I currently attend college at Dixie State University located in St. George, Utah. I am currently doing general studies while figuring out what career field I want to major in, which, right now, is either computer science or software engineering. I have taken some concurrent enrollment courses in high school with DSU, so I am technically a college sophomore at the time of writing this.
Current Classes
My current college classes include the following:
- Accounting 2010 - Financial Accounting: I am taking this class to help me know if accounting could be a good fit for me if computer science and software engineering don't work out for me.
- English 2010 - Interim Writing: I consider english to be one of my weakest, if not my weakest, subject in school, mainly because I haven't been super great at writing, but with my college english classes like this one, I have gotten much better.
- Math 1220 - Calculus II: Many students have said Calc II was the hardest calculus class they have taken and I would have to agree with them. Calc II is the hardest math class I have taken since a lot of the concepts are hard to figure out when they are put into practice.
- CS 1410 - Object Oriented Programming: I have gotten to really like this class because of what I was able to accomplish with the coding I learned during the course of the class. Plus, I think coding looks really cool.
- SE 1400 - Web Design: Like with CS 1410, I have been liking this class because of the coding I have learned and seeing the end result of the coding I have done. This class was also my first fully online course ever and I like being able to do everything at home but, at the same time, I wish I could've met everyone in person.
Former Classes
Some of my former college classes including the following:
- Math 1210 - Calculus I: This was my first college math class since I took AP Calculus in high school and managed to pass the ap test with a 3 so I was able to get into Calc I without much difficulty. Since I took AP Calc in high school, the material in Calc I came much easier to me than the material in Calc II.
- English 1010 - Introduction to Writing: Like Calc I, this was my first college english and, in my opinion, it felt more difficult than English 2010 or even my AP Literature class that I took in high school.
- CS 1400 - Functional Programming: I felt this class was somewhat easy since it was an introductory course to the Python language. There were some coding assignments that were difficult but I ultimately liked it.
- Biology 1610 & 1615 - Principles of Biology I and it's corresponding lab: I liked this class in that most of the "homework" in it was just studying for tests and quizzes. I also liked the genetics and DNA units that was covered during the class.
I also take institute classes and I enjoy spending time at the campus institute of religion when I am on campus but not attending class or receiving help from tutors on various assignments.
