Yes it is hard for people who are not good at math (problem solving) to do programming. But, it's not really a forever thing. Perhaps after learning programming the level of problem solving skills also does increases and helps understand math better.

Ehhh I've always struggled with math.. I failed the intro math course, at my uni, 3 times while I passed the actual degree level papers for physics, biology, chemistry, and physiology. I can use logic, and I can problem solve (I was a plumber for over a decade as well) but I'm just not good at math. I started programming about 6 months ago and I'm finding the mathematical parts to be MUCH easier than any math I tried to apply or study at uni. You don't really need to understand the math to program a computer to calculate it for you. I mean, obviously, you need to KINDA understand it, but you don't need to be able to actually do the calculations yourself and remember the intricacies and whatnot. You just gotta understand what the steps are, for the equation, and how to translate those steps into something a computer can understand. Knowing maths helps, but I suck at maths and that really hasn't hindered me.

Problem of doing it without a degree or going to a boot camp is that you need to provide a reason why people need to look at you. Portfolio, a Github full of complex projects. I recommend starting from the ground up, slowly learning your basics from KZbin, Cybrary, then moving into more complex problems and build your base and portfolio.

In my experience, doing college courses and online tutorials for developing is a nightmare. After school I have been looking for a job up to 6 months. Plus, you NEED a portfolio or github to give to possible employers. If they like your portfolio you will get the calls. My experience with Network Technician was easier. STUDY the Network+ and CCNA! How do you get into this career path if you are unable to get experience? Someone you know is a possible tech nerd. Start off as a Help Desk technician. Work your way up to Network Technician specialist. Maybe I did it wrong for development side and you don't need a degree, but you do NEED and IMPRESSIVE portfolio! I prefer job interviews where I don't have to talk about my portfolio projects and I just talk about my past job experiences.

This is a question that is currently causing me a lot of anxiety and, ultimately, depression. I started in school in Kinesiology but wound up in Computer Science. The goal was to become a software developer. I've struck different barricades to get the degree, but the idea for several years has to become some kind of developer. Lately I've been considering switching paths and finishing my degree in CyberOps to work in the field of cybersecurity. At some level, there is an interest in the field (particularly in information security and privacy). Right now I've been stuck trying to figure out what path to take, and there are a number of fears keeping me from being able to move forward in any real capacity. Fear of failure. Fear of winding up in a career or position I ultimately hate. Fear of not being able to pivot into security or into software development from the position I wind up in. And a whole host of other fears.

Best advice I can give to anyone here is dress professional, show confidence but don’t be cocky, and I can’t stress this enough really make it known what your goals are and where you plan to be in IT years from now. I had all my interviews say they were more focused on where I’m working to be at rather than where I’ve been I think this is key to entry level jobs in IT to get your foot in the door.

It would be better to ask whether someone is analytical, enjoys puzzles, logic problems. I avoided programming for years because I thought I needed to be "good at math" which I never was, but when I finally tried it I loved it and had no problem. A friend of mine who is a university CS teacher says he finds that students with literature or philosophy backgrounds do very well with programming as they come with a strong analytical foundation and tend to quickly see how the parts relate to the whole. Personally I think it's a lot like knitting.

Yeah. There are many sub-fields in the IT industry. In general, IT jobs don't really require any programming at all. You're pretty much using pre-built software and more or less configuring it for your needs or that of the place you work for. For instance, you may have a business that runs a Windows domain environment where you have multiple domain controllers and other servers that control various parts of the IT infrastructure such as printing, file sharing, network access, etc.

SDN is being requested more. However there aren't many qualified people who can deploy and maintain it. Learning software dev to automate and install patches in an SDN will make you HIGHLY VALUABLE AND SOUGHT AFTER

IT is an extremely broad field so its not exactly possible to answer your question as is. If you're interested in computer networking, you may want to look at networking certifications like the CCNA or others. If you want to get into servers, there are certifications for that as well. Same thing with the cloud. There isn't a single path you have to take. Whether IT is "better" is entirely subjective. They are 2 different technology paths. IT is generally more 'hands on' approach. Depending on your job, you may be fixing computers, both hardware or software wise if you're an IT tech. You may be dealing with end-users like resetting password, troubleshooting printing problems, etc. If you're a network person, instead of working with users directly, you may be working on the network, such as making sure your routers and switches are fine, etc.

@@wintesrain that is for 1 user. I usually have a list of at least 700+ users in a CSV file. I'm thinking of a script that can take the display name(lastname, firstname) or first.last or last.first name and return just their logon ID. Then add a little validation for returning a value of the name is not found. Or I could concatenate the script with users name in the csv file with the get ADuser script and paste onto powershell?

@@cu806 You can easily scale up with it. Have you made scripts before? PowerShell scripts are some of the most braindead to create because of the wealth of documentation. Not trying to be rude I gave you the first piece but it really shouldn't be that hard to do. I've done similar tasks in minutes.

You can only get it by taking the A+ exams at an authorized Pearson Vue testing center. Though I also believe that they started allowing you to take tests at home due to the pandemic.

You don't have to be good at math to become a programmer. That is a huge myth. You do, however, have to learn how to think logically and develop the patience to read code.
