an internship with the basic knowledge I have. I’m now going back and re-teaching myself everything I need to learn to get a job. Wish I had someone to actually share this information with me from the beginning, but oh well. Overall, thanks for putting this out there because I feel the education system fails a lot of people that dont realize they need to learn everything on their own. The education system is just for showmanship and to have an ornament degree on your wall or resume. Employers want real knowledge and experience.

Balance your workload, I cannot stress this enough. A very good point Tim. I've seen many examples of people not following this and they ultimately hurt themselves up. I'm currently in 5th semester of the CS degree, I had kept the right attitude till the 3rd semester. In the last semester I kinda got lenient with the stuff and at the end it made everything so hard for me. I needed to be remembered of this. Thank you so much buddy, best wishes to you.

I'll be starting my degree in Computer Science in January, I'm so glad my favorite programming YouTuber made a video on this! Thanks Tim!

[vincentpeterson]

Learning on your own is a definitely. In a few of my classes my professor didn't even teach us topics we would be tested on and have homework on, and just expected us to look it up and figure it out. Now working as an entry level software engineer, that is 80% of my job. Also, don't get stressed out because it's harder to learn when you are stressed.

Starting my first year seeing what works and what doesn’t appreciate the tips Tim keeping all these in mind!

[dorshreal]

Great video! I am currently studying as an Electric Engineering student and I relate to a lot of the advice you mention when studying during the year. It is very important to schedule your workload and be pragmatic of the time you have to succeed in really any engineering related discipline.

honestly its good to see you deliver the message from angle to angle by switching it in like every five minutes maybe and its just my opinion

[amirilifee]

Man, ur videos are just amazing. Been following you for 2-3 years since you had ~500k followers. Till now always finding something interesting in your videos. i watch every of them, watched a lot of your courses. So just keep it up and continue doing interesting videos. Waiting for the next videos!!!

[isaacegwu]

Tim always manages to give people what they need. Thanks Tim

[jimmynkgogo]

Thank you for the advice. I'm a first year Business IT student (in my second semester now). I started doing the things you mentioned in this video and my marks have increased. Thank you for this video, I will share it with my classmates as they always ask me how do I maintain my good marks

[chifuyu]

I am starting my university life as a cs student next sunday, and this video came in time ! Thank you tim!

[rachinter]

This is going to be damn useful....I'm gonna keep this in my favourites playlist until I start my degree.... thanks bro 💯❤️🔥👌

[crackwitz]

all good points, really.
they don't make you practice, not really. you have to do it yourself.
DO watch your time management. stress can kill you, so do what you can to prevent stress.
procrastinating is a sign of stress and anxiety, leading to more procrastination, leading to an actual anxiety disorder. find ways to break out of the loop.

[Raphael-bqfc]

very helpful as I'm starting next week. Thanks, Tim. The two cameras are good btw.

[droneguy]

Thanks Tim. I’m already halfway towards a computer science degree. I’m glad I already completed three of the programming courses just need to complete two more. Suppose to graduate July next year.

[KazesDemons]

I swear your videos track my life haha. I only just now enrolled in a CS degree! Thank you.

[sussysnail]

very meaningful advice! thank you so much, tim!
