vying for CMU-INI

[kartick]

hey everyone
i am vying for an admission into cmu-ini's course.
but the problem is that my coding skills are not good so i have this apprehension as to whether i would be able to cope up with the work load.

for that matter if i want to get into any course involving networking and management....and my coding skills arent good so what should i do?

can one get to learn the necessary things after joining the universities??

pls reply as i wanna knw what measures should i take before taking this big step.

If you have will then you can succeed.. dont be afraid and apply to CMU.

You need programming skills to cope with that. Coding won't do.

I think that is a great point...and I would also add: Most of the learning that goes on in graduate school courses is due to the efforts of the student rather than the professor, TAs, etc. I think the most important thing schools do is just provide the motivational framework and certain standards of excellence, which is why I refuse to get a large student loan to pay for graduate school.

sorry but since i have not been comfortable with programming i was wanting to opt for a course in which i can do well...so can a guys give me a clear picture as to whether is it sensible taking so much of loan and risking it for a course which i knw requires a lot of coding.
should i do some course before hand in languages like c/c++ ? and my interests are networking and management so what other courses are there that i can apply for??

thanx all of u for replying
