What are the prerequisites for taking CS001x?

Learning CS001x: Intro to Computer Science
#1

I’m a high school student that’s interested in CS but I don’t have any skills or knowledge in the domain yet.

  • Is there a chance I could manage to complete this course? :thinking:
  • Do you have any recommendations for resources I could go through before the course starts on 2019-08-21T18:30:00Z?

  1. There are no prerequisites, you can jump right in :slightly_smiling_face:

  2. You could choose this time to try to program on your own. Take tutorials to start and learn syntax. Then try some projects online and build up from there. This is an optional step but it can help you if you have a lot of free time on your hands!

Hope that helps!
