Answer 1

David, do not even think of dropping out except if you're a rich kid of course.

Computer science go far beyond programming alone. Most of us need to create special time to develop that skill cos you will most likely be taught how to write hello world in C or Java (for most uni around here).

Most of these skills you mentioned can be acquired without your CS degree but having a CS degree will give you x1000 advantage against someone who doesn't.

My advice is for you to find a time for yourself and learn these skills online simultaneously while aiming for your CS degree
