I am starting a BS in computer science in august. I want to start preparing by finding some useful resources.
During my first bachelors, i used sites like quizlet. Is there anything similar to that for computer science? What websites, and resources do you use to study for computer science assignments, and exams.
Thanks!
CS isn’t really a subject that lends itself to studying - you learn by doing. At school, homework and projects are where you will probably learn 90% of what you actually remember.
There are a lot of good sites for picking up new languages or getting a feel for CS - I personally would recommend going with Python on codeacademy if you must. As far as references, there are tons of them, and every language and subject has different ones. Google is your friend and usually gets those easily as needed.
That said, there isn’t too much you can do in just a month or so, and sometimes you can even pick up bad habits if you aren’t careful. I would recommend mostly waiting until you get to school for that reason. As mentioned, getting a feel for CS on codeacademy is not a bad idea if you really feel antsy.

But seriously, the best way to learn/study is by doing - whether it is writing code, or designing an algorithm or proving its correctness. That said, course notes and practice quizzes/tests can be extremely helpful, but if that is insufficient, Wikipedia or other websites can also be helpful (or course notes from other universities).
