Is CS a science or engineering, or maybe something else?

RE: Is CS a science or engineering, or maybe something else?
Talk about asking questions you really don't want answered.....
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Then again, I didn't cheat my way through, either.

And, if you think that I cheated my way through the university, why do you think it took me 5 years to finish a 3-years degree? If I was cheating a lot, don't you think it would have taken me only 3 years?

Considering your self-admitted level of incompetency, I'm guessing that without cheating you never would have finished.

Maybe you're a clever cheater. Presenting a plausible facade of incompetence all the while using illicit means to advance as needed.

"Entry-level" is the word you're looking for.

But I fail to see that other students at my university are more competent to work in the industry. If anything, I think most of them are even less competent than I am.

Is that an assessment made based upon your competence evaluating such things?

So, what you're saying is, in essence, Croatian university graduates are all incompetent.

Do I have that right?
