<p>How is the Computer Science major compared to other SUNY colleges?</p>
<p>Also: I'm entering senior year of HS this September. This May I scored a 5 on the APCS A exam and a 4 on the APUS History exam. Can I expect those to transfer?</p>
<p>I understand it has become quite competitive to get into SUNYs, especially Binghamton, these days. With a 1400 SAT (2090 total), a decent GPA (I don't know the exact right now, hovering around 90), nice extra-curricular and community activities (several clubs/was featured in Newsday for starting an environmental initiative and was recognized by the county supervisor), and a good essay, how, do you feel, are my chances?</p>
<p>Another question: what furniture is provided for students that dorm?</p>
<p>I can’t compare Binghamton CS to other SUNYs since I’ve never attended another SUNY, but I don’t have any complaints about CS at Binghamton. I haven’t had a CS teacher that was bad and I’ve enjoyed and learned a lot in all my CS classes. I’ve been disappointed by my teachers and classes in other subjects, but CS has been great.</p>
<p>Dorm rooms contain 1 lamp, 2 beds, 2 desks with built in lights, 2 dressers, and 2 small cabinet things that fit under the desk. Lighting is pretty bad, I would suggest bringing your own lights.</p>
<p>I got in to both Binghamton and Stony Brook CS with similar grades, but it’s supposedly been getting harder to get in now because of the recession.</p>
<p>The Comp Science Major is pretty strong I would say. Stony Brook might be a bit stronger.</p>
<p>I am unable to answer the AP Credit question or the furniture, but Bootes got that one. Sorry, I don’t know the answers.</p>
<p>And with those stats, its a solid match. It’s not getting THAT competitive that those stats would be turned down, especially with EC’s, GPA and good test scores.</p>
