Well now I'm curious. What are you assuming that I'd assume?

FWIW, I assume little. I have a degree and know the effort that went into it, and am well versed in how courses are distributed in and out of your major over 4 years of study. I'm not engaging in this discussion to say one is better than the other... I'm saying they are different. Different schools, for different purposes, serving different people.

Fair enough. I'd guess on average 500-800 hours spent actually studying and writing code in CS-related topics & math.
