Computer Sciences.. Help Choosing My Major?
I'm currently deciding on a major to pursue in college...Narrowed it down to computer sciences (not that that's at ALL a narrow field). I'm what you would call a computer noob, but I'm very interested and I make good grades in the AICE program (accelerated learning) across the board; So I like to think I have the capacity to learn. I just don't know where to start with the vast knowledge computers require. I'm leaning towards the 'software track' but I wonder if that's a wise move? I want to be someone who, in say 10 or so years, can test the latest OS beta from Microsoft and be able to write tutorials and understand individual components of the Windows registry. Someone who can actually play a role in helping shape the computer community for the positive. Most importantly though, I want something that would lead to a stable job with substantial income. I know I'm asking a lot, and some of you may laugh at me, but every other question I've ever asked here was answered thoroughly so I figured I'd ask this one here as well...
