Where Should Comp Sci be?

I went to a school in Michigan for Comp Sci in college of engineering. The curriculum was in my opinion poorly organized. I had to take a lot of english, physics and math prereqs while taking intro programming classes. With my ADHD, i failed to apply myself to these classes adequately. I ended up programming personal projects when I should have been studying (so glad I'm medicated now). By the time I was taking courses that interested me, my GPA was garbage and I was burnt out.
From people I know at another Michigan school, which had Comp Sci in college of science, courses were immediately engaging and relevant. This anecdote has a sample size of n=2 so take it with a grain of salt. These may not be related variables at all.
