I'm a sophomore CS major at UTD. I know C++ and Java, I'm joining clubs, I'm prepping for interviews, and I'm working on a project, but I don't have an internship yet. Everyone around me seems to be building apps, doing cybersecurity stuff, and doing research, clubs, and mentorship all at once, and I don't know how they have time for it all. I've also been using ChatGPT a lot on my project and I'm scared I'm not really learning. I feel lost and don't know what I'm missing. What should I prioritize first to be competitive for internships next summer? How do people balance everything, and are there sophomore programs I should apply to? Any advice helps, thank you!
