I am currently 16, and going to be a junior in high schol. I want to get a degree in computer science in college. I am currently learning the programming language C#, but what else could I read up on/study to get myself better prepared for college (I know that it's a bit early, but i would like to get a headstart)?

I'm 17 and going into CS also. You should take advantage of the AP Computer Science AB course if it is offered at your school- this upcoming school year is the last year the course will be offered before it is merged with the A course. Speaking as someone who got a 5 on the AP Computer Science AB exam and as a fellow programmer- it's an *awesome* class if you have a good teacher. You should also consider studying common algoithms and efficiencies of different proccesses used in programming- maybe learn a new language as well. I've learned C++ and Java (and HTML, but that doesn't really count, lol) and plan to learn Perl (supposedly it's easy, you can follow a lesson to learn in 21 days). The point is you want to start learning the general concepts of programming but also the specific execution in varied programming languages. More emphasis on the first part though. Good luck!!
