Hi everyone! My name is Emma! I make vlogs and random vids. My goal is to get monetized, so please subscribe and like the vids you watch! You can find me on TikTok where I post what I cook and some silly vids @ebooooooooo :)
honestly props that you can even admit that your previous internship was through a personal connection a lot of people that make videos like this wouldnt be caught dead admitting that.
How many Leetcode problems did you do. I struggle with Leetcode. I can’t solve mediums in 20min. Mediums take me like an hour to solve (if I can even solve the problem)
just do as much as you can and if it's a harder problem, just make sure you understand the solution. not necessarily the exact code but the type of problem so you can recognize it later!
Tufts is very prestigious, and a member of the NESCAC, the “Little Ivies.” It's one of the best Unis in the country. Not sure why you are trying to downplay that fact
I was just looking at Microsoft Today on the career section in Texas, as a non tech or even engineering degree, I have a marketing degree and going the self taught way.. thank a for the video❤
@@EmmaBoersma UPDATE : I had a 10 minute convo with a recruiter, just to explain that I'll have a 1 hour interview... But I don't know why after few days before the interview, they finally decided to cancel it :/
Hey Emma, I found your video very informative and helpful! I'm soon starting my Sophomore Year as a CS|Cybersecurity major and I want to ensure I'm taking the right steps to land a SWE Internship. I believe a really important course I'll be taking this semester is Data Structures and Algorithims! Anyways, I have two questions, how should I prepare during my Sophmore Year and how did you?
@@SpaceRipper I think taking data structures is a good for sophomore year! If you can I would also take algorithms just to get a head start on the interview process
Oh totally, I'm in the same boat. I went ahead and applied directly for the CEO position at Alphabet. Now it's just a matter of acing that little interview!
@@jacobchoi6554 multiple internships at multiple tech companies after one hour of watching a video on RU-vid lol lol lolllllll 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 ROBOTS GO CRAZY THESE DAYS
I graduated in 2019 and searched tufts on youtube just to see what people are saying about it lol... I agree with this video. I think its important to be in a club or team at tufts. I guess that's true for any school, but I can see how it would be really isolating, even depressing honestly compared to a big public university if you're not part of some kind of group. I disagree about Boston tho. Boston is a cool city and I would go into it pretty regularly to explore and do stuff.
this was such a good review 100% agree but dining hall is above average for college food from what I've heard. the tufts community is totally the best part tho like its unlike any other and gonna miss it so much. like everyone here is so so smart and genuinely passionate about things and its just so fun to get to know people
also people are always wearing tufts merch tbh but not in a school spirit way in a herd mentality we all have the same sweatshirt and free sweatpants way
I'm a high school senior with 3 days left to pick between committing tufts and rutgers. To attend tufts I would have to take out ~$160k in loans, whereas rutgers I'd be debt free. I'm also just like you because I'm majoring in CS (and a double major in Quant Econ) and want to go into industry immediately after undergrad. Do you think tufts is worth that much money? Will there be a positive ROI/is this worth the investment? I visited tufts and really really loved it; if cost wasn't an issue I would 110% be committed. I feel like if I went to rutgers I would be significantly more miserable. but this may be first time impression bias, and just a lack of knowledge. and if possible, I can leave my email here too and I would love to be able to ask you some more questions!

I can’t say for sure what your personal experience would be at either school, esp since I don’t know anything about Rutgers. All I can speak on is my experience at Tufts specifically, which is obv highlighted in the video. As for whether it would be worth the investment, that depends on your ability to get a high-paying job/internships. Tufts isn’t well-known for CS or Econ, but is rather well known among recruiters so that could help with resume screening. But the rest is up to you and how much time and energy you dedicate to the interview process-something that won’t change based on the school you go to. If you feel like you have that sort of drive, then go for Tufts, knowing you will have to work hard to pay off your loans in the future. Otherwise, play it safe, don’t stress yourself out, and go with Rutgers; and make it as special as you can. (I suppose you could always transfer if you hate it too lol.) either way, it is what you make of it. Good luck!
though i will say i personally think tufts campus is beautiful, some building interiors are just old. its nice having an actual campus compared to other schools in boston
very accurate 👍🏼especially want to emphasize how friendly and collaborative everyone (professors, staff, students) at tufts is!! i’ve been so happy w my time here and am so sad to graduate 😢
