Is Computer Science right for me?Answered
I am a current junior, graduating 2023. I have a 3.8 GPA and I am guessing I will get a pretty decent score on the SAT next thursday (I got 1240 on my PSATs). I am really interested in taking computer science as my major in college, but I am not sure if it's right for me. I like math, but I am not a genius in it by far. The little coding I have done I have enjoyed immensely, but I don't do much of it. If I practice hard over the summer to try to catch up would I be able to get into a good college as a computer science major?

Absolutely! As they say, practice makes perfect-- so keep going for it! There are so many opportunities in the Computer science field, and even if you go to college and are not too excited about it-- the skills from coding translate into so many fields and are invaluable in the eyes of employers!
