note: don’t make a summary
find something in what their saying in what you need to do/apply to ourselves when talking to mort
what inspired them for stem
“like to take things apart and put them back together”
actuall intrest in computers, eg website design and hacking
project based person likes the fufilment of the projects
another project based person likes the fact that you are very happy to like see it fufiling.
we live in san diego san diego is a tech city growing up in it pushes on you stem is large for you. everywhere is stem
how important do you consider your porjects?
they grade you on if you know how everything works, and not directly on if the code words.
very similar to live reviews with mort
focusing on communicating is important skill
communication required?
purdue is more project based, but the communication is still nessisary BE CONSISE ABOUT THE THING YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT
“tell me about yourself”
very important question to awnser
one of the most important questions to awnser, never f*** up that question
mort skills??
one of the other persons is that mort taught him how to deal with issues and that made him have a lot of benefits
agile methodology
before every type of assignment is required to make a flowchart
flowcharts are enormous, as the programs they has are multiple files long.
flowcharts are very big part of commiting ideas
user face diagram are also important.
how did high school projects effect it
internships are really benefitted by the mort classes
helped one person get through an internship at northop gurman
a large company usually uses github, being organized with github is very useful.
mort things help a lot with clubs
also helps greatly with projects
flowcharts are important, flowcharts are used widly, flowcharts are used SO MUCH ITS NOT FUNNY HELP IM GETTING WARDENBURG FLASHBACKS
yay college
what is application process
bro applied to purdue and was not expected to go there and realized holy s*** they are actually good at aerospace im going them
he also wrote essays for purdue the night before and also said DO NOT DO THAT
he also only applied for all uc except for berkley, as well as georgia tech & MIT
he also took a lot of ap’s (halp my mom)
ivies dont count ap’s, most of ap’s will not transfer
ivy person can vouch goes to engineering school, she has stem prereq but can also do humanities school as breather location of coloumbia is good people on campus are helpful in essays she talked about projects in apcsa coloumbia essays are short, 150 words. she talked about facial detector and provided quote to cheer you up the project is both technical and ethical coloumbia likes social and tech stuff
likes del norte way or not see if you can find a college with the things you like suprised by lack of projects hard to know until your there explore everything you know, find the one that fits you best
look at major look at what the university provides look at classes that university offers!! all colleges know about you is grades, essay, personal statement SHOW PASSION, SHOW WHY YOU BELONG (gohar guide refrence??)
investigate the classes
advice for us?
take cc classes
prestigious schools will accept cc classes
TAKE COMMUNITY CLASSES BEFORE
apparently jobs don’t really look at gpa they look at projects you did, maybe look at gpa gpa does not reflect on hands on capability/project based capability
what has helped you a lot in high school?
building a lot of websites, ask buisnesses if he can remake it good for making connections, meeting people (possible money???)
scioly flight has showed him a new perspective shows them how it wokrs.
cyber patriot secure windows& linux servers great way to meet people taked about it while meeting people northrop gurman is similar to cyberpatriot…kinda
email a bunch of people, but it helps if one of the professors has replied, then thats good, you have a person to talk too.
if you have a passion, stick to the passion
whatever your passionate about, do that thing.
basically everyone procrastinated about the college apps
to maneage stuff people used gitbook or something, just like a lare notebook.
“the future is cs” - (i forgot his name)
BUT I AGREE
EVERYTHING IS IN JYPETER NOTEBOOK (.json)
best way to find info about internships, go to company website and click on careers, then interns
also can use indeed.
also linkedin, search top 300 companies/smaller startup
messageing people on linkedin (recruiters) can give you a lot of skills
website skills are important, as internships only have 1 page and a personal websitecan act like a portfolio, in order to help
and again,, EXPLORE WHATS OUT THERE
freshman going to college -
your first internship does not nessisarly need to match your major, its just for internship experience.
go to carrier fairs! can find a lot of connections
