Yeah, you're right, I'm an it scmuck in cyber now but it doesn't mean I failed at computers, I don't want a more stressful job, I don't want to program for a living, I just enjoy learning computer science.

As for uni yeah now it's just extra years of high school, up to an MSc is mandatory if you want to succeed, and by succeed I mean have a job, and even then your chances are very slim.
