A long time ago, in a galax...rather when I first started college, I was seriously considering a computer major but that slowly and surely change to a Math major with a minor in Physics. I have my Assc of Applied Sciences, concentration in Mathematics, and I'm taking a year off to get my life in order before heading off to a 4yr college to get my Bachelor's and Master's Degrees, then hopefully move on to my PhD dissertation. I'm still not sure what field I'd like to go into but I just finished my first year of calculus so there's plenty more out there. I have been reading some interesting books though, my most recent reads are "The Golden Ratio", "An Imaginary Tale: The Story of the √-1" and "Incompleteness: The Proof and Paradox of Kurt Gödel" and I'm currently working on "The Equation That Couldn't Be Solved"...yeah I'm sick

. About the only "work" I've done in that field though is some math tutoring at the college, talk about frustrating!

Frustrating but not surprising, many college grads do NOT work in their field. Thats one reason I prefer a trade school over college.
