C++ Certificate Question

[ChaoL]

Hi, I plan to take this class through January to April (16 weeks). Can I enroll to this course any time in January?
And, I am working on my CV for quant programs application, how should I show this Certificate on my CV before I finish it (since I need 16 weeks to finish the course).
Last question, since I am a beginner in C++, what do you suggest me to read before enroll in this class. I heard C++ Primer Plus is a good book to read for beginner.

I personally advise:

A C++ book not yet.

Variables, values, how memory in C work a bit
What do compiler and linker do
The structure and contents of a C/C++ program
How to drive VS2012 product.

Practical, hands-on stuff.

And finally, it does no harm to study posts in

Thanks for your reply Daniel. I have submitted pre-register form. However, after I click "submit", after few seconds, the page just closed. Is that normal? What should I expect next?

You're welcome, achilo. Unfortunately, I can't help you with the form. I think @Andy Nguyen or @APalley know.

Lots of fun with the course!

Pre-register just puts you into the list of prospective students. If you would like to actually enroll, see this: https://www.quantnet.com/threads/c-enrollment.13366/

By the way, since I am working on my resume for quant program application right now, I want to know what should I put on my resume before I pass final exam. Thanks.

You mean, stating on CV that you are doing the C++ course, yes?

I personally would include it. Shows committment.
