I started school today and It's all well enough and most the classes are easy but I'm a little worried about the calculus class I'm in. I took college algebra 10 years ago in high school and I'm supposed to remember all that shit. It's easy enough to look up but how much harder is going to get? Should I just give up and get a pussy ass IT degree or go balls deep and be an engineer?
I'm mostly talking to aldra, sophie and lanny. Did any of you go to school for computer engineering?

Depends on what you're interested in really. Do you really want to be an engineer?
What would you be interested in doing IT-wise, specifically? For programming or software development the math you would need would be on-par with that of an engineer, just less specialised. If you want to go into something like cryptography it could be even more in-depth.
Those are two very general 'directions' - if you can tell us what you're thinking of, or even just generally what sort of things interest you then we could maybe help more.
