What jobs can I look for after completing the 2?
So do the python course first? Not x?
Thank you for the videos, great contents and they are very helpful! Keep up the grind!
You saying that doing these courses I'll acquire all industry knowledge? And will be ready for a job?
@@bexst24 You'll get the basics. Then start building your portfolio. With your portfolio and these basics, you can starting applying for entry level jobs.
Cannot stress enough that you can take as much time as you want to finish this course. I am a slow learner and started mid 2022 I averaged 1 month for every week in the original course as well as taking breaks, at the end of the day I still have the same mastery of the content (and MORE) and am now on the final week problem set. It doesn't matter your rate of learning if by the end you have the same mastery of all the concepts as someone who can ace each week in a literal week.
100% agree
I started the course a week ago and im week 5 currently
@@SharkiOP you are amazing please tell me how i can be as amazing as you?
@@SharkiOPwhat was the point of this comment under the OP’s comment? Like? Do u want a Scooby snack?
I disagree, with all due respect I think everyone must set themselves a deadline so they could hold themselves accountable. I do see your point tho.
I do agree the education is great free.. but one of the biggest things about paying for the courses is that EdX is a non-profit that allows these cources for free from many different schools and organizations... so being able to support that mission.. and supporting a platform that makes it easier to find those courses should be something to consider.
This is true.
However their prices (300 dollars for a course certiifcate) are absurd for any person that's not from the US or similary wealthy EU countries.
Think about a person from South America for example: that certificate would cost an entire salary or more. There's just no way.
@@mq1995Yep.
agreed but as a 19 year old that struggles with employment due to disability and literally doesn't have the money. its a great option.
i dont have the money and there are many ppl like me that want to learn and complete this course but cant buy it
I was interested in the certificate because they described it as a "small fee". I think of a small fee being around 50 - 100$, NOT 300$. Even as someone living in the US, that's crazy expensive.
I started CS50 Main Course, but this roadmap makes much more sense. My main goal is to learn Java because it's the most common programming language in the industry where I'm based, but I will start with Python anyways and follow the steps mentioned in this video. Thank you so much for this content, it's amazing.
It's the perfect choice if you want to learn and get a job as soon as possible, but while working in something else and studying in the spare time.
+ Easier learning curve
+ Your own time
+ Free Certification
- Less chances to give up during the road
Starting today and hopefully will come back in 1 year to share more news. Don't give up and trust in your dreams.
honestly when it comes to python and java its very similar. Python has more libraries so really is a great choice for beginners. I started with python, took a course in java, went back to python, and back on java. so pretty interchangeable.
How can you get the free certificate, it does not redirect me to the actual harvard cs50 web page.
How's it going buddy?
@@benmorales5912 I encounter the same issue with you, but if you go to the next course after introduction (which is Functions, and Variable) and click link Problem set 0 it will direct you to the actual link. So there is free certificate from harvard (only if you pass 70% of assignments) and verified certificate by edx (it's more professional, but you must pay USD 300)
This was magical content for me - I just *cannot* afford the EDX fee for receiving a certificate but knew I needed to somehow validate what I had studied. Thank you so much!!!
hi! are there any deadlines in course if i enter it?
@@tachikaze.yes and no
your technical deadline is the end of the year, but you can pick right back up where you left off in the next year
@@FuraFaolox will we stillget the certificate if we finish next year?
@@menghao4576 i believe so yes
Right now, it is totally free through Verizon
This was incredibly helpful for getting that first step down so thank you!
I'm on week 8 on cs50 after almost a year on and off. Literally hanging on by a thread here and this video has given me some hope. I'm giving you a sub man! 😭
Please help me! Give me some suggestions on how to keep up while there's alot of stuff on your plate.
@@fi-losopher I usually take 1-2 hrs before my lectures so I have to be up by five
. If you're going to do this try going through the video during the day, it's harder not to fall asleep in the morning when you're coding as uposed to watching a 2hr long video. If it's not a particularly stressful day I just take another hour before bed. That's of course only after an episode of my favourite series. Rewards help. Don't overwhelm yourself, if you're trying to solve a problem and you've been at it for more than an hour just rest and get back to it later. If you keep pushing and you don't get anywhere you might find it hard to start a session next time.
keep studying 😠
Thats honestly sad, hope you pull it together though
Yo, any update?
thank you so much!!! from now on this is my favorite youtube channell❤️❤️❤️
Amazing vid, all doubts are clear now, thank you so much ❤
Amazing intro video to CS50, cleared it up for me!! Thanks!
Hey just wanted to say thank your for your video. I enrolled in the intro to python. You prompted action in me and I am grateful!
Found this video as I've started CS50x with NO programing experience but your video is so helpful and thank you for showing me I can get the certificate for free!
Looks like the website has changed and now you can't bypass the EDX to get a free certificate
You are a friend to everyone. Thank you so much!
Hear hear! His videos are very thoughtful and kind and helpful!
Thanks a lot man, really appreciated.
how long did you took to finish the course ??
man i'am really greatful to you don't give a fuck about anything other than you help people don't mind the number of views , really thank you
this is solid gold.
I'm gonna follow your tip man, specially because I was already looking after on CS50 (main course).
Going to take the python one first, then main, then web.
I'll put this shit on my calendar and I hope coming here till' the end of the year to share my results with people that might come here.
@skysesshomaru hows it coming along?
so how was it?
hows it going
Update ???
You lied 😂😢
Thanks, very helpfull. I got stuck at the main course too and then got lost in python selflearning - without cs50. Good advice. Will Start again 😊
Thank you so much, you have no idea how helpful this is.
Really admire what you're doing here man! Great advice!
Thank you so much for this. I had already given up in frustration on the CS50 intro course, but now I am feeling really inspired to start again, following your advice here. Much appreciated!
Did you start?
@@harikeshansundaramoorthy9896 Yes, I have, though not done much yet. I signed up, watched the first Python video only and made notes (though I'm not sure if there's any point doing that, as there are slides to look back on?). I waited for the New Year to begin!
This makes a lot of sense, sir, I am a 27 years old guy from a far town in Mexico and I am driven to learn ¡thank you so much for this! 🙌🙌🙌
You’re awesome! I love the way you explain things!
@Kombina thank you so much for these great sources. Is there any other courses?? From Harvard or MIT, Princeton, stanford??
Cannot thank you enough dear brother from another country. Thank you for taking time to give me an insight on why leaning more is important. Love from India !
Hey man, I normally nevet comment on any videos but this video is the best one I have seen on how to start peogramming. I just wanted to thank you for this video.
Awesome, thank you!
Amazing information, thanks! you earned a new sub
Thank you so much for explaining the best structure, I think when we are given so many options it makes it tough to identify where and which course to begin with so this really helps, thank you
Thank you so much for the instructions. I’m going to start the course today with this guidance ❤ hopefully, everything would turn out well
Did you start the course
Awesome roadmap...thanks for sharing bro :)
Thank you so much for this. I’ve been looking for where to start with getting back into programming and CZcams is awash with dizzying directions to take, all of which cost a small fortune that I don’t have because I need to feed my two daughters. This was presented as clear as can be and it’s something finally within my budget which could possibly open the door to later on being able to afford to invest more than time only. This is appreciated
Hey wishing you much success. I was in a similar situation in 2020 and coding helped me change things around. All the best.
You are now my brother I love you for this thank you so much it’s going to change my life!
thanks for your instructions, I'm going to start this course today, shout out to your great work and invaluable guidance !
How is the course going
You're a good man. Thank you
Hi :) I had left a comment months ago on your channel when I started CS50's main course and got SO STUCK shortly after. In week one already. I've been preparing to get back on the horse so your video is very timely for me to find. I'm going to try this route, thanks so much.
Same here, I'd previously stopped at week 4 and after watching this video I decided to get back on track tomorrow. Good luck to us!
Do you wanna share our results here gradually? Let's see if we can keep ourselves motivated
@@deviousraulhey explain me about deadline,can we continue when ever we want , are there any deadline for assessment
@@krishnachaitanya8095 the only deadline is December 31st, it's when they update the course and replace it to the latest recording, but i think that if you didn't finish the course on time like i will end up doing with CS50P (i'm still on lesson 4) you can just start the new one after January 1st from where you left off, maybe just send the assignments again since it's always the same problem sets. There are no deadlines for the assessments, you can do it on your time.
@@deviousraul thanks 👍
Amazing info! Thank you for the content!
Thank you for the programming track. 🙏🏾💯
thank you very much for this roadmap I was about to start with the main course lol 😭 but now I will start with cs50 python thank you so much!!
Super FREAKING useful bro! Thank you for this 💪💪💪
i really appreciate for putting so much time and effort. It really helped a lot.
im bout to subscribe!! and i will keep yall updated on my progress
Any updates?
Update?
I am about to give up CS50x , i stumbled upon your advice and i am going to start the CS50 python and then give CS50x another chance after that. I really hope i can do this. Thank you!
You're awesome man. Thank you so much!
Cheers!
this is quite amazing i’m shocked, ty for the video and tips
appreciate this content man
that was what I exactly looking for, thanks for the video☺
excellent explanations, buddy. Subscribed!
Hats Off to you sir. You earned my subscription! ❤
Great video! I was thinking of taking the course on vacations, but I will definitely try and take the python course first. Thanks for the advice!
Thanks for this. I'm so stuck in CSS right now, and have been kind of bouncing around. Will definitely use this as my template
What is your problem ? I might as well Going to take cs50 ..didn't knew it was hot .. might take a shot ..though I have some experience
Thanks for the intel man!
Love the video! Doing the course this year!
Best wishes!
This is the first video that I see and I subscribed immediately. You explain well and seem like a very genuine person
So they give certificate for free or anything else could you answer me
czcams.com/video/vuDYuRm8gPM/video.html
Thank you! Cheers!
The best roadmap, bro thank you so much
Thank you for your hints!!!
This is great information thank you for taking the time to share this, as a person that is starting CS50 with python it game me a clearer picture of what to do.
Did you finish the course
Life got in the way for a bit so restarting it in February. Thank you for following up means a great deal. :) @@harikeshansundaramoorthy9896
amazing explanation and tips, thank you very much
Thanks for detailed explanation!
Hey this video was very helpful! Thank you for this!
And also, I don't know much about the education of universities in US, I mean many people say that university education is boring and all these stuff, I want to know if this is the same with CS 50?
Thanks in advance :)
Thank you,I just started,week 1🤗
Gracias, estoy empezando CS50 y me parece muy bueno, pero no tenia muy claro lo del certificado gratis. Thank you very much. I Follow now
great video! thanks so much for sharing this insight.
Thank you sooooo much, I didn't know this! I am half way through my course and I face exactly the same hurdle when I got to Python despite the fact that I already have Python experience. I just didn't know the certificate was free. This gives me so much more drive you have no idea. Thank you, thank you very much. :)
dude let me know if you can get this certificate for free because I am worried about it
same
@@alperen880
did you ever get it for free?
Free, indeed I just completed my program. But, Harvard does not just give you a free certificate. Their reputation is on the line. It will cost you, your effort, time, and dedication. It is not easy at all. One of the hardest things I have ever done and I am a solutions architect expert. The success rate for CS50x is 0.9%. I hope you become one of us too.@@Jonny23
Sem
Thank you for doing this! I feel like this will save me valuable time.
Cheers!
Thank you for sharing this for i now have a new found confidence because of your recommendation
Beautiful content, thank you!
yes🤣
Thank you so much for the instructions. This video is on point❤
Cheers!
A comprehensive video, very thoughtful.
Hope you enjoyed
THANK YOU FOR THIS!!!❤
This is great! I am taking CS50P now as my main course and going slower with CS50W. I have lots of time this month so it’s working out for me. Last year I tried only CS50X and sadly I gave up. I found it difficult and then felt lost and got tired. But now this way I’m way much stronger. Already week 5 of python. And wow. I have learnt really so much
I had the same issue with CS50s main course. There are actually youtube videos that show you step by step how to solve many of the pets etc.. that people get stuck on. As long as you make sure to comprehend WHY the code works instead of simply copy pasting and moving on, you still learn the concepts quite well.
I would definitely recommend going back to the main course at some point as it really helps you to get the understanding of multiple different skillets that aren't in just the python course etc..
Good progress wishing you all success my friend
@@scleless1342 True, I am still planning to take it at some point right after I finish these two (Still going strong, almost done)
@@techthief3278 Thanks very much, same! Still working towards it.
Hey can I do this course on my phone as I don't have a laptop yet
This was so helpful! Thanks a lot!
Now there's even a scratch course for the newbie which i think is a great start to get familiar with programming thinking. Thanks for your advice and your great content
Did you take the scratch course?
@Kidrobot016 No, i didn't but it's a good start though 👌
@Axel.The.Conqueror I'm taking it now. It's slow paced but it helps you understand concepts at a high level. Very beginner friendly. I'd recommend to anyone with absolutely no experience in coding or programming.
@Kidrobot016 wish you good luck 🙏🙏
@@Kidrobot016Hi, can you tell me where to find the scratch course?
Love your content buddy!
This is exactly where I just hit a wall. I'm on week 2.5 and feeling confused when I realized that there is actual course materials and tests and all to go along with the freecodecamp video for CS50 and then I was like, what is edx and all this other stuff... Thank you!

Thanks Kombina amazing advice
I'm currently doing the foundations on Odin Project but thinking of checking out CS50. Thanks for this roadmap.
Torn between this road map (CS50) and Odin Project. What's your take on the Odin Project so far?
@@dougxdevelopment Odin Project throws you in the deep end right away. I don't know about CS50 but Odin makes you do the work unlike all these tutorials. From what I heard from some people, Odin is more geared towards getting a job and CS50 is to understand computer science concepts better. So far Odin has been good but challenging. I think I'll stick to Odin for now and maybe do CS50 later.
Thank you so much for this video. I've started a Python course on Udemy, but I think I'll go onto the Havard one now and do it in the order you recommend.
Dont waste your time on udemy
Bruh is these all courses are free?
@@V.D. I assume you are a well accomplished software engineer for you to confirm udemy is unnecessary?
omg thank u so much.i started cs50's main course and i got stuck in the first scratch project.I was really thinking about going to a different industry until this video came up.God bless u man.
Hi bro, I am about to start the course, is is best to start with Python like he said? I am so nervous tbh and feel like I won't succeed at all
You will succeed brother.Take the python course first as he said
I d like to share my thought about it, i think udemy has great courses as well. I tried following harvard course about python but i could not stay as focused as I am now on other resources. I might come back when I ll have all the knowledge and finish this course as well for the sake of different prospective, and ehy not , also the Harvard certificate
Thank you so much brother , I have actually enrolled in the cs50 python yesterday
Thank you very much for the advice bro!
I had to take a two week break after weeks 0,1, and 2.
I still need to turn in my scratch project.
Life gets busy with kids and work, but I try to spend at least one to two hours a day whether after work or on my lunch break on studying and doing cs50.
So grateful and thankful they offer this to us all.
Also, thanks for saving me 200 bucks, not I just need to finish my course.
Thanks for the insight.
I do one hour every week every morning, with rubber duck debugger it’s waaay easier
whats that
@@sorryboss8550
@@sorryboss8550 I had to look up rubber duck debugger, as I wondered if some kind of app, and what do I do! Do you have to get an actual rubber duck and talk to it?
Just starting these courses, I use to work in web development but moved across in to design but now I'm moving back towards development and project management. This video re-enforced my decision to start working through these courses, and I was going to pay.....lol
this is super helpful. thank you!!
You're so welcome!
I appreciate your input as I want to create a portfolio.
Amazing info.. really a good roadmap to learn.
Shkoyach!!
Will follow your gameplan..
Thank you. It was highly informative.
we gotta keep the grind going
Great video! Thank you so much for your help. God bless you
I tried to do the main course and couldn't get through it because school and work left me very little time. I have decided to specifically focus on python(I want to focus on AI/ML) and started to do some research and came across this video. Thank you so much for this.
Same for me. I need this structured path to learn python. I’ve learned a little through reading and basics but this should be hreat
Did u take the course
Thank you, it's really helped me...😇💐
thank you for this video💯
I’m like a newborn baby in this world,I know this will help me a lot.thank you so much for showing this
Great vid. Thank you
Thanks for this, i was looking at this but not the correct path way for me. Great info about how to understand all these courses.
Cheers!
Ty for the instructions. ❤

Thanks alot for your sincere advise❤
