I started watching you in 2018. I was 12 and I vividly remember telling myself... "I'll go to Yale, too." 6 years later, I'm getting ready to move in to New Haven and attend Yale! Your videos helped me gain a ton of perspective about everything over the years. Thanks for everything!
Just wanted to say that I was just admitted to my dream school (Brown). Josh, your videos inspired me for years in high school to push myself academically. Thank you so much and good luck!
@@JoshBeasleyHello. Please help with your advice. I am interested in programming, I love technology, Linux. And now my father says that they can help me get a degree in Computer Science. But some say that this education is useless. I remember your video in which you said that CS it's a good education but it's been a while since that time. Please tell me what you think about it now. thank you
I'm a freshman at Brown studying CS and engineering. Its interesting to see how Yale's program is similar and how it differs. My CS professor this past semester was one of the head developers on Racket, so I am also an avid hater of parenthesis. Congratulations on your graduation!
I recently got into Yale!! And I wanted to say thank you to you because you are the UA-camr that rlly introduced me to Yale and I’m not sure I would’ve applied if it wasn’t for your videos so thank you!!
To anyone watching Remember in college days during submissions and exams U will have many breakdowns U will feel like giving up even crying Sometimes u will fail Just don't give up Failures are a part of success
My high school isn't known for being the best school, but my engineering classes are definetly amazing and need more validation I am learning how to code and use Arduino's as well and its fun and super cool.
Hello Josh. loving your old videos about Yale. I’m currently in the AF and going to be at Yale for a Scholar Warrior Project this summer, but was undecided on whether to go to Harvard for the same program, but your videos have helped me a lot in my decision. Thank you for your service! Salute!
Loved this video man. Been watching you for years now, and you're one of the people who gave me the motivation to apply to Yale. My Yale REA decision comes out in around 24 hours now! So, wish me luck man. And as always, thankyou for your videos!
Me - *Sees the notification from Josh*...*smashes like before even the intro rolls in*. Man I gotta say it you are the only college youtuber I have been consistently watching since like the last three years. And now that I'm a Sophomore myself majoring in cs, I can relate to your videos a lot more than before
Hey Josh, I watched your video last year and decided to take Games with Glenn; it is honestly the BEST class I've taken, hands down. Thanks for everything!!
I’m starting to think my spring semester course load is going to be insane lol. Linear algebra, statistics, electricity and magnetism, introduction to microeconomics, and algorithms and data structures at Princeton. May not be ideal lmao.
Josh, you did a great job! You should come to visit the campus of the University of Texas at Arlington. It will make you wonder why you went to Yale. Texas tries very hard to keep its brightest minds here in Texas.
Hey Josh, I just got into Yale for and I’m going in for Comp Sci. Been watching your videos for years thanks for the help along the way. Watching a ton of your vids recently trying to get the scope of your degree. Any profs to look out for?
As a European, I don't get why you only take 4 classes per semester, some of them being writing/law. like wtf? I have 6 classes every semester and they are all from the Math/Physics/Engineering departments.
Dang, I’ve been here since your AP videos and now you’ve finished college! I’m also studying cs. Did you become an officer in the military and did you join outside of college?
My son is planning to join CS and Economics major for fall 2024 in yale as international student. He has all 8 A* in igcse, took computers science, Economics, accounting, and business along with math and science subjects. He expects all A in AS level, too. His SAT score is 1520, toefl 111, and he has completed a bunch of extracurricular activities also. Any clue or suggestion? Thanks
To me, almost all institutions are failing their students because they focus little on data structures and mostly on trees, sorting algorithms, and Big O notation and time complexity. To me, solving a complex problem like an airline reservation system using linked lists is what computer science should be all about.
No hate here but anyone planning on doing CS don’t go to an ivy they’re not even top 10 and it’s dropping almost a quarter of a million for not even the top tier education you expect at an ivy
If you are currently in India or if you know current situation of education in India then you will better understand that even average universities in the USA provide far better opportunities and education than that in the India.
@@tirthpatel6824 bro I have usa citizenship. If you are guessing me as an Indian through my channel name then you are wrong. I am overseas citizen of india aka OCI
I graduated with a mathematics degree and I must say I regret going to college and receiving my degree because I was easily able to pass my classes during covid semesters with the help of tutors for exams and copying exam solutions online. When classes were held in person I failed one class each semester with the exception of semester but that was a repeat class with the same professor so i wouldn’t necessarily count that. I have suffered from thought suppression since I was a kid and it didn’t necessarily interfere with my studies until senior year of high school and it still continues today. Every time I learned information and processed the material visually, my mind also thinks about scenarios where I forget what I’m visualizing and I perform a rebound effect and my mind alternates back and forth to visualizing and forgetting. It’s one of the main reasons why I had bad grades and if classes were held in person I guarantee you I would have never finished college unless I had to take one hard class per semester and mix it with an elective or just take one math class alone which would then make me feel dumb and isolated from other students who graduated early. Hell I couldn’t imagine completing a CS degree with the attention problems I have today.
@@muuubiee I feel like CS makes you think more than math because you can have an error in your code and not realize the error despite checking your work and making necessary edits so that would take extra hours
My biggest issue with Yale when I was applying was that they don't offer an undergraduate orchestra class, so I didn't feel like they would be able to provide me a meaningful bachelor's degree in music.
I’ve never really made my mind up of what I want to do but I plan to get a bachelors in computer science at VMI and then become an officer in the Air Force. I’ve never been particularly good at math. I think it was because I had trouble connecting formulas to the situation to solve the problem. I already know hard work can get you just about anywhere but, is it going to be a devastation going for CS and having no experience or idea of what I’ll actually be doing?
How are you responding to every comment?! Also so what was your ending GPA, do you think that it really matters what it was for future jobs? Also one more question, how much does prestige matter for CS colleges. I am a high school junior right now, going to apply to colleges soon, and am wondering specially for CS, how much does college prestige matter, like for internships and pay? Thanks!!
also, in my experience, when it comes to SWE internships, prestige matters when it comes to the likelihood of you getting a first round interview/coding challenge, but after that, they only care about how good of a programmer you are
@@JoshBeasley And what about after that first internship, does prestige matter? Like I'm guessing for MIT undergrads they can easily get a first FAANG internship, but for less prestigious schools, say the first internship is a no name internship, then is it easier to get a second FAANG internship because they already have the intern experience? Or nah?
@@shikhargupta6626 work experience will almost always be better than what school you're at, expect for some rare cases. Try to get into a good college but if you don't, its not a big deal, just work on projects and build your resume
9:02 I suggest you should elaborate more on why it is cool and amazing experience getting an internship at AWS instead of keep saying amazing and cool repeatedly. Beside that, it is a great video.
@@JoshBeasley better question: how much of the knowledge you acquired do you utilize or think you will use in the future? currently a self taught programmer and very very iffy about cs.
@@wtfimcrying Just graduated. Not an Ivy League school. It is worth it if you're willing to self study for quite a bit. But it is definetly worth it in my opinion. The reason for me is because one I am not great at being self taught, so it forced me to learn a lot of the stuff, and a CS degree gives you a foundation in data structures, algorithms, databases, math, and theory, which employers do consider, and you will have projects to show what you did to employers. I just graduated and I already had interviews for a security automation position, and technical challenge. So yes it is definelty worth it, if you are willing to put it in the work (Cyber security was my concentration for my degree). I would also recommend looking at certs as well.
Oh and you also learn how the computer actually operates close to the hardware, i.e. assembly, and designing CPU datapaths (computer organization and architecure). Oh and furthermore I had an internship (cyber security), which being a student helped me get, and said internship has been helping me tremendously in getting interviews.
wow...... i studied at uc davis, not gonna lie, your school seems better. dammmmm..... are you actually in the military? i was a cs minor, took about 45 units of cs classes. working on a data analytics cert right now... just graduated college 2 weeks ago
It means nothing at all. That's what I dropped out of school, became a quant on my own, and now an a wealthy commodity pool manager. College means fucking nothing

I can't help but wonder why you decided Yale for CS. It is much better for law and, if you really want it, mathematics.
this was the reason why I applied to Yale. Yale was the only target/reach school that accepted me.
Cool! You made some good pointers!
