cause currently i write programs in C#,vb.net,java,python(still learning)and J#.
i mastered HTML well. troubleshooting pc stuffs kinda ok.
but i just wonder does ngee ann poly look at portfolios such as CCA and competiton and blah blah blah? beside just plain GPA. Thx
fanaticx, why you select IT ? because you good at it ?
Here is the situation, most factories have move to china, a lot of firms are using ready software and people and IT spending have gone down, thus less customizing. - there is less requirement of programmers in the market.
Web - now with tools every tom dick and harry also can do .
Network and security is hot but you need to keep upgrading and certifiying.
What do you see yourself after 20years you still have to go one to get a degree - you think after 15 year there is still a market for programmer or PC guy at that age ? ...
Take up a newsapaper every sat and see the job section on IT - it will tell you how much job is there for IT - frankly very little .... go into something that got more demand. interest do not feed the family.
