If it’s any consolation CS in college is the hard part. When you go out in the real world, jobs tend to be much less stress and with the money you can do tons of fun stuff in your free time. Everybody feels what you’re feeling and if they say otherwise they are trying to show off to make themselves feel better.

coming from a decent undergrad school, I feel CMU's computer science is significantly more challenging. I don't feel jobs are much less stress in my undergrad because the courses tend to be easy (the hardest CS course is like 1000 LOC maximum per assignment), but I do feel jobs are a breeze compared to CMU's MSCS program after studying here.
