Dear Amber,
I hope you are doing well in the holiday season. You have asked me for my advice concerning whether you should study history or computer science at university, and I will try to make some useful suggestions.
You must keep in mind that university training is a preparation for your future career. Therefore, your first consideration should be to study a subject which will best equip you to earn a living. There is no doubt that the computer offers far wider job opportunities than history.
Besides, we are now in the age of the high-technology revolution. For the foreseeable future, not only will it be necessary for everyone to be computer-literate, it will also be necessary for them to be equipped with computer skills merely to earn a living. I am afraid only has a few careers offers in History.
I would recommend that you keep your reading of history in your spare time and prepare yourself for a worthwhile career in computers.
Warm wishes,
Chris Wong
