My degree plan for TESU BA in CS; thoughts/recs?
#61
I'm halfway through my 15cr term at TESU! ~6 weeks left... the end is in sight.

Main question for this post: I've wanted to take the final exam for the CIS-1070 e-Pack for a long time now (especially after having learned that it was arguably the easiest e-Pack/TECEP), but I got second thoughts recently after finding out that certain others found that they barely passed, even with studying. I got a 72% on the practice final exam. I need a 60% to pass. Should I take a little more time to get familiar with the Microsoft Office apps? I feel like that'd be the highest-yield place to learn at this time since I'm already very familiar with Google Workspace. I just extrapolated what I knew from that and did pretty alright.

Here's a detailed look at how I did too, if that helps:
  • Claim 1 // Utilize basic functions of a desktop-based operating system. (12 questions) 83%
  • Claim 2 // Perform basic skills using word processing software. (17 questions) 71%
  • Claim 3 // Perform basic skills using presentation software. (16 questions) 81%
  • Claim 4 // Perform basic skills using spreadsheet software. (15 questions) 53%
  • Claim 5 // Explain how computers are used in the business environment. (3 questions) 100%
  • Claim 6 // Distinguish between system software and user software. (5 questions) 100%
  • Claim 7 // Describe communication networks. (9 questions) 56%
  • Claim 8 // Summarize the functions of database management systems. (8 questions) 38%
  • Claim 9 // Explain system and program development. (3 questions) 67%
  • Claim 10 // Examine security, privacy, and ethical concerns in IT. (4 questions) 100%
  • Claim 11 // List the hardware components of a computer. (5 questions) 80%
  • Claim 12 // Summarize the functions of various peripheral devices. (3 questions) 100%
  • Overall assessment result 72%

Side question for this post: It's been tough at times throughout this term because I'm not too sure how thorough I should be in my writings for the Cornerstone, the Capstone, and Software Engineering (SWE). At times, it feels like I'm doing the bare minimum since I'm skipping most (if not, all) of the module readings, not revising for quality, etc. On the other hand though, particularly with the Capstone and SWE, sometimes I really do desire making something actually substantive, so I take a lot of time to read things/listen to videos re: whatever I'm talking about.

One poster I saw here even said they finished SWE in 20 hours; what?! So awesome. I don't know if that's in the cards for me, but if it isn't, that's totally alright. If it is possible though and I'm just spending too much time on the reading/writing, then I should learn where I can tone it down a bit.
