He studied computer science

You do realize that Universities don't have monopoly on information? I know it's an unfamiliar setting for high schoolers such as yourself, but you do realize that UNI's just offer a formal acknowledgement that you've learned things? You can more or less self study any degree.

It's just happens that uni's are often the best place to learn skills.

>classes MIT gives out for free
user, that's only for uninteresting lessons like Lisp.

I know people like you, they spent 2 years "studying" online before they realised that they learned a semesters worth of knowledge after 2 years.

If you are able to learn on your own so well, why don't you go to university, relax for a few years, make some friends and be at ease, knowing that you will have a top paying job once you get out?

>not just reinventing the field from scratch
brainlets, when will they learn?

>why don't you go to university
You will loose time at university because students are stupids and teachers are slow. You can learn faster at home if you are not a brainlet.

Wow, you must be a very noble person to do things that would be more difficult for you in the long run. I in no way think that you're a brainlet that cant get his shit together and invents excuses in his mind about being intelligent, like the popular science atheists that infest facebook with their memes about e = mc^2 without actually understand what it means.

I don't have anything against CS itself, but I had the displeasure of sharing student housing with a CS undergrad. He was a living stereotype. Horrible hygiene, fat, smelled like shit, left the apartment all messy and drank diet Mountain Dew.

>studying
What? For real? Are you retarded? ISHYGDDT

>4 years of food and housing
>networking opportunities up the ass
>electives give wiggle room to study other interesting fields
>on-campus events with free stuff
>lectures from world-class professors who know about art, history, philosophy, and sciences
>meet new people
>go to parties
>develop social skills
>get laid
>have vacations between semesters
>90% or better job placement odds after the program ends
>get a certificate that says "hey this guy knows how to write code"
You don't even have to go to class. College isn't about learning; it's about having experiences and making connections. The real brainlet move is missing such a great opportunity.

This is the only possible downside.
