<p>I plan on transferring from a Community College to a University to major in Computer Science. But it is a bit intimidating haha. Because I am not a math genius but Im not completely bad at math, I mean... I get by. But I've always had an interest in computers at a very young age, I used to play around with DOS and programming languages.</p>
<p>So, a major in Computer Science- should I got for it? What is the job outlook?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>You don’t need to be a math genius.</p>
<p>The best programmer in my C programming class was terrible at math. I think he was taking the equivalent of Algebra II. However, I think they require up to Linear Algebra/Calculus 2. Honestly, those are quite easy classes if you put the time in. If you’re a logical person, you’ll do well. Don’t C your math classes. Good grades in community college will serve as the buffer courses for you when you take a hit in GPA when you get to the higher level classes. I was talking to an ECE student (did Electrical Engineering and a Computer Science degree) and he had a 3.75 by the end of his sophomore year and is just above a 3.0 right now. Stuff gets hard.</p>
<p>I know one computer science student who couldn’t pass Calculus 2. He finally did on his 5th try and he graduated with a computer science degree and last I heard he makes good money. He was actually a student at Cal State Northridge, but he was at my community college for the summer. </p>
<p>I’d say go for it.</p>
