you do not go to college to become a computer tech....you go to ITT tech or something.

A college that teaches English and basic spelling for at least four semesters.

I'm gonna make a shot in the dark here and say you are, at best, a high school freshman.

Start learning now. The best and brightest people to go through computer science schools are the ones that know their stuff before going in. n

The big question is what part of the design you want to be doing. Animation, modeling, programming, , bug testing, project management, concept art.... it's a bigger process than most people think.

Hmm, I'd start at a state college or tech school with your 2 years of generals including a serious dose of English lit, composition and tech writing courses. That is unless, of course, you want to incorporate the next "All your base are belong to us" into a video game project down the road.

Good article in USA Today about a school specializing in video game design : http://www.usatoday.com/money/media/2002-12-03-video_x.htm

Worry about moving to HS, your current studies, making friends, and having fun.

College can wait noob.

For computer tech positions any 2 year school and some certifications will take you where you want to go.

For game programming youll more than likely need a 4 year education in a real college for Computer Science.

Remember that, if you want to get a good school and good scholarships, your GPA starts becoming extremely important in 9th grade. ALWAYS DO YOUR HOMEWORK FIRST. ALWAYS.
