I choose electrical engineering for some weird reason - I don't think it occurred to me that software engineering was a way of making a living even if I had been a hobby programmer since I was 12. Luckily the introductory course was based on SICP - and it really realigned my BASIC- and C- damaged brain. It turned out to be the only course that I enjoyed so I eventually switched to a more computer systems and sciences oriented education. It was a good introductory course for me, and perhaps most others. Perhaps not good for the most daft though... I guess you also need some assembler-skills but it's hard in a totally different dimension somehow.
