Bill gates doesn't have a degree.
He is definitely not the rule. When I went to school, way back in the early 80's, I thought I wanted to be a programmer. They made big bucks, were smart, etc. During my second year, we were learning data structures, and I was NOT getting it. The teacher looked at us and said, "By now you should know whether you love programming, or loathe it." I got out. I discovered that I had a love for network and security. I was lucky to meet the head of the computer science department. He told me, "find what you love, or you won't like life." He was right.
