Hi,

I didn't really know where to post this, but hopefully people here might be in a similar situation to me or have been.

I'm currently in a conversion course (H Dip) in IT/Computing and I have to admit the whole thing feels like building an plane while it's flying for me. Now I would be computer literate but did very little programming before so on my part this was a leap of faith in some ways.

Others on the course find it hard to, but the feedback we are getting from graduates, some of which went on to masters or took employments with one of the big name companies stressed that they felt the exact same way. But they worked at it and got through.

Anyone else here, maybe a graduate of these courses might offer some input.
