What should I do afterschool in high school if I want to be a computer engineer after college?
I just started high school and I am trying to pick my afterschool activities. I think I want to be a computer engineer after I finish college so I would like to know what you did when you were in high school afterschool, if you are a computer engineer now. Did you do clubs like computer club or did you just do projects on your own? I really like reading about computers and taking them apart to see if I can figure out how they work, and I joined the computer club at school. The computer club is not really all that much fun right now though, so I think maybe I want to try something else. My school gives me a lot of homework which means that I only have an hour after school for fun. #engineering #extracurricular
