[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]should a kid interested in pursuing CS in college not waste time taking courses in history, foreign language, English? [/quote] No he should not. But he will be forced to so that the college can milk his parents for another year of tuition and fees etc. Basically welfare for non-tech professors. [quote]The theory courses give foundation and understanding that expand the student’s knowledge base, critical thinking, and troubleshooting. Such skills are very important while working because the problems one tackles at work will be very different from the problems one solves in assignments and exams at college[/quote] The skills you need to solve problems at work, you will learn at work. Academic theory will remain largely useless to this.[/quote] Just curious. What is your formal education and what line of professional work are you in?[/quote]
