Well I just took my midterm for Intro Computer Science and got a 59%. This is very frustrating because Ive received 100% on all assignments and I feel like I am starting to get an understanding of the subject.
However, this isn’t like mathematics or science where you can grind problems. It seems more like a history exam where you need to memorize a lot of stuff which I have no problem with, but I dont know what to memorize.
Most of the questions were of the type- “what statement would you write in this blank space to have your program do XYZ.”
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to prepare for these exams? I havent asked my professor yet but Im just putting my feelers out to get some different ideas.
