I took three courses last semester. I just got the final grade for the last one. I got an A in one, and two F's in the others. I can't believe this. I finished my last math course in the beginning of Spring. I thought I would just be able to coast to graduation from here, but I'm getting stomped. Now I have to finish 16 courses before next September to graduate on time. The courses I failed were operating systems and networking.

I just don't get how to study for non-math courses. I review the material, and then forget everything if it isn't math.

What's the best way to learn computer science?

>failing CS courses

I'd call you retarded, but that's an insult to retards.

Practice a lot, do all the assignments and some more if it isn't enough, solve as many exams from previous years as you can before the exam.

Bumping for this. Your suggestions and help is appreciated, sci. Thanks!

Do you even know anything about CS? Like actual CS research?

Don't listen to these retards, OP.
The fact is these bitter failed academics on /sci/ that shitpost about other degrees are undergraduates with no real deep knowledge of science and math. Take a look at any math professor, CS professor, physics professor, etc. Usually nice genuine people. Smart people are usually well mannered and kind. And also, all real academics respect CS, just ask any of your professors. CS is only a meme in shitty online imageboards about pseudo-science.

Cs is considered average here

But I'm a math undergraduate.

All I'm saying is that /sci/ makes it seem like CS is a joke. It's not and everyone in academia agrees.

Sooo...What kind of degree is accepted here?

Only physics and obscure degrees like computational nuclear physics

Everyone is a pretentious fuck here, so fuck off if you are actually smart
