<p>Background Information:
I like computers (want to learn how to make mobile apps and advanced web pages), however I dont really like math at all and people say that finance, the other major im considering, and CS are both full of math and basically if I dont like math at all, I wont enjoy the job and probably never succeed. </p>
<p>It’s a bit strange that if you don’t like math you want to get in Finance. Do some research on both of those majors to make sure it’s something you want to get into. As far as the Math component to CS you don’t have to <em>like</em> math but it doesn’t hurt. As long as you’re capable of doing the work there isn’t much stopping you. </p>
<p>I will say if you want to get into mobile app development do understand that you will have to do algorithms and the like. Which is math and logic based. I know a couple of people that wanted to become developers and during an internship I had with them they realized it wasn’t for them. Most people can’t sit in front of a computer and code for 8-10 hours straight.</p>
<p>My suggestion would be to take the CS50x Harvard edX course and see if you like it. Unless you dip your toes into a major/career path you won’t know if you’ll like it or not.</p>
<p>Stars1 thanks for your reply, really helpful and that course of CS50x is something I will start to take this week and see if I like programming at all. I was considering a Finance major with minor in CS or just doble major? will my college “life” be affected by doing a doble major or a minor? </p>
<p>It depends on your interpretation of “college life”. Double majoring will be tough as the core courses between the two majors don’t quite overlap in order to make it less of a burden. That will possibly mean not finishing in 4 years. Although that last statement is purely speculative. You should speak to the admissions department at the university you plan on going to as well as your current guidance counselor. </p>
<p>When it comes to your future you can never have too much information in order to make the best decision you can for yourself. Compare the two programs and look at the course offerings for each. And at the end of it all ask yourself what do you want to do for 40-45 hours a week post degree. </p>
