The Hardest Part About Computer Science Isn't Coding

You would expect Computer Science to be a degree that teaches you how to become a software engineer. In reality, it is a degree that teaches you computational theory, which will involve some coding classes. But you will have a lot of math classes too, which often catches people by surprise.

So that brings us to the question, "If I am bad at math, should I take Computer Science". The answer is no, if you are bad at math you shouldn't take a computer science degree. But I would challenge that statement and say you aren't bad at math, you just need to take some deliberate actions to get up to speed so that you can succeed in those classes.

I graduated high school with my highest math grade being a B-, and after implementing my three tips I ended up getting A's in college. If I can do, you certainly can do it too.
