I love computer science so much that I refused to take classes in it as an undergrad.

  Well, just skip the intro classes. Just dive into the middle of the "major sequence" at the zone you feel is appropriate. I did this. The professor laughed at me when I asked to enroll without the prereq courses, then agreed as long as I didn't whine about anything, and finally recommended me for more advanced electives when I got an A. Really, if you're going for the "I hate college, OMG its so lame" route, you really need to rethink your stance.

    > Really, if you're going for the "I hate college, OMG its so lame" route, you really need to rethink your stance. Don't troll. The problem I identified in school is this: my internal motivation (passion, largely unexplained) would be replaced with external motivation (grades, competition). How many great artists became great because they had a strange compulsion to create and learn, versus being paid a commission?
