Don't worry lol, they will tell you the course content in the course. Your job is to understand it then, not ahead of time. Just know it's required.
idk what more to tell you. i'd advise you to get this book and spend the summer on it. there's a lot of shit in CS but it all comes in 'layers'. this book goes layer by layer. it will get your head clearer about what you're getting yourself into. https://www.amazon.com/Invitation-Computer-Science-MindTap-Course-ebook/dp/B00TKNH9RA
here's the brutal truth, a career in programming won't be a very fun one if you're not good at CS. those who are really good already know their shit, before coming to university or even without going to university. start catching up to those young kids already programming in big companies without any damn degree lol. this catching up is what you're really doing while you're getting your CS credits and degree. it's to indicate that you might be able to do what some people just demonstrate, by having a huge amount of learning evident: the ability to pass technical interviews and impressive completed projects by the time they're 17, and then by performing great at work. kinda like the nba players drafted right out of high school vs the ones doing it for free 4 years first in ncaa
You'd need a considerable amount of room for your graphics tablet unless you disable your keyboard. Second year comp eng courses have a lot of people in them, so you might be stuck in DSQ, LIB 072 or ENG 103 for some courses.
As for graphics tablets, I prefer Wacom ones, since they have better pressure sensitivity and response. I mostly use my graphics tablet to do illustration, so you might not need all those levels of sensitivity. The Intuos and Intuos Pro are both great graphics tablets, but they're kinda pricey. If you can find their old Bamboo Splash/Capture ones, they're also pretty nice and cheaper than their Inutos line. This Huion one is pretty value since you get 12 macros you can program to do common commands (undo, redo, etc).
