I just got admitted into the University of Port harcourt to study computer science/mathematics. I opted for this course firstly because heard a lot about software engineering in the states, how its is high paying and fun. I spent most of my spare time browsing reddit - (reddit.com/r/cscareerquestions) I started learning Java. But I quit because I had a talk with my dad and he said I was lazy (I wanted Mechanical engineering at first then switched). What mostly influenced my switch to cs was the competition in Mechanical engineering and that feeling that cs holds something too. I just found out in Nigeria cs graduates dont earn much. And there is this discrimination against non professional students(I don't know what to call them) in my school. Eg when I went for physical clearance engineering student were attended to first. My dads friends and my Pastor expected me to do an engineering course. I feel I settled for less and I want to correct that before its too late. I need advice
