It's really giving me a lot stress as my parents saying me to join college but I don't want. I know I can learn all programming by self studying but they keep saying join college otherwise no one will give you job. I always think positive but sometimes I also start thinking like them (what if my life will be spoiled if I do not go to college)

There are so much things on internet. I can learn c++, objective c, java, AI, html, php all through internet (at least I think that I can learn whole by self studying and I can give 10 hour/day easily for studying) and I will keep practicing and become a good programmer in 2 years and then try to do some job for experience so no need to waste 4 years just for studying things which I can learn in 2 years and no need to waste money on college because they teach physics, chemistry all in first 2 years and I only want to study comp. Science.

But now again I am thinking negative that what will happen if I do not get degree and what will I do after learning programming if I don't get job?

Please suggest what should I do? Should I join college? or self study?

Can I achieve my dreams without a degree if I study hard and learn many things? I have full confidence that I can self teach myself better than they will teach in college.
I will open my app company and many more.

But maybe I am over confident because I don't know what happens in real world. How they treat a person without degree, etc.

Anyone of you had gone through this condition? What did you do?
