My journey into the world of coding began during the fall semester of my final year pursuing a degree in biochemistry at Hunter College. What I discovered in that introductory computer science class was nothing short of transformative. It ignited a creative spark within me and presented challenges that I found more invigorating than many of the courses I had encountered in my biochemistry program.<\/p>\n<p>This initial exposure to coding led me to enroll in a second computer science course during the spring semester, where I delved even deeper into the subject, exploring an entirely new language and developing a fresh set of skills. As I absorbed knowledge throughout the last year of my biochemistry degree, I couldn&#8217;t help but be captivated by the world of technology and the exciting career opportunities it offered. So much so, that I decided to set aside my aspirations of attending medical school and instead pursue a path at OSU.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout my time at OSU, my passion for coding continued to flourish with each new class presenting fresh opportunities for learning and growth. As I approach my final semester here, I am eager and ready to acquire new skills, furthering my journey in the tech field.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello everyone, I&#8217;m Amit Chawla, and I&#8217;m thrilled to welcome you to my tech blog, &#8220;Final Countdown.&#8221; The name holds a special significance as this marks my last semester at OSU.
