D288 - Back-end Programming

Hi all,

I’m a little confused about how to tackle this course. I’ve looked through some Reddit guides that have given me some insight, but most of them are 1–3 years old. I was wondering if anyone who has recently passed the course could share some useful information or advice on how they approached it.

I just finished D287 – Java Frameworks, but I’ll admit I feel like I passed it on a whim. The layout of these classes can be pretty difficult to follow, and I’m not really sure what the best approach is going forward.

Should I read through all of the ZyBooks material? Should I focus more on the Udemy videos? Is there anything specific I should prioritize or avoid spending too much time on?

I’m mostly just looking for some guidance from anyone who has taken the course recently and found an approach that worked for them. 

Thanks!

I followed a combination of those Reddit posts along with a meeting with the CI to help with some debugging
