This past week was mostly spent finishing up the final projects in most of my classes. I finished the programming projects in both of my CS classes that had them and mostly finished my Chinese final project presentation. I also seriously started going over the Hackerrank exercises again and again until I can do them without looking for help. I've gotten decent at it so far, but I still have a little ways to go before I will feel prepared for the test.
What's in your way?
Currently in my way is worrying about the test for this class. I did not do well for the last one and am very worried about how well I will do now. Granted, now that I know how the tests work and can study for them properly, it shouldn't be too much of an issue, but nevertheless, I am worried.
What will you do next week?
Since next week is the last week of classes, I have a whole slew of things that need to be done before I can start studying for finals. I will keep practicing the Hackerrank exercises, even the old ones, and as time permits I will review the quizzes and notes so I don't miss a single thing. I will also finish preparing for the final presentation for Chinese, but since it is a video, once our group finishes recording, we will just have to watch it in class which will be torturous, but it needs to be done.
What did you think of the talk by Miriam?
What did you think of the talk by Miriam?
It was very informative, and I especially liked that she allowed time in the end for a significant number of questions. It is always helpful to hear examples of how people make the transition from college to the work environment.
What's your pick-of-the-week or tip-of-the-week?
Although most of this class probably already knows to do this, my tip of the week is still to do the Hackerrank exercises whenever you get the chance. Do them until you don't need outside help to complete them. Doing this will almost assure you don't get hung up on syntax or compile errors during the test, and will probably help you solve the actual problem as well.
