Was part of a 5-year combined BS/MCS program that allowed me to take undergrad & grad courses my Senior year and have them double count. It was a bit tougher than I wanted my Senior year of college to be, but it paid off, since I got 1 more year of the "college experience" (at least how I define it, which may be different than popular perception) and came out with no extra debt and a great job out in the Seattle area.

Even though we did not have to declare a minor, I did have two secondary areas of study which enabled me to get into the profession (actuarial) I would work in for 23 years until I ERed in 2008 - math/statistics and computer science. It was the latter which enabled me to make my mark at the company.

This is a great thread! I have forgotten that I responded to it over 3 years ago. So I went back and read it from the beginning. I am amazed at the level of education of many of the contributors to this forum.
