<p>musicamusica: More along the lines of theory/composition, or specializing in recording arts and engineering if the school offers it. I’m hoping to work in the music industry and perform for fun as an adult, unless I can somehow turn it into a career. It’s hard to gauge my own talent but I’m not exactly a prodigy so a performance degree seems less useful for me. Ultimately though, the academics of the school are more important to me than the strength of the music program, although it’s also a major consideration.</p>
