First Java AP Computer Science Exam Complete

Posted by timothy on from the summer-approaches dept.

BlindSpy writes "Yesterday, Tuesday May 4th, high-school students all over the U.S. took the first-ever Advanced Placement Computer Science College Board exam based on Java. The exam is given as an opportunity for high-school students to earn college credit in programming. The test is based on whichever language colleges are looking for, which signifies a significant step for Java. In past years, the exam has been based on C++ (1 year) and Pascal (around 10 years)." If you took the exam, what were your impressions?

  9. frankly, why are young people still doing CS? by Cryofan · · Score: 0, Troll

    As a CS major myself, I am amazed at the number of CS majors these days. Why bother? There are virtually NO entry level jobs for CS majors! There are some for the very experienced, but that is about it. THere are still some jobs for admins. THat would seem a more suitable goal.

    Come to think of it, why are so many people still wasting their good young years and mortgaging their future on getting a BA/BS? There is a huge oversupply of such people already.....

    Just goes to show you the power to propaganda and the power of inertia.
