Ive been trashing my head over what I should go to school for since culinary and nursing didn't work out too well for me and I'm considering doing something in computers since ive had a fascination with learning how computer viruses work and how they are created and basically computer security in general.
so uh... what courses should I take and any tips on schools and other general things i should know about before becoming a computer major? |

Honestly, if you like security I would go into Information Technology. Security is your job as a network admin.
