<p>Hey guys,
I'm a sophomore, and I've been doing lots of major searching. I started off as a music major but quickly realized it wasn't for me. Since then I've taken care of all my GE's. To make a long story short (after taking an intro to programming class) I feel like computer science would be a fitting major for me. I'm aware of all the work it entails, but my primary concern right now is whether or not I'd even be eligible. I haven't taken any of the prerequisites for the major and I'd start that next quarter (Winter). Does anyone know?</p>
<p>You’ll need to get through the 6 classes listed by the end of spring. It’s worth realizing that if you do switch, there’ll be absolutely no hope of graduating in 4 years. Computer Science is also not going to be exactly like the intro programming class you took.</p>
<p>Actually nevermind it’s open only to engineers
It says I can take pic10a/10b in place of a science class. Does this mean I have to take both or either/or?</p>
<p>does intro to programming take up a lot of time? i’m also considering switching my major to CS but I don’t know if i will like it since i’ve never taken any programming class b4</p>
<p>It will take up a lot of time if you aren’t good at programming. If you’re pretty decent at it, it shouldn’t take up too much time (projects will be < 10 hours each).</p>
<p>You generally have a project every 1-2 weeks, so it isn’t that big of a deal. Once you get into upper divs, however, that’s where the real time consumption begins :D</p>
