    I can attest to this. I went to university here in South Africa. In order to be admitted to computer science you had to have at least a75% average for mathematics . We started off in first year with over 100 students and by second year we were down to about 20. So that is an 80% drop out rate from people who had above average abilities in mathematics !

    Most make the mistake of choosing a BS instead of a BCSA. A Bachelor of Computer Science and Arts is still a valid computer science degree and will teach you most of the modern popular concepts of computer programming with only like 1-2 math courses. Just a tip, anytime you choose a BS (Bachelor of Science) - it's similiar to saying "I passionately love math with all my heart". So before you drop out, consider switching to a BCSA instead, most colleges offer an Arts alternative of CS...it's much easier when considering the math required.

    Most if not all Computer science students will go through Calculus and and some sort of Discrete Mathematics. These topics are really hard for first year students because most K-12 schools don't require you to have little to none background on Logic instead they come to college and go through the first course in coding thinking "coding is pretty easy" and comes 2nd semester they all are wanting to drop/switch majors because the workload is too intense.

  • @bigbao9843

    Because most student just thought the high paying salary but no interest in CS concept theory. And social media hype lead to everyone wanting to major CS, and end up dropping out.

      More like you need to be good at math to not fail at comp sci. There's a lot more to it than math, but Calculus and other high-level math courses are often overlooked by students entering the major.

    The university I went to banked on the dropout rate. They ran the freshmen through a few courses with high lab fees that were taught by TA's so they were low expense classes and pocketed the surplus for use in the higher level courses once the students had been whittled down to the ones that were serious. Not that the school wanted students to fail, but they weren't going to hold their hand all the way through the program either.

    Hmm .... the highest non-CS specific math I had to take was Linear Algebra. So, everything up to Calc 2 then Linear. Oh and I guess statistics. The only CS-specific math I took was Discrete Structures. So, it's really not much more math than any other science or engineering-type field.

    im about to graduate with my BA in economics with a minor in business and i will like to give my two cents on this. i enjoy the concepts of compci (i'm currently taking some compsci electives such as algorithm design and analysis) and i'm learning how to program using javascript, python, R and SQL, (for data analysis) but i think also part of the reason compsci has a high drop out rate is the perceived return of investment after getting the degree. the job market for software engineers is crazy right now as people are getting laid off. i feel like a great mix of compsci and a somewhat understanding of microeconomic theory (how firms and businesses work) can make a solid compsci degree absolutely worth it! my advice, don't just get the compsci degree because everyone else is doing it. figure out a solid plan with the degree, learn the costs and benefits of choosing the degree (pros vs cons) and then earn that high paying job that can land you a decent living space. i'm from california, and living conditions here are way expensive than it should be!

    It's amusing that the calc required for majors like Comp-Sci are actually very nearly nearly never used in comp-sci. Calc, for instance, can be useful in physics simulations but that's not comp-sci, that's physics or engineering. Maybe linear algebra might be used in parts of discrete math (often a weed-out course for comp-sci) like in hashing or more typically in crypto. Heck, the only computer topic where calc is really useful/necessary would be stuff like machine-learning. Generally, calc won't be used IN comp-sci, and rather nearly never post graduation in your career either.

    I dropped from a CS major to a CS minor. I had a lot of fun writing my own programs, had all A in my projects and homeworks, I also went to a T20 school in the US for CS. My problem started when I realized I was a really bad test taker, and couldn't pass Algo. If all my classes only graded me on my programming skills I would be an A+ student, but being a nervous test takers, and not being able to critically thinking out of my way fast enough really made me feel depressed. The fact that I would ace 50% of projects and then fail 50% of the tests to get a passing C in my classes destroyed my self confidence. It made my doubt myself, with the addition that I was risking losing my scholarship I just couldn't deal with the pressure anymore. I still haven't give up yet tho. Just because one way doesn't work for me doesn't mean the entire path is closed for me. Just need to do more leetcode, more algo practice and more projects.

    I think there are 3 main reasons: 1- People want to learn practical skills like programming, hacking, anything they will use in their job after graduating, but universities are TERRIBLE in teaching practical skills. People realize they are not learning anything useful and don't want to waste any more time. 2- You can learn all the material online for free. Actually education online is most likely much better than education at your university, unless you are going to MIT or Harvard. 3- There are so many unrelated classes in a CS degree, like physics, General Electives, very technical classes about computers or some Electronics Engineering classes, it's complete waste of time
