Hi zafaris! Thanks for the great video, I am actually starting my first year of computer science in UCL in a few weeks so your videos are very helpful and informative, keep it up 🔥

Yo zafaris, Weiyi here. Oh my gosh you made a splendid video! A very detailed and fun summery of our second year. TBH, this year is the time that all of us trying to find the direction of our careers. We do projects, prepare for interviews and apply for interns, what a term. No matter what, I'm glad that majority of us've got decent enough marks for this year so that we can finally rush for First Class for the final year, despite the lack of mark for logic exam due to the boycott, bruh. Overall, appreciate your work and also your living style. In second year I also tried to be more outgoing and attend social events include societies or public events as much as I can, but considering how much resource we can get in UCL, London, I think I should attend more events and be better. We all know that the final year will be the end game, and our 3-year effort will come to an conclusion for this year, but nothing stops us having good life and be better.👍

Hi this year I applied for CS in ucl and I was wondering how supportive and what’s the quality of teaching at UCL? Because I have heard that the teaching is not great and they expect you to know everything, would you agree? What’s your opinion
Hey Zafari! Your videos are very cool. Could you please let me know what will happen if I fail the exam? I start CS at UCL in a few weeks. And I am very worried that I will not pass mathematics, since there was no futher mathematics at my school. Is there any chance that I will be transferred to the second year if I fail one exam? PS. wishing you lots of luck in your final year!!!

Thanks for the kind words! I believe if you only fail a single module exam you’ll be condoned, so should be fine to continue to the next year. Best of luck to you too!
Asalamualikum bro, this video and your previous 'first year of CS' video were really informative and a great help! I've just started my A-levels and I'm considering CS at uni as well, so it was really good to get an overview of the modules you did and what you thought of them. Keep it up bro!
Great video bro! come back to the states 😂

I am in my first year of a levels doing bio chem and maths and thinking of doing computer science. I am doing some coding at home such as python. Do you think I will be okay in uni without computer science a level and what advice would you have for me?
@zafaris

Hey! It’s definitely possible as many people I know (including me) didn’t take CS for A levels. My suggestion would be to focus more on maths as this is crucial for CS, as well as learning programming basics through online resources - Harvard CS50, freecodecamp, KZread tutorials. You got this :)
This course actually looks 70% fun, how big is the jump from A level computer science and maths would you say? I'm gassed asf if they accept me
@zafaris

There are definitely enjoyable parts of the CS course! The maths and theory is quite a step up from A-Level maths, so it definitely helps if you’ve done further maths. For the coding modules, you should be fine cause you’ve programmed before :)
Hi, can you share your DSA notes
any reasons behind switching from MEng to Bsc, i'm second year MEng this year

I managed to get internships in both 1st and 2nd year, and switching to BSc allows me to go into industry 1 year earlier. I also might do a masters in the future at a different uni.
Cool video!! why transfered to Bsc?
@zafaris

Thanks! Decided to switch because I’d either like to pursue a masters at another uni, or go straight into industry.
