tl;dr Use your college life to build cool stuff, just because you can. You won't have that liberty once you come out > I might drop out next year. My guess is that you are serious about this. As a student myself, and having been thinking on similar lines over three of four years of my college, my opinion is - finish what you started. It is absolutely true that what you learn in college is outdated. But, what you get in college and don't get once you come out is the sandboxed environment. In college, you are free to explore your will, do whatever you want (even find co founders, if you are enterpreneural); there is no pressure. The pressure palpably increases once you come out. You can do that (do cool stuff for fun) even after college, but it's infinitely harder. > since I already know a lot of stuff/tech You might be the best in your college, but never let it get into your head (I'm not saying you are) PS: It became a long reply in the end. My apologies
