Pls Nairalanders, I need your help.

Last year I wrote the Jamb utme ( second time) and achieved a score of 277.I was hoping to gain admission to study computer engineering in the University of Lagos. I got the admission but was given statistics instead ( my aggregate was two points short of the cut off for CE). I was convinced to take it and start from there instead of waiting aimlessly at home for another year,so I have done my registration and all I am waiting for is ASUU to call off .

Now I feel the need to write another Jamb and try again, but, people are saying I shouldn't waste my time and all that. That I should just 'manage' the statistics I was given. About three to four people are saying that statistics is better than CE and it would give me opportunity to a wide variety of jobs,and CE would only limit my Job opportunities.The truth is that I do not have passion for statistics and I would like to take another jamb for either CE or EE.

Pls, I need to know what are the job prospects of statistics compared to CE in Nigeria and internationally at large. And if it can also be compared to Electrical engineering I would appreciate it. I really need your opinions .

Please let's make this get to front page in order to get more comments and opinions.

Bro. I suggest you go for what pleases you . You see , it's not about what you study that matters , what matters is the passion. You must be passionate about your career or else you'd end up like the millions of jobless graduates roaming the streets of Nigeria

On that basis, which course do you think 'covers more ground'?

Help. I need more opinions

Statistics is related to computer science and computer engineering. Also statistics has more job prospects.
