Well ive finished my first term and were just getting ready to take our first set of exams(this week). We had two teachers with English as their 3rd or 4th language and another 2 that dont do their jobs right at all.
Out of the original 30 strong class, there are 7 of us left. The top guy on the course has just dropped out and we're all reeling from it as he was one of our translators.
Ive got serious amounts of work to do and dont really have any time to revise for the exams which is crazy.
I said I wouldn't give up so I havnt and i'm going to stick it out to the very last day.
Ive learnt graphic design, website design, computational thinking and most of the concepts used in programming. Were using html, c# and python along with pseudocode. The course turned out to be Data Science lvl3.. it goes up to lvl 4.
I'll update the thread with my exam results next week. wish me luck, I'm going to need it. :toast:

Thanks buddy.... ive been up all night doing mock exams... i'll be spending all day today and this evening. right up to the first exam. I passed the mock easily. The exam tomorrow is more our kind of thing though as its asking about hardware. the von Neumann architecture etc... main mem - alu-arithmetic logic unit cu-control unit, together making up the cpu… so hopefully I can get a merit or even a distinction on this part. the coding exams are far harder. :toast:

You'll be fine, I wish you all the best (but I'm sure you won't need it ;))
