So I was going to graduate from community college this spring with a Computer Gaming and Simulation associate's degree...
but when I applied for graduation, it turns out I haven't met most of the requirements for that degree.
The courses that the counselors have advised me to take are actually part of the Computer Science track.
(gaming and simulation is video game design, which is not really what I wanted to learn in the first place)
So they're at least competent enough to advise me with an actual major, but no one realized that there are still 8 credit hours of computer science electives I still need to take. I could have handled those requirements earlier, but instead I've just been filling up my spare time with higher level math, useless for a computer science degree.
But this way- I have something to do over this summer before I transfer to university, by completing those new requirements. I get my associate's degree in computer science, and those math courses I've taken aren't going to be useless after all, because that means I don't have to take them at university, which is more expensive!
I even have a job- three hours a week and barely above minimum wage, but at least it's something~
everything is working out it's so great~
