My advice it to start learning php/mySQL now, by the time you enter class you will have alot of experance with it and have a jump on everyone else. Otherwise stick with the boring stuff, I messed around when I first got in and have three withdraws (wasted money and time!) to show for it. Don't end up like me

I will also go with what others have said, php/mySQL is nice, but learning C++/MS-SQL/Oracle/etc etc will take you much further.

That's exactly what I'm doing. I just bought three books; one called Cascading Style Sheets: The Definitive Guide (because I'm not too familiar with it), Web Database Applications with PHP and MySQL, and Learning PHP5. :glasses: I've began reading them and so far everything makes sense to me. Lets hope everything else will..
