Hi Hiatt! I read through your post and I think you need to decide what ‘more’ means to you. I’m referring to this sentence: “I realized there's more to programming than web development.”

There were a lot of strong reasons why I decided to get mine. Like loving academia and wanting to research something at a deeper level. As well as the possible employment prospects.

Then again, while doing my degree I discovered what it is that I’m interested in and want to work on, and perhaps wouldn’t’ve without that ‘space’.

I think you are right, Andrew. Thank you for the reply! I will think about my decision in that way.
