Computer Science
At 11:33 my final AP test was over and that means that there are no more high stress tests, finally! These high stress level tests make me feel as though my brain is going to explode. AP tests suck horribly and I’m extremely happy that they’re all over; now I can focus on my other school work. NOT! Since these AP tests are over the curriculum in the classes has decreased in strenuous studying for instance in Physics we’re only working on projects while in AP Lit were reading “100 Years of Solitude”. The major I’m going into at UMD, which I posted earlier, is computer engineering. I found a great website with a teacher from Harvard who teaches computer science; so I think I’m going to watch all of his lectures before my first computer science class next year. I would much rather learn about computers than take AP tests or any class at all.
For those of you interested in computer programming I suggest you visit his site and maybe do what I’m going to do, here it is, http://academicearth.org/courses/introduction-to-computer-science-i. From this website you can basically complete an entire semester of computer programming from a professor at Harvard; how sweet is that! I hope to take a lot of information from this guy and hope that this betters my future career.
The professor is a pretty good teacher and tries to make his lectures fun, so far I only watched his first two about binary code and algorithms. These lectures were interesting and I intend on watching all 32 of them and increasing my knowledge in the field of computer programming.
Thank you aaron I will have to check this out. I am going to major in Computer Science at UWEC. Why didn't you tell me about this before its sounds interesting.
