Post high school

My last semester too, I am going straight to a university, when I'm done getting a job and living the good life.

This. I decided to take Calc 2, Engineering Physics 1, Chem 1, Psych all in my first semester freshman year. I got through with a 3.53 but it was pretty hellish...

g'damn... And I thought pre-calc, chem 1, cis, and some GE class was overload -__-.. Smartass lol

Sounds like a lot of ppl here are doing some sort of engineering. How far into your engineering courses are you, lambo?

[AsharC]

My major is in engineering, too. I am looking to be a mechanical engineer.

I'm in my second semester right now, so not too far...

Seeing that you have the opportunity to go to college/university, i'd say do it while your brains are still "soft" :D


In my case I didnt think of any other scenario other than college right out of HS. I knew myself sufficiently to cancel a break or travelling out. I am working (read: taking a mini break) on my M.A thesis as I type this piece of advice.

College and browsing R3V aint easy!

Same, but mixed with electrical engineering..

Oh nice. just started my engineering courses last sem, and taking physics II, circuits, and statics this semester.. easily my favorite subjects, until heavy calculus takes over :/

If you do decide to go to college, don't get some degree that isn't gonna pay shit, then start whining about why you're not making enough money....

If you get a degree in women's studies, botany, 15th century literature, etc expect to be compensated appropriately for that market

Yeah, I'll be getting into thermodynamics and differential equations next semester...oh joy.

Jrobie79 raises a valid point!

I have a bachelor´s in International Comm. and about to graduate with a master´s in American Studies. Did both in Europe where there´s currently too little demand for communication and marketing students.

If you get a degree in women's studies,

There's a degree for that?

Seriously......who the fuck cares enough to get a degree in that?

[mtechnik]

I know quite a few Gender Studies students. They exist Slammin, they exist.

Yeah man...it's worse when you have to listen to them talk...

[Mlarsen]

I tried going to college. After about 2 semesters I said, fuck this. College isn't for everyone. I went into a trade and haven't looked back.

Lawd. I have trouble enough listening to women, much less about them.
