What high school classes should a kid take to get accepted into college for computer game design?

Q. My son is a sophomore in high school and wants to become a computer game designer. what kind of classes should he take while still in high school to make have the best chance at getting accepted into college for computer game design? Also, should he be doing anything extra-curricular?

A. The best course of action in high school is always to take the most challenging classes you can that your school offers. It's very important to have a base of core classes. Encourage him to take electives that he's interested in and relate to computer science and/or graphic design.
Also, extracurriculars are very important. Your son should try to develop well-rounded interests. Volunteer work is very important. As far as computer game designing goes, try to get him into some kind of computer club at his school or in your community. This will expose him to what he'll be studying in college.


How do you want your next computer game to be?
Q. Are you bored with shooters and RPGs? What kind of computer game would you want to play? If you play 3d shooters, what kind of challenge(s) would you expect in an "extremely" good game?
no suggestions but one?

A. It would be nice to see a mix of several types of games. Like a ARPGFPSMMO Diablo II style game meets FPS that you can also play online if you want.
