Ask HN: Prerequisite CS classes for a competitive PhD?

5 pointsby HedgehogAmpabout 7 years ago
I’m a junior CS major at a small liberal arts college. I’m worried that my school’s limited offerings would not make me a competitive candidate at top-tier CS schools. What are some classes I should take to increase my chances?

Random advice from the internet:<p>Talk to people at the programs at which you are interested. Start establishing relationships with the people you may be spending a lot of time with. Get specific <i>relevant</i> information. Good luck.
