So uhh... Whats wrong with CS again? I feel like it would be a worthwhile degree and would give me plenty of spare time to work on side projects as a hobby while attending school. Whats your take on CS as a degree?
I would love to self teach but the only way i could support my self with my high school diploma is to work a full time job not leaving much freetime to pursue that goal.

This is all assuming you actually have a passion for coding and would work hard to further yourself through education.
Pic is unrelated, just some spam i was cooking up.

Literally nothing is wrong with cs. Anybody that tells you otherwise doesn't know what they're talking about

If you judge a degree purely on employability and potential earning like some sort of autistic there are better options.

It's perfectly fine as an academic field though and if you do it at a decent uni it will be interesting and rewarding.

>work on side projects

Get a side job at a helpdesk at your Uni instead.

Outside of Sperg Valley, people would much rather have a business reference than a github page.

Just make sure you're cool with math or you'll hate it. You'll have to do proofs.

Nothing only dumb codemonkeys/webdevs will tell you otherwise while they remain at the bottom rung of the ladder or unemployed.
>>
Because it's just like any other desk job where you have to meet people and socialize 90% of the time with the added burden of solving boring problems for people you don't care about

Wow not the results i was expecting from you guys i appriciate the input, was looking at A&M university which is one of the best in Texas, they have a few tech degrees mainly CS, and two versions of CE. One focuses more on CS and one focuses more on EE. Trying to decide wether the Cs focused CE degree would be better as i would get more insight as to the hardware that my software would be running on as well as a 20k or so salary difference.

Any CE majors here? Just wondering what the subsject is like. I do fine with math, i was always in the preAP classes and never had a problem as long as i had a decent teacher. Im just not really sure how focused CE is at software vs hardware and what kind of hardware they teach about?
