I'm about to start a CS degree and I've never written a single line of code in my life or know jack shit about computers. How fucked am I?

Don't worry, it's not to late.
Start tanning and using fake tans.
Grow your hair out and tease it.
Start hormone replacement therapy.
you'll be fine as long as you actually study. if you want to get a head start in the 2 months before class, you could start becoming familiar with discrete math if you aren't already

You will be alright as long as you have the mind to do math.
You'll be fine. I was in the same position and got through first year doing very little work (not recommended). I'm probably fucked for second year though, unless I actually start studying

Thanks man. I'll definitely look at this.

My math is okay. I got good grades in high school without really putting in any effort. I didn't do honours or anything though.

I guess I'll just have to stop being a lazy motherfucker and actually start putting some effort in then.

>How fuck am i?
This depends on a few things:
1) Are you under the age of 30?
2) Do you have a genuine interest in learning it?
If the answer is yes to both you'll be fine.

Mfw same situation as you
if you study you will do alright iwas in the same situation as you and im doing alright
just study

They'll ease you into it. You'll be taking lib arts and math classes for at least a year. Then much more math.
>>55413396
I've met CS grads who couldn't code and knew jack shit about computers, so I'm sure you'll be fine.

What uni?
