    It was 70% not 50% in maths requirements for CS when I first registered in 2020... unless they changed it...And you saved your life from Physics I also switched it to CS...PHY1004W is the most difficult course in 1st year level at UCT, MAM1000W is nothing... I was also very good in it in high school I got over 90% but my first test I got 26%💔😭😭😭

    Can I ask ,what if I didn't reach the minimum requirements in Grade 11 n applied with that report then got a minimum of 75% on final year (matric) ..would they accept me?

    • @abongile_n
      @abongile_n  Рік тому +2

      So how Universities work is they give out conditional acceptances before the final exam marks are out . So If you didn't do well in grade 11 then I think you can redeem yourself with grade 12 term one and use that report to apply instead

      if you want to study CS through the science faculty/ BSc, yes. You'll need to get above 60% for that and above 70% in maths. There are other faculties such as Commerce and Humanities, where you can study some CS courses. Though it might not be as in depth as Computer science in the Science faculty
