Help with college in technology (CS, IT/IS,MIS,CE)

Hello fellow techies,

I am a junior in high school and I want to study computers in college. I would like to know which computer major should I study; computer engineering, computer science, information technology/ systems, or management information systems. I like programming ,but I don't want to just want to sit at a computer for 8 hours a day, I would rather a more interactive environment in maybe business. I have been told however, a computer science degree is more respected than an it/is degree. Also, I would like to know how to improve my college résumé. I kind of slacked through high school  and my gpa is only like a 3.5. I had a recent ephiany and realized that I have to get my stuff together I am going to join the coding club at my school and I'm taking robotics and computer electronics my senior year. What else could I do to acquire knowledge for a head start for college? Thanks for your help and time its okay if you can only answer a part of my many questions.

honestly nobody can tell you what to study, you have to research what are the jobs after each studies and see for yourself what interests you.
