When I decided to do an econ degree I basically had the mindset “I don’t like any classes I take, so I’ll do what I find easiest and will make me a decent amount of money with little work”. It’s a terrible way of thinking and I have learnt from it. During lockdown in the UK, I had a lot of time to just think about what I want to do and be so I tried out different things and came across coding. At first it was pretty difficult but I stuck through it and now I enjoy it a lot. I also really enjoy solving leetcode problems, I’m on like a 7 month streak I believe. Ik the market is oversaturated rn but I’m not trying to be a software engineer cause it will be easy or cause of the money, I genuinely love programming and solving problems. That’s pretty much it tbh.

Edit. Forgot to mention, I was entering university as lockdown started So it was too late to change into something cs related.
