I’ve recently been admitted to 4 CSU’s which are:
Sac state
Sfsu
Csueb
Sonoma state
Denied from:
Sjsu
Still waiting for decision:
Chico state
Csu northridge
I was wondering which school would be the best for me. I got admitted to those 4 schools for computer science and I’m still trying to figure out if I should stick with computer science or if I should change my major. In the past, I’ve been lightly exposed to computer science. I took 2 short summer courses in the past, one being Python, and the other being Java and HTML. I forgot everything I learned in these 2 courses since they were a while ago so I’m basically back to being a computer science newbie with no knowledge about programming and coding. From what I remember, the courses weren’t ACTUAL classes, so we weren’t graded, assigned homework and projects, and we didn’t take tests and quizzes. It was a part of a kids summer camp, so the stuff we did in the courses were very basic. Overall, I enjoyed the python class more than the java & HTML class, but both weren’t too bad. As for my high school background, I did decent. I passed most of my classes, the only class that I failed was AP physics 1 which I got a D+ in. That caused me to hate physics with a passion, and I still do to this day.On top of that, I got a 2 on the ap exam. To make up for all the mess, I decided to take the SAT physics test and I got a 530. I’m a pretty motivated student, I just have a tendency to get left behind by everyone else in the class depending on the subject. For math, I would say I’m ok at it. I’m currently in calculus, and got a B in the first semester. I’m currently struggling right now in the 2nd semester but I am confident my grade will catch up in the 3 months of high school remaining.
A friend has told me that I don’t need any previous experience if I’m doing computer science at csueb, and I would like confirmation on that. Other than that, I don’t really know anything about these schools and I’m kind of lost. any help is appreciated, thanks!!!
