nice, another cs major. as a maths student i am kinda biased but i'd recommend taking a course on graph theory afterwards cuz graphs are used a lot in cs. then maybe take a intro to proofs course (if you havent already). i started out as just cs but switched to cs+math after taking a course that had proofs in it cuz i loved it so much. also look into courses on machine learning, especially ones that are for math students. also since you took linear algebra, a course in computer vision would be kinda interesting. lmk if you want recommendations more on the math side
What did you study in University and what do you specialize in now

Do you need a degree to work as a programmer,most companies in the west don’t focus on degrees as I hear
Everyone is good at something. To me, Biology was heavy on memory and light on Logic so I couldn't do it. Failed the lab twice. On the other Hand, same year, I was second best in the Chemistry class and the professor recommended that I pursue chemistry as a major. He sent his recommendation to our home address because he couldn't find me after the Finals in College. He was that eager to let me know. I went a different direction and did Electronics and Nano-technology. Had been fun ever since doing what I am good at.
probably not. a cs degree isn't a programming degree, but rather a degree on computer science. So, you will take many very theory heavy courses that you will never use in your work. but i think having the degree shows people you aren't a fraud ig?

That's how I feel right now, these courses and exams are kicking my dabada when I won't even need half what of I learned in the future.
what exams lol? automata theory? dreading and also kinda looking forward to that courseThat's how I feel right now, these courses and exams are kicking my dabada when I won't even need half what of I learned in the future.

Yeah automata theory and notations. The course is very interesting though, saaxib. I urge anybody to go into cs or learn some cyber security to keep up your sleeve for the future.
It helps a lot if you have a degree and it also depends on which sector you go into (some require you to have degrees). But from my experience, programmers without degrees tend to be very smart borderline geniuses.
Have you thought about the job prospects for a minority Econ Majors? Assuming you live in the US. Your white peers will have more lucrative jobs than you.
If you are spending four years at University and getting into debt, and you are capable in math and science, it is better for a minority person to do science/liberal majors in Engineering. Health related degrees are also good.
I typed your question into google search. The answer seems NO. But there are things you need to have or do to make good money as programmer without degree.
Dude we have big projects not this simple shit and 7 hours a day on your knees

you're better off going to community college and then transferring and getting a degree later
You can land econ jobs with any basic degree that's not econ specific.
