If you did undergrad over again

[☑︎#VoteDemocrat]

Would you stick with your major or go a different route?

I would throw English to the bushes for business of econ

Double major:

1. Math/CS

2. Chemistry or stuck with neuroscience

Idk technically @AquaCityBoy said biology isn't really STEM, I don't disagree either...

Biology is STEM...especially once you get into the higher level courses but having some research experience boosts your profile. Its not as hands on as chemistry is though. I can understand why some might feel that way.

Anything else and youre better off starting a business with the money. If you dont have the money up front and arent studying STEM you shouldnt even go to college.

Nothing I said applies to top 20 schools though.

Studied a STEM field at a top 20 school

Everyone can't be a business owner. Or a STEM major for that matter. Besides, the rarer the talent, the better the pay


To the OP: I'd have thrown political science with law school as a goal in the bushes sooner than I did and gone into computer science straight away instead.

Thing is, I know more successful people who started as STEM people who went into law...they're hella successful because of that increased familiarity with STEM content.

i would have done more networking, joined more organizations, been more involved on campus etc.

i would have hustled way harder.

I'm kind of in the same boat. I treated school like a chore. I got it out the way as quick as I could.

I hit high academic marks and had a great job upon graduating, but I never invested in networking/clubs/involvement.

I know cats who graduated from top tier schools and can't find a job(reed and Yale to make a few) . Rankings really don't matter because I know several people who went to state schools and are eating. As long as your program is accredited and the market is looking good. You're cooking.

I wouldn't change anything even though I'm in third year. Maybe wouldn't have procasinated on registering classes because I'm behind.

Assuming I was at a similar or better caliber institution, I would have thrown my finance/accounting degree into the bushes for a history + philosophy degree.

And have still had the biggest fall off in the coli history

They must have thought they made it just by being there. Those schools offer 10-20x what state schools offer in terms of resources.

One said that, Yale cat. But it's really depending on what you major in. No one cares if you're Ivy or not. It's about who you know and what you have a degree in

Would've done a different type of engineering. Would've socialized more(partying and campus involvement), Wouldve never gotten a 360( the amount of time wasted playing COD, halo, Fifa with dudes ). But woulda, shoulda, coulda at the end of the day

Being anti-islamic and somewhat nationalistic (in context) changes what exactly?

Here go another: look at meeeeeee I was a STEM major thread

I wouldn't change a thing.


Engineering major and I don't even work in engineering anymore. I work in media/arts.

School is not about getting a job, it's just an experience that teaches you how to learn.

Boy if you don't getttttt. School isn't about getting a job????

THIS x100. I also would get more box from the gyaldem
