pursuing my second bachelors in computer science from TESC, any advice/opinions?

wheresmyelephant Wrote:I'm good at math and don't have much programming experience but I've been using HTML on/off for the last 15 years. Also have been teaching myself C and Java the last couple of months but I'm by no means an expert.

I did take the LSAT last year with only self-study, went from a 149 to a 173 so I'm relatively confident I can teach myself and the formal logic understanding has helped me in every other aspect of my life including programming.

I don't understand what you mean by doubling up on programming languages? I'm doing C in September and then C++ the next semester, no overlap. I'm only taking 2 other classes with them

I thought my program was pretty good, is taking 6-9 credits a semester really that much work? The 2 hardest semesters are still under 10 credits and my work schedule is only 40 hours. No wife or kids.

C is good to learn beforehand. It will get you used to the syntax, and give you a rough idea of what to expect in the way of pointers, arrays, and such. The textbook they use hard to read at times, but it works. I wouldn't take C with assembly if I were you.
