#

Same bro but in my country some publics for medicine cost like 8000 usd

#

the top one to be exact

#

also cs in my country isn’t even regarded as competitive

violet fable
#

as in like, for people only applying to indian unis, going to a private indian uni is assumed as if the person couldn't make it to the top ranked unis which are all public

vital mortar
#

Nah like private Unis in India are looked down upon

violet fable
#

IIT/IIM/IISc/IIIT are all public and sought after because they rank high, job placements in either management consulting/tech

vital mortar
violet fable
#

yeah

vital mortar
#

back in mY dAyS I wAs JEE tOPPeR

#

avg Indian dads say that to my Indian friends

violet fable
#

competition comes firstly from the sheer number of people taking the exam, you could have around like 10 million people sitting one exam for 50 computer science spots at IIT bombay

#

and then from the difficulty of the entrance exam itself

#

there's a running joke amongst JEE students that they should have started preparing for the test once they got into middle school

#

or perhaps even earlier

vital mortar
#

My close friend actually told me her dad was gonna make her study for the JEE and she was legit in y11 with me doing gcses I think the programs are so vastly different that it’s too late to prep for it

violet fable
#

the sad part is that most JEE toppers transfer out to MIT 💀

tawny valley
#

wth is jee trooper

vital mortar
violet fable
vital mortar
#

He also won a silver at the astronomy olympisd

violet fable
#

but you know, percentiles for JEE can go up to 10 digits

vital mortar
violet fable
#

and often, 99.8 percentile is not enough to get CS at IIT bombay

vital mortar
#

I don’t think that’s possible

vital mortar
#

even a level students can’t do the JEE bruh

tawny valley
#

Seems easier to just learn english and go to University of Amsterdam or something

#

than do all this shit

#

but idrk shit about the indian education system

violet fable
#

you kinda have to have a working knowledge of year1/2 material for chemistry, physics and math, all three

violet fable
#

the medicine applicants have it worse

vital mortar
tawny valley
#

Why don't they just go to cheap well known international schools instead of fighting all this competition?

vital mortar
#

there’s a YouTuber who didn’t score well even on cbse

#

He went to uni of Georgia

tawny valley
#

Surely these kids could get into ETH Zurich or University of Amsterdam

vital mortar
#

Got into google

#

And is making vids

#

isn’t he Singh in the USA

#

Indian education system rankings and toxicity doesn’t equate to success but people just take the hard way

violet fable
vital mortar
#

Cuz the living expenses

tawny valley
#

If you can get a working permit

vital mortar
tawny valley
#

Even with the crazy living expenses it is not more than a 10th of the cost of a top American school.

violet fable
#

but as much as the indian uni system is praised for rigor and competition for the best students, it's not all perfect

tawny valley
vital mortar
#

In Zurich a McDonald’s mcchicken is like 20

violet fable
#

there's institutional discrimination over caste and income status for entrance exams

vital mortar
tawny valley
#

and eating out is uncommon

#

food is very expensive in zurich

#

but housing is similar to American cities

violet fable
tawny valley
#
The most expensive city on the list is Zurich, Switzerland, where a Big Mac costs $6.89 USD```
violet fable
#

it's like 1.8 usd in india

vital mortar
#

seems ok then

#

how hard is it to get the working permit thing u talked about

tawny valley
#

Now housing in Zurich is bad by european standards but normal by american standards

tawny valley
#

as an indian idk

violet fable
#

I think encrypted is singaporean

tawny valley
#

Oh as a singaporean student it should be no problem

#

maybe just long wait

#

because of the quota

vital mortar
violet fable
#

what about american students

vital mortar
#

I’m Egyptian living in Qatar

violet fable
#

oh

vital mortar
#

Qatar is pretty much like Singapore tbh

#

And Dubai too

#

u have like people from everywhere

tawny valley
vital mortar
#

so u get immersed in other cultures

violet fable
vital mortar
tawny valley
#

but does not matter since cost is so much cheaper than american uni

#

even with crazy food and housing

vital mortar
#

I was gonna apply but didn’t know if their courses were even taught in English

tawny valley
#

They admit everyone who gets past a certain score on the entrance exam

violet fable
#

yeh

tawny valley
#

Which is not very hard

vital mortar
violet fable
#

for EPFL, it's french i think

#

ETH Zurich, german

violet fable
tawny valley
#

U Amsterdam is taught in english

violet fable
#

i don't think the german requirement applies

tawny valley
#

All grad classes will be in english or french

violet fable
#

yeah, i remember researching this

#

specifically EPFL since it seemed like great value

#

and then it hit me with the french requirement

vital mortar
#

I doubt I can even study stuff in my mother tongue

#

I’ve been in an English school from day one and i can’t even think in any other language

violet fable
#

i think you need CEFR B2/C1

tawny valley
violet fable
#

B2 is easy to get, C1 might be tougher

vital mortar
#

Finished b1

#

And studying b2 basically

tawny valley
#

I was considering going to ETH Zurich when I wasn't sure if I was going to get into american universities

vital mortar
#

but stopped

violet fable
tawny valley
violet fable
#

but it seemed impractical for me since i am american, thought why should i bother with other countries 💀

violet fable
tawny valley
#

No

#

I mean for zurich I would be

#

not for america

violet fable
#

ah i see

tawny valley
#

I wasn't sure if I could get into any american unis

#

I didn't even think I could get into ASU

#

turned out I was very wrong about that

violet fable
#

that's some crazy under-estimation

vital mortar
#

as long as ur good

tawny valley
vital mortar
#

💀

#

yield protection

violet fable
#

UIUC waitlisted me although it's on me for not applying in EA

#

i did not know they were T5 in CS, i thought they were mid

tawny valley
#

it is asu

vital mortar
#

My friend got into UIUC two years ago and he had 0 cs related ECs

#

well I just hope carnegie mellon realizes that what a great addition i would be to their class

tawny valley
#

I really want MIT, CMU or HMC

violet fable
#

had all my hopes running on CMU and then they deferred me 💀

vital mortar
violet fable
#

true but i didn't apply CS to CMU

vital mortar
#

Then might be fine

tawny valley
#

I am going to be rejected

#

from CMU

vital mortar
#

CMU CS cursedmoon

violet fable
#

yeh i just think they deferred or rejected math applicants

#

didn't admit anyone

tawny valley
violet fable
tawny valley
#

my dream rejected me

violet fable
#

turns out, 6 months ago me thought it would be more realistic to get into stanford and so I did stanford REA

#

what a grave mistake that was

vital mortar
#

I mean we’re already kinda rare tho

vital mortar
#

I would technically be 17 at the first day of junior year

#

💀

#

at cmu

violet fable
#

damn, i wd be 18 when i go to college

#

couple of my friends will be 17

#

one guy in my class is 15 rn

tawny valley
#

I need to get out of NC

violet fable
#

what is your major for CMU?

#

within SCS

tawny valley
#

CS

violet fable
#

i think there are like 3-4 majors

#

oh pure CS

tawny valley
#

but I put SCS as a second choice because I'm not wanting to do CS

#

I'm just relying on it as a backup to be carried by my ECs

violet fable
#

ah i didn't get the option for a second choice

#

but if i did, i wdn't know what i wd put as my second choice

vital mortar
tawny valley
violet fable
#

yeh CMU is quite underrated

vital mortar
violet fable
#

CMU engineering and math are top tier as well

vital mortar
#

we actually have a cmu branch here

tawny valley
#

I refused to believe in acceptance rates

vital mortar
tawny valley
#

almost every safety has rejected me

#

so acceptance rates are a scam

violet fable
#

i agree

tawny valley
#

and I don't mean A2C safetys

#

I mean safety safetys

#

like ASU

violet fable
#

my state school deferred me despite 40% admit rate supposedly

tawny valley
#

WPI deferred me

violet fable
#

msu - got in
vtech - got in
umich - deferred (i am in-state and still wtf?)
gatech - deferred
cmu - deferred
purdue - got in
stanford - rejected

I was not theirs

too bad they missed out

There’s a Cornell med school

Only Qataris can go basically

And the rest are people at my school who know people who’ll let their children in

The 20% ar for deferred students is predominantly in state students

admissions wise

#

they said they are major blind and admit students to GTech as a whole

#

except CS

subtle cosmos
#

interesting that gatech decision date (3/22) is during its spring break. Poor AOs.

prime drum

uhm

#

damn

uncut iris
#

where did u see this?

prime drum
#

info session there

#

they explicitly said it

vital mortar
#

yay

#

Everyone and their mums tryna get into CS 😭 ik some friends who legit don’t even know how to use a pc and are planning to get into CS 💀

vital void
#

at least i hope

#

we dont need more cs majors

#

although if they dont know what they're doing it's hardly competition

vital mortar
#

that’s fine ig but they should make an effort

#

To use them

#

They can’t even make files

vital void
#

so fked

#

this is why we cant have nice things

#

and gotta take useless intro classes

#

iont need to learn fucking python slurp my nuts

vital mortar
#

u can not get a job interview without a referral since it’s like practically impossible when 25k are applying for that role

vital mortar
vital void
#

yeah u gotta play the ATS game now because too many braindeads apply

#

like 90+% get thrown out on first read

vital mortar
#

Python is ok but it’s simplicity skips a lot of important concepts

vital void
#

so it just wastes everyone's time

vital mortar
#

and they’re all mainly not qualified

vital void
#

if ur uncompetitive applicant, u can just fuck off since it'll make no difference
if ur comeptitive applicant, ur time is wasted with having to get past ATS

vital mortar
vital void
#

yeah

vital mortar
#

and then think they’re ready

vital void
#

shit's crazy

vital mortar
#

well it’s fine ig but u ain’t getting a job at MAANG unless ur actually rlly cracked and I bet him they won’t even see the resume anyway since they need an actual uni

vital void
#

real

#

also maang overrates

#

d

vital mortar
#

even if u didn’t graduate with cs but people need atleast a degree 💀

vital mortar
vital void
#

true but also like

vital mortar
#

Small startups can lose funding and kick u out at anytime

vital void
#

specialize

vital mortar
vital void
#

u can do sysadmin or various cybersec roles or data science (kinda tangential, different skilset) or SOMETHING that's not basic SWE

#

schools that offer SWE degrees to undergrads are crazy

#

so fking dumb

vital mortar
vital void
#

exactly

#

dev sucks anyways

vital mortar
vital void
#

true

vital mortar
vital void
#

dev is the easiest to replace with AI

vital mortar
#

but having a wide skill set is the best

vital mortar
#

and data analytics too an AI can analyze a lot of the info

#

it’ll be a matter of time where team sizes will become smaller

#

idk what field specifically is gonna stay up

#

but I’m betting it’s AI

#

or else I’m just gonna try and go EE route 😂

vital void
#

AI but also it's very hot and u need grad+ to do stuff

#

or just grind the shit out of undergrad at prestigious place

vital mortar
vital void
#

masters so expensive

vital mortar
vital void
#

im just gonna cope with ugrad unless i can get employer to pay

#

fair

vital mortar
vital mortar
#

Tbf idk what’ll happen

#

But if I can’t find a job

#

To take me after undergrad

#

I’ll do grad

jolly relic
#

boring

vital mortar
# jolly relic idk why everyone wants to do swe lmao

Exactly lol I mean it’s good to have as a skill especially when y want to build a gui for personal projects but as a job itself it’ll be really difficult to break in since it’s too oversaturated and I kinda don’t think I would enjoy it tbh

#

Also keeping up with Web dev specifically is hell

#

A new JavaScript library comes up every week 😂

#

Like javascript library devs are too bipolar

#

One week u build a project with their library and the next week they change the whole structure and syntax of the library

prime drum
#

and money

vital mortar
#

And if they don’t

#

they move into another field

prime drum
#

yea ong

vital mortar
#

😭

prime drum
#

just do what u like

vital mortar
#

Exactly

prime drum
#

not what others do

vital mortar
#

alot of people jumped into cs thinking it’s easy cuz u sit at a computer 😂

#

that’s not cs at all

prime drum

vital mortar
#

my friend did EE and he went to do product design instead

prime drum
#

rlly

#

damn

vital mortar
#

Yeah he studies at Warwick and has like a rlly god portfolio

#

So he had a few EE internships at car companies

#

Then switched to product design at Apple

prime drum
#

wow

#

that's exactly what I wanna do💀

vital mortar
#

he’s portfolio is stacked so ngl he is creative

prime drum
#

wiw

vital mortar
prime drum
#

oh

vital mortar
#

it’s just u gotta bear the design tasks they give u for interviews 😭

prime drum
#

oh💀

vital mortar
#

they give him a week and he has to come up with packaging for Apple

prime drum
#

Techs Design is good

vital mortar
#

And he got rejected twice

#

prime drum
#

damn

vital mortar
prime drum
#

Studios were rlly good

vital mortar
#

prime drum

kind ledge
#

Like this might sound weird or whatever but when I’m bored sometimes I do leetcode problems lol

vital mortar
#

I didn’t know it was this bad lol

#

I had a question

#

How bad is double majoring in gatech

#

For physics and cs

#

I heard normally a double major is 5 years at gatech 💀

#

but I’m unsure

kind ledge
#

Like if you’re doing cs + math, then it could be possible to finish in 4 since there are a lot of overlapping courses

vital mortar
#

I might actually consider EE completely and that’ll give me more overlapping physics courses but idk

vital mortar
prime drum
#

It's hard

vital mortar
#

😭

prime drum
#

but worth it

#

2 degrees from GTech

vital mortar
#

It is worth it yeah

prime drum
#

If u have APs or IBs

#

u can graduate early

vital mortar
#

I have a levels 💀

#

they don’t translate well at all

prime drum
#

some ppl also spend 6 yrs

vital mortar
#

Even tho they’re harder

prime drum
#

if u wanna go real easy w ur schedule

#

but 5 is standard

#

for double majors

vital mortar
#

tbh I’ll see Tbf

prime drum
#

yea

#

I'm doing it if I commit

vital mortar
#

Does gatech have pass fail?

prime drum
#

idk

vital mortar
#

Also does gatech have placement tests I can take

#

Instead

#

For credit

vital mortar
#

I don’t wanna go bankrupt for a degree except like if it’s actually worth it 💀

prime drum
#

it's the cheapest option for me

#

over state schools

kind ledge
prime drum
#

cuz I'm international

#

I basically get no aid

vital mortar
#

I’m intl aswell

vital mortar
prime drum
#

PSU is essentially 45k

#

GTech is 50

vital mortar
#

50k coa is alright I can try to manage it

#

But like 60k tuition 💀

#

Then add 20k coa
