Honestly, I would rather have a class [which I don't have the option anymore], but it all depends on the teacher so you aren't guaranteed anything..... which is when the programming books and other resources would come in handy. 
Did you take professional computer classes?

i sat through a c++ class in highschool--by sat through, i mean i had learned c++ on my own, and had the highest grade in the class and was bored and done with my work 10 minutes into the ...50 minute? class...every day....we had 3 weeks to do our final project, for instance...i fiddled with the same function for the first 2 weeks and 4 days, then did the entirety of the project in half an hour on the last day. and got a 97, because it was self-graded, and i decided i didnt want a 100. no one else got a 97. =P also, my teacher was fucking fascinated with the thing, even tho it was effortless to make...which scares me...
didnt i say that entire story in like 2 other threads....
i also had 2 years of qbasic, which was fucking IRRITATING and worthless. and worthless....maybe it was 1 year...no....2...i forgot, block scheduling means i had two years of computer programming in one year of courses....
