Thanks, I'm into tutorial hell from last 5 years, moving from one tutorial to another LOL. I agree with "too many expectation" thing, I need to lower it down. Right now stuck b/w Harvard CS50 vs TheOdinProject. One helps for stronger CS skills and core programming concepts and another one to become fullstack developer.. :( I want both

I'm mentoring a student who was stuck between CS50 and TOP too! I recommend sticking with one or the other. You don't have to follow both courses at the same time, otherwise you'll run the risk of spreading yourself too thin.

Thanks James,

I'm thinking to continue with TOP, and pause CS50. I guess, I can build many things without DS & Algo stuff, and I can learn them later when I am get used to programming.

Your suggestions are welcome if any for me.

Cheers :)
