Well if you have a certain goal, then choose according to that, but if not you really should think about which job you want to have. With a certain goal decisions are much easier.
If you want to work at CS area, maybe you should look for jobs that don't require university or another education institute where you can get a CS degree. -
@FilipeRamalho in terms of a job.do you think anyone will hire me ,a self taught developer without a degree?
-
@zmzmuazzam98 I don't how the job market is in South Africa. \_O_o_/ But having a portfolio and doing internships would certainly help.

PS I do have a small portfolio in web development.I also love Linux systems administration.

C0D4669026y@zmzmuazzam98 Hi from a self taught, full stack developer with no degree - in Australia.l, where degrees are “everything”.
Although I don’t know how the jobs are in SOuth Africa, but if CS is a field you want to be in, there’s always a way to make it happen. -
@zmzmuazzam98 Basically you have market yourself to the companies. They must want you to hire you, so work towards that.

Ok please guys I need a little help here.
So I'm in my second year of my Computer science course and all subjects except one went well.So I failed my first year maths module so I decided to redo it and study much harder.Low and behold I worked really hard towards passing the exam but it was still extremely difficult.So I haven't gotten my mark and all but if I do fail it again I will not be able to continue in this University.I do not have a plan B at all and I really don't know what to do.I live in South Africa(if that's relevant).So basically if I pass I'll continue with the course but the question is what do I do if I don't pass.should I start working or try another degree at another University which will be another 4 years.PS I'm heading for 20 years old in a few weeks time.I appreciate anyone who gives any feedback.
