CS and Math, but with an eye on software careers outside of web development (my pre-college internship and freelancing work was all in web dev type work). "Play to your strengths and aim high" mentality. If business were one of my strengths/interests, I might've taken the author's approach. But web stuff isn't interesting enough (to me!) to provide a basis for an engineering-oriented career.

Note: Being way ahead in CS allowed me to study a lot of other stuff beyond the introductory level. Econ, art and architecture, a bit of business and law, the natural sciences, etc.
