[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]well, my kid's CS teacher said to him when my kid was evaluating engineering schools: * which one would you rather be at if your major doesn't work out for you? [/quote] A great piece of advice a high schooler should follow when choosing colleges. A large percentage of students will change their mind on what to study after getting into college. High schoolers just don't have the maturity to know for sure what they will be really interested in. I agree to the notion - don't consider your 4 year college like vocational training. You can quickly pick up the specific skills for the job quickly after you are on the job (especially CS type job). The money you spend on the 4 year college should buy you more than that. It should be about a broad learning, character building and social networking. With that solidly built, you can do whatever you choose to do in your life (which in itself may have many changes of heart again.)[/quote]
