How do you graduate from high school to go to college?

Question

IT education

Good evening. To enter a good institute for technical education (IT-engineer, programmer) how do you need to finish school? Do you need a good certificate? Or is the Unified State Examination enough, but for the time being, you can put a bolt on your studies, but then prepare? (In order to avoid a ton of criticism, I explain: I want to give up on my studies so that I can devote more time to web programming)

Answer 1

Estimates are of last importance after the state. Olympiads and USE. And you don't have to worry about studying. You can still learn the web.

Answer 2

To get an education (not for certificates, certificates, admission, etc.) you need a head on your shoulders and a lot, a lot of work, primarily independent.

Answer 3

web programming will not help you with admission.

Answer 4

The average score of the certificate is taken into account if, according to the USE, two (or more) people have the same scores, and there are few unoccupied places left. Then they will take a person whose average mark of the certificate is higher.
In addition, the average score can be useful when applying abroad and for employment while studying at a university. Western universities and cool employers (both abroad and in Russia) often set a certain limit for the average score, and people whose score does not reach this limit are not considered. Why do they do it? Because the higher the average score, the more horizons a person has, the more responsibility he can take. For example, not just programming, but also in the future to communicate with the customer (in competent Russian, and preferably in English) both in writing and orally, grow towards managing a team, towards understanding the business in general (for this, knowledge of economics, finance, marketing, logistics and other fields of knowledge).
In general, I would advise you to take the maximum from the school. Especially in subjects taught by really good teachers. For the rest, you can not apply extra efforts, but try to get "4". Well, in general, at least these subjects will be useful for IT: computer science, mathematics, physics, English, Russian. The rest of the subjects are already important as broadening one's horizons. And the outlook will not only increase the value of a specialist in the labor market (due to good English and other strong knowledge), but will also open up more opportunities, because there are practically no IT companies that are focused specifically on the IT sphere itself (like JetBrains companies developing products for programmers). Most companies are focused on developing programs for other industries (not for IT): for transport, for education, for logistics, for trade, etc. To work in such companies, it will be necessary not only to have deep technical knowledge and higher technical education, but sooner or later to study the industry itself. This is where non-IT knowledge comes in handy. For example, if you go to a company that develops programs for transport, then knowledge of mechanics, drawing will come in handy ... Maybe even geography ... The more horizons you have, the easier it will be when looking for a job to apply for a job in such a specialized company and develop the knowledge necessary to work in it.
So learn technical subjects + Russian + English on "5", for the rest try to get the maximum outlook at school, so that later it would be easier to deepen your knowledge.
And if you want to be a serious specialist, then learn Java/C#/.NET. (If you start not with them, but with scripting languages ​​like JS / PHP, etc., then it will be more difficult to relearn, bad practices will be remembered.) Study data structures, algorithms, computer architecture, networks. If all this is interesting, then choose the specialty "Informatics and Computer Engineering".

Answer 5

Formally, it is necessary to pass the exam (all) not for deuces. With deuces for the Unified State Examination, they won’t even take you to the fence-building institute for money.
For example, you can’t approach Moscow State University with less than 280 for the exam - they will laugh.
