With the influx of interest in the edTech site I’ve been building, I’ve been getting a question that I don’t think I had previously taken the time to really think through, “Is computer science hard?”. That said, my guess is that a standard computer science education is easier than most of my readers think.

In a similar fashion, some of the biggest factors when determining an answer to the question, “Is computer science hard to learn” would be: The more of those questions you can answer “yes” to, the easier it will be to learn computer science.

The important question that only you can answer is “do you want to learn computer science?”.

Assuming your goal is to learn computer science, and not just basic software development, the more math you’ve taken the better off you’ll be.
