First off, being a CS major is a lot of coding and sitting in front of the computer screen, and that’s why I’m switching out. To be expected, though, I suppose.

There’s something at my school called “co-terming”, where you can get your Bachelor’s and MS in CS in 4 years. You have to plan out your courses well and be capable of it.

I think most CS majors in my school go work directly in industry after graduating.

If I could do it again, and if I wanted to be a CS major, I’d plan out my schedule more carefully, taking one math class and one CS class a quarter, and ultimately double majoring in Math and CS.

Okay, that’s what I got.
