[@Gandhi_Physique]

@@jrkularatne2900 I'm kinda weird tbh, so there are some things others do that I just didn't. Best I can say is don't let schooling get in the way of your education. You have to create your own projects and try to learn more outside of class. Assuming you are wanting to do something regarding programming, codesignal is free and has some problems you can try to solve. Really try to master the basics. Also, try your best to stick to one language in the beginning. If you don't understand loops, classes, variables, inheritance, abstraction, operations, and the various datatypes first, then you may end up confusing yourself. If you need help, there are plenty of sites and even Discord channels you can hop into. Some people will act arrogant, but there are plenty that want to help. When you know these basics, figuring out another language will be easier. You don't want to be trying to learn the basics of programming and more than one language's syntax. It is possible, but would be a headache. Python is recommended for beginners, but Java is also pretty good (though slightly more complex) I'm not saying don't ever look at other languages of course, I'm just saying try to focus on one at the beginning. Also, try not to copy/paste code if you don't understand what the copied code is doing! Also, be looking for internships and such in Junior and Senior year. They can be great at showing you what you are getting into. Try to avoid unpaid internships though. If you aren't going to be a software engineer though, then I can't help too much. The first part of what I said still applies though. Hopefully this is somewhat useful, just try your best and keep on trying and failing and trying and then finally succeeding over and over again.
