Great video!

[@user-vm8yn4hb4w]

GIOS is real tough class right haha. ton of codes to write and think about

[@tahirm09]

Good

[@panamacityboi]

Thank you-this is a really great video! I’m starting the program this fall and want to take GIOS as my first class. About how many hours a week do you think you spent on the course? Also, do you plan to take AOS in the future? Cheers!

[@sam_cant_code]

Happy to hear! I probably spent about 20 hrs/wk, but there were definitely peaks where I spent more. I didn’t end up taking AOS, and I’ve already graduated, but I’ve heard it’s a great class and might take it in the future

What was your undergrad major before OMSCS and did you have to take any MOOCs before applying?

[@sam_cant_code]

I did bioengineering for undergrad. I did quite a few MOOCs to see if I liked computer science, but specifically to prepare for OMSCS I did four community college classes

[@jpzzzworld]

Do mind sharing which community classes you took please, and were they helpful, and what other classes would you recommend in retrospect?
