Prepare for a lot of math, though.
lol yep, prepare for a lot of math. its kind of odd, i hate math but love computer science, which is one of my majors. im doing a math minor along with it ( not because i like it at all, as mentioned above) but because there are probably 2-3 courses which arnt already cross listed with my majors.

having said that, a lot of the math youd have to do for computer science is pretty interesting. algorithms, computation (theory/scientific), discrete math etc.
