<p>I am comparatively good in computer and I can do basic things such as editing videos using Premiere or Final Cut and making 3D models through 3DsMax and Maya, BUT I really wish to study humanities and sociology related courses. Concerning my extra curriculums, I have a many of such related to computer, but the only thing that related to my interests in humanity would be my poor SAT 2 USH760 and the chance of attending A-Level Literature course (an honor course offered for a few students). </p>
<p>So long in description, I just wish to know, is it better to show college my interests in computer even though I might not choose it as my major? Is there any recommendation of activities during this summer that might help my app? Maybe things such as a social survey?</p>
<p>Hey, you’re just like me! I’m a big computer geek - in computer science, etc. but want to study humanities! I write for the Huffington Post about technology, so I sort of mixed the two in that respect. But my SAT scores for CR are low - a 640 and in a retake, 620. However, my writing score is a 770. </p>
<p>It’s best to show colleges anything that you are interested in - brag it all up, even if you may not be choosing computer science as a major. However, continue to work hard in humanities or start a blog or something.</p>
<p>YOUR ADVICE IS REALLY HELPFUL! Funny thing is, I got 640 in CR as well, and 740 in WR in January. I will take SAT latter in this year and hope for better.</p>
<p>In the U.S. all your EC’s are important and they don’t have to relate to your intended major.</p>
<p>Also, colleges like to brag about being life changers - how a kid can come in as a premed, take a meaningless class and change to a literature major. Showing that you are a humanities major with computery traits shows that you have variety - vital in today’s job market - and are open to adaptability.</p>
<p>Do both. Companies are looking for highly technical employees with good people skills.</p>
<p>My daughter just graduated from college: major in applied math, minors in physics and Japanese, and a certificate in Asian studies. The other night she announced that she really wishes that she had studied history because she loves history. Hhhhmmmm.</p>
<p>Study what you love. If you can fit in a CS minor, that will serve you well in lots of careers.</p>
<p>I think CS is a great balance to a humanities major. If you continue to take CS classes, even if you don’t minor, it can only help you get hired down the road. Or at very least help you at the graduate/research level since most research, at some point, involves analyzing data.</p>
<p>That’s awesome. Thank you guys!</p>
<p>When you are starting the job search, abzeiss, some years from now, you can have a computer skills section on your r</p>
