I was in her shoes when I first arrived Belgium to further my education especially in a field I had little or no experience in , my first year was hell for me. I was depressed , home sick , lost my sociality touch , I could not study , I was always lost in class, I thought leaving the shores of my country was not the best decision for me . My class mates thought I was this dump African student 😂😂. I can relate very well. Buh, right now , I have very much adapted to being an international student. I am in my second year now and fighting to make distinctions in all my courses I failed and the ones to come.i am glad I came and was able to survive.

She's gorgeous.

We started CS in the same year, yet I was at the opposite spectrum of the student body and I struggled a lot, even with a perfect support system and lots of prior knowlegde. I have an insane level of respect for students like you and how you somehow manage to not break under all this additional pressure. I am sorry you had to endure this weird, ego-fuelled atmosphere where everyone else seems to be doing better than you and no one admits how hard it is.

I don't know if I could have passed my first year under the same circumstances students coming from abroad have. The first year is demanding and pushes you to the limits. Lots of respect to her and all the students at ETH.

Excellent POV. Much needed ❤️

I like listen to you talking, clear, really confident and thoughful. So much respect for you and hope to see you passing by someday at the ETH. Wish you much success and contentment in 2022.

Thank you so much für sharing your experience. It really helps when being in the same situation!

My skills are in art and music, and I spent most of my life perfecting and honing those skills. There wasn’t much of a career in those, and I didn’t want to spend thousands of dollars in a study which I could just pursue on the side (I’m from the US, US colleges are more expensive). Then I majored in CS. It was tough in the beginning, not only the math, but understanding the logic of completing puzzles, then figuring how to create those puzzle pieces and have them fall into place all in code. I felt behind from peers who coded since they were young or during HS. I felt discouraged and questioned many times if CS was for me. But I stuck to it, and I feel I have come a long way since I written my first code. It has opened me to a new outlook on things and showed that I can combine CS with my art skills in careers like game development or stack development. If anything I think it enhanced my skills as I gained a new perspective. I still have a lot to learn and it’s a long journey ahead, but remember, go at your own pace. Slow and steady wins the race. Don’t mind your peers and just on YOU! Take your time with these concepts and have fun with it! Even make small coding projects that help you understand the concepts better. Most importantly, remember you are capable!

This girl has healing energy

"What are you playing?" "I wrote this!" That's enough to make me quit college 😢

Basarilar Selin hanim. Ayni sektordeyiz ve ayni soyadina sahibiz. Umarim her sey gonlunce olur. =)

Very nice video series.

So relatable ❤

In my case, the difficulty was entering the strongly practical side of the courses. In Italy I was top class, but it was just matter of studying for your exams, getting full grades. Here I faced my first challenging projects, in which maybe my supervisors did not know the answers for the problem and I could give my contribute. After a project which I gave up, I made it and graduated. Now I am doing an internship, always under the ETH wing and looking for new interesting challenges!

I finally found her again. Im so glad! Thankyou ETH Zurich. And dear brain, dont ever forget about ther okay? Shes the reason why im studying Math and Physics

I felt like you're describing my life right now. Hopefully I pass all the exams 🤞.

Can relate to this so much!

More of these videos please

idk why youtube recommended me this vidéo, but it's fcking great ! Good luck to her and really nice montage from the time ! (and nice song :)

She perfectly described how I feel

Inspiring ✨✨

I'm a 1st semester student too who just completed 1 month of college in Electronics Engineering a couple of days ago. My college is in my own country, just about 100km from my hometown and I'm currently studying online from the comforts of home due to COVID restrictions. But I can still totally relate to Selin! The studies do feel overburdening. I do feel overwhelmed and out of place sometimes, even though Electronics has been my childhood passion and I have chosen this field out of my own choice. It feels like I have grown up from a kid into an adult within a snap. However, all these feelings have so far had a positive impact on me. They are somehow making me more motivated and confident rather than depressed. And watching this video made me even more relived, that I'm not the only one going through all this. So, if you are a 1st year student too who is feeling overwhelmed with college, I want you to know that you'll get through it. Just hold on!

What ETH Zurich and RTX 3080 have in common? - You can watch about it on youtube. - You can dream to reach. And thats how far you gonna get if you are not %1. edit: But hey you can still have intel integrated right :D

even though people told me a cs degree is hard i couldn't comprehend how hard it actually was

Good luck Selin

Being a passout, from CS bachelor's, pretty much every one in their first year goes through, this stuff ... Because it's just a part of our life.

Başarılar Selin

She is beautiful.

She's a fun person

It took me 3 years to get past that point. Im six years in my chemistry bachelors, finishing it this semester, became a fitness instructor and finished a coding bootcamp, currently working as a junior developer :) Keep going, you will all make it.

Looking for your love and support ❤

It may not be the healthiest thing, but when I feel like I'm out of place, I let that fuel my ego and everything seems to work out.

Nice video

Well this is great now show someone that was not able to keep up what kind of road will these people take if they have the same dreams?

im sick of it too

Even at my last semester I used to still struggle with coding.

yeah im in my first semester now and I feel like I accidentally signed up for a PhD in fucking math or some shit

I have done master in computer science and its right smart people computer science.

Wherever I go to study,I think I am in the wrong place.

Tolles Video. Ist dies für Bachelor- oder Masterstudent?

i was architecture master student in ETH before and started CS this semester without any coding experience, FML

in 0:20 which IDE she is using?

Is quite hard

Does Selin study CS at ETH in English or German?

Can I join cs without zero knowledge

Hi

CS classes are the worst at this. You'll have people who have never coded before sitting next to people who have coded their whole lives, all because everyone has to take the same intro to programing courses.

Isvicre cok zor bir ulke, insallah basarili olursun. Iyi sanslar Selin.

It трябва да го имаш вътре в себе си за да го научиш2022

Lol i got a bachelors in engineering while working full time. GL lady! Glad she didnt go through what i went through because she would go bald like i did

This video was in youtube recommendation. Thought ETH was Ethereum

yani olması gerektiği gibi olmuş, alman lisesi sonrası almanyaya gitmek. abi çok tuhaf ya, sacma sapan bir ortaokul hayatı, sonra anadoluda bir lise.. çabala çabala çabala, eskiden ne yapayım benim payıma da bu düşmüş diyordum ama o kadar koymuyordu, simdi ne zaman desem icim 😣

Hey anna

Okay its good.But u need marks dude.U cannot apply anywhere if u have poor marks.After being selected, they will tell u its very easy to do.But no one will u, u have to work like hell to get there

Welcome to Computer Science, It is so hard independent your studying place. Maybe, If you study in Turkey It may more hard because you work also to stay at life against economy & unknown dangerouses at the same time. I hope so you will more succesfull and happy :))) ✨❇

As soon as I heard she likes to read, play Gitarre, go out with friends, I knew she is the wrong person for computer science.

Her english is really good for a Turk. I didn't know english proficiency was that high over there, maybe it's because she lives in switzerland, but i thought they spoke french and german in switzerland? (zurich is german, no?) In india, we learn programming starting from 9th standard, atleast if you take the central board, so most students have atleast written some simple BASIC programs by college and i think it helps. I never felt pressurized in my engineering course, except that in the 1st year we do chemistry, physics and other subjects which i think is kind of pointless.

Sorry but she's stunningly pretty

Nobody said she is beautiful so I am going to say it

Wow, she is damn beautiful.... now I'm feeling that I'm in the wrong place. I should be her batchmate.

The unfair advantage

She's hot!

I love diversity quotas. so much justice

Does anyone knows her instagram id or facebook or anything😅
