if you want to be surrounded by computers, EE is a better bet. regardless you can start in the engineering program, its the later classes that usually differentiate the degree
EE is heavily math based. I'm not the greatest at math. Its not my strong suit.
Any engineering degree you pursue will be heavily math-based. My dad made a joke about engineering programs...calling them "pre-business" because a lot of people couldn't cut it, and ultimately ended up just majoring in a much more accessible (read: easier) degree.EE is heavily math based.

All engineering is math-based. Math is the language in which science is communicated. There's really no way to do engineering without a pretty solid background in it.
Keep pushing on the math. It takes a while before calculus really sets in, but once it does, it becomes natural.

I don't think it has to become natural, some people just need to work hard. Still, a senior in engineering saying he's bad at maths has a different meaning from a high school guy saying he's bad at maths.It does? I'm a senior Aero Engineering major, and I still have trouble with those double integrals. Granted, they're like 10 variables long, but still.
I guess I'm not totally set on a major yet then. Those classes look awfully boring in my opinion.

If I were to do compsci, how much math would I need to know?
Probably about as much as EE. I think at my uni, CS students took the following...If I were to do compsci, how much math would I need to know?
EE would probably throw in Calc III and maybe another class.
my ee required 13 math classes
Any say with information systems engineering?
What is that? an IT degree or a systems engineering degree? In a university setting, that sounds like a focused computer science degree.
To me, engineering is a problem solving field. If you like figuring out puzzles, you'll do fine on your coursework (assuming you attend class and do your homework.) Choosing a specific major is fairly important for engineering. It's better to know which field you want to go into before you start because there are so many classes to take. I would browse the university website to see what the different clubs and student organizations do for fun, then figure out which one you would want to join, and choose the field that they're in.
