Hi,
Your English is good. I can offer advice on a Computer Science degree
since I'm just finishing mine. First, continue your C programming
skills. Being proficient in C is still very important and will be a good
start for learning other languages. Second, make sure your math skills
are good. At my school (University of California, Santa Cruz) we are
required to take up through multi variable calculus, linear algebra and
differential equations, and probability theory. Math is especially
helpful if you want to pursue scientific computing.
Good luck
