I'm a 17 year old who plans to major in Computer Science. Programming has been an interest of mine for the past 5 years, when I started teaching myself to design websites (so, I am very competent in the languages of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript). I've also taught myself three year's worth of Java, and have taken a formal US AP Computer Science class (which focuses on learning the basics of OOP and Java itself) and managed to get a perfect score on the exam.
