kung tight budget kayo men , grabe nagsayang lng kayo ng pera, oras at pagod. biruin mo magsshift kalang din pala after ng sem. sayang lang pinang tuition nyo , uniform , pamasahe at pagod mo. tapos baka di mo pa mapacredit lahat ng subjects mo sa lilipatan mo.
 
Kaso ang mangyayari nyan pag nagshift ka pagdating ng 2nd sem mgging irregular student ka nun or kung ayaw mo mag irreg student pwede naman kaso may maiiwanan kang subject ng ECE na pang 1st sem. kasi syempre hndi parehas curriculum ng computer engineering sa ECE. magcconflict ka subjects nyan men.
 
Ou may subjects ka na maccredit from computer engineering to ECE pero may subject ka rin na wasted pag wala sa curriculum ng ECE. tapos yung mga nasa curriculum ng ECE na pang 1st sem na hndi mo ntake ayun yung mgging pending subjects mo. tapos pre requisite pa ng 2nd semister subject. GG kana nun :D magiging irreg kana nun.

sana lang wala pang major subject sa inyo this sem, kasi samin meron na agad e :D
 
Oo nga po, kaso wala ng magagawa eh. Hindi ko naman po kayang magrisk na next year na lang mag-aral sa school na gusto ko with ECE dahil old curriculum graduate ako. Kahit ngayon, hindi din naman lahat ng school tumatanggap ng student like me, so grab the chance na lang na may school na tumanggap sakin this year.

Napag-isipan naman po namin ng maigi to, lalo na yung about sa tuition. It's either mag-aral ako ngayon with course na hindi ko gusto then shift next year, or mag-aral ng 2 years as a senior high school. Mas malaki ang gastos kung babalik pa ako ng high school, di ba?
 
Hi mga kaPHC!

Next month, papasok na po ako as a freshman college student taking up bscpe. Honestly, html and css lang ang alam ko as of now, kaya gusto ko po sana mag-advance study para ready at confident ako sa pasukan. May isasuggest po ba kayong dapat kong pag-aralan, and resources for beginners?

Thanks a bunch po 😊

Edit: I meant yung mga topics (anything regarding cpe) for 1st year-1st sem na pwede ko pong iadvance study. Hindi ko naman po kayang aralin ngayon yung mga topics na pang-2nd year or later pa. Too soon for that!

One thing you should know that having a BS Computer Science or BS Computer Engineering does not equate being good at software development (or software engineer)

Being good at software development (or software engineer) does not mean you'd be good both at the frontend and backend. You can be a good software developer with no degree or have a degree and be good at both. The analogy is like being good at boxing does not mean you are good at taekwondo. Apples and oranges.

You wrote you only know html and css. Don't belittle that. I know a bunch of BSCS graduates who know nothing about simple webpage creation. I have plenty of anecdotal evidence.

I took BSCS and BSCE (didn't finish this one) but it's really all about MATH, LOGIC, PHYSICS, and CIRCUITRY (at some extent). In fact you still have to take the other crap subjects that you won't need for your work like chemistry and sociology. I call them crap because you won't use them if your goal is to be a programmer but if the job you're aiming for specifically needs these knowledge, then take them.

My best advice in school:
  • Study and pass your exams. There's no need to get A's.
  • Understand the data structures and algorithms
  • Understand the logic and physics behind each topic

My best advice outside school:
  • Learn to program with JavaScript, Go, Rust
  • Learn how to write and speak English well. Enunciation is power. I'd like you to at least try applying for a call center job for experience
  • Network with smart people
  • Network with business minded people
  • Study machine learning and IoT

Thank you so much po for the lecture. It's really helpful. Now I know what to expect sa pasukan 😊
 
Second year CpE ako from Cavite State University. C# at SQL ang tinuro samin, payo lang focus ka sa MATH like calculus 1 at calculus 2 dagdag mo si Physics na puno din ng formula at calculation ;) goodluck
 
Here's what I know about Calculus in college when I took BSCE in the US. I took Calculus 1, 2, 3, and 4 and got A's, A'-s, and B's (that means I was good):

The problem is as a senior software engineer and lead engineer, calculus is RARELY used. I've worked with multiple domains and it rarely touched. Probably I see some usage of it in the field of machine learning but if you are doing the usual business-oriented work, you'll see calculus being used like almost non-existent.

So even though I was good in calculus in college, that was WAS. You ask me now, I only understand the principles but ask me to find the derivative and area of something, well, my memories are in bad shape. I won't even care to learn it now for my current programming work.

Most of the stuff you'll learn in college is a waste to be honest. I haven't been in a job interview for software development where they ask you anything about any higher level math.
 
mag prepare ka about electronics, circuits, calculus, physics, html/css/javascript, any programming language (Depends on your curriculum), strength/dynamics/statics, probability stat. , matlab, marami pa haha :ROFLMAO: alam ko nag bago na ang curriculum nyo maraming natanggal at may mga pinag sama hindi ko sure. CpE Graduate here 👨‍🎓
 
actually kahit anong galling mo sa mga yan technically, magagamit mo lang yan pag dating ng mga capstone projects dahil during academics walang wala yung technical skills mo dahil more on academics ang pag gragrade such as quizzes, activities, etc..
 
tama naman yung sinasabi nila, dapat may goal ka kung baket CpE ang kukunin mo.
gusto mo ba mas challenging? go for CpE.
pero kung ayaw mo ng pahirapan sarili mo at gusto mo maging programmer or network , sys. admin , etc.
mas ok kung kunin mo is I.T or CS
check mo narin kung anong available Track Elective's for CpE ang inooffer ng school na papasukan mo.
Samin nung time ko ang available is Robotics, Embedded System, System Administrator at sa Networks. hindi ko sure ngayon hindi pa ako nakaka visit sa school
