ok. say I can do computer science but I love french literature. what jobs can I get in french literature? should I say screw computer science even though the job market in that field will explode in the next ten years?
the sane person would get the full degree in CS and minor in french lit
right, but we're talking about someone who LOVES french lit and finds computer science boring. hypothetical here.
yea i avoided this issue because I knew since high school I would do comp sci. I am not really sure what I would do if i loved something that had a crap job/career prospect vs something I don't like as much to get better paid. Personally I think goign through 4 years of comp sci and hating it/finding it boring would be really hard to do since you have to put so much time in it. I would probably end up double majoring honestly or get an undergrad in french lit (going with your example) and then do a comptuer science masters, since that lets you skip quite a few classes that undergrads have to take.
