Appreciate the video, do you think not going to a top 25 uni for CS will hinder opportunities to gain internships?

It depends on the company, some are more 'elitist' in that they only recruit from Oxbridge or Russel Group universities. But there are many top companies that don't discriminate based on universities such as Amazon.

Hi, it really depends on the context and your uni choices. If your school do not offer FM then it doesn't affect your application. Otherwise, you put yourself at a disadvantage as many competitive applications for the very top unis (imperial, ucl, oxbridge etc) have FM

Hi I was just asking I’m in year 13 and I do Math Economics and Computer Science to do a Conputer Science degree at Warwick or Ucl or kings college. My prediction are A* A A* in that order and was wondering do I still have a chance of getting into a top Russell group even though I know economics isn’t the best fit and physics or fm was better?

Hi, fm would have helped your application and it may not be too late to take AS fm as I did however it's not the end of the world. To make a competitive application, a 3A* prediction will be more beneficial as well as a strong personal statement. Feel free to contact me on @codedbyjade on instagram for personal statement help

Hi. Similar to the person who wrote a comment 3 days ago, I am thinking of doing further maths AS level by self studying in year 13. I am currently nearing the end of year 12 with the options Maths, Bio and CS. My predicteds will be at worst 2 A stars and an A, but will most likely be 3 A stars. I understand that these grades are good, but from what ive seen online, no further maths = i probably wont get into a good uni such as warwick, kcl or UCL (oxbridge without further is apparently impossible) You mentioned in that other comment that the person should drop one of their A levels and do the full further maths a level in year 13. Do you think i can do that aswell? Im not sure how it would work - would i have to self study it, as my classmates would be doing year 2 content, or would i be joining the then-year 12s? Also, do you think i have a chance at the top unis with my A level choices? Sorry for all the questions. Ive been stressing alot due to me seriously regretting not picking FM
@codedbyjade
@codedbyjade Жыл бұрын
If you are already about to start Year 13, I would focus on spending this summer doing a maths course etc instead to boost your application rather than pciking up Further Maths. I know that kcl don't mind not having FM. Even if you pick up FM, you may not have a predicted grade for the subject for unis to see anyway and in my case, none of my offers included my potential AS FM grade.

Hey im currently thinking of taking Further Maths As in Year 13 whilst im currently in Year 12 alongside A levels Maths, Computer Science and Chemistry do you think that it would disadvantage me in not taking the full a level since i've already got Computer Science and am planning to apply to Oxford for Computer Science and Philosophy 😅😅

Hey what’s the real difference between computer sci and software engineering and which do you think is better
@codedbyjade
@codedbyjade 2 жыл бұрын
Hi, Software Engineering is a lot more practical and focuses on industrial skills whereas Computer Science dives deeper into theoretical topics such as the theory of computation and computer architecture as two examples. Both offer programming modules but Computer Sciences talks more about the nuances of each language (i.e. how its compiler manages memory) and software engineering focuses more towards you mastering a programming language/ web framework and project management. As for which is better, it really depends on what you want out of the degree. I chose Computer Science bc I was interested in the theoretical aspects and planned to learn the practical aspect via internships. If you don't want to do a lot of maths / more interested in the practical aspects, I would opt for Software engineering otherwise Computer Science is a better fit. I hope this answered your question and let me know if you have any more.

I'm only starting to look at Comp Sci now, do you think I have enough time to do activites to make my personal statement competitive? A levels are Maths, Further maths, Physics. Predicted A*A*A*. I was thinking of reading 2-3 books from oxford's reading list, teach myself to code while doing a few projects and make a reinforcement learning bot if I have enough time once I've learned to code. This means I'll probably be working 6 hours a day when combining TMUA prep however I'm worried I won't have enough super curriculars as the only super curricular I've already done is STEM SMART phase 1 & 2.
