Right now I'm an engineering major, but I want to switch into physics and math double major. I was a clarinet performance major last year, but I didn't do so well.

TL = Man of Science.

Biology major which I absolutely hate with all the passion in the world was my least favorite class in high school and I suck at it. Would rather be a Chemistry major because I love it and can comprehend concepts much better. Chemistry requires less memorization of stupid shit which is opposite of biology which is basically all memorization. Third year in Biology can't turn back now, also filling out things for Premed, but with the grades I have now its not looking good.

Make sure you major in something you like and don't let other people influence you, be a stubborn asshole that way you can be happy.


wow that sucks..

I'm thinking of majoring in biology or CS; but I'm not really sure. I will finish my first quarter of college in a few days so I'm in no rush.

Don't worry about it too much, you can always change your major. lots of things in college arn't exactly like they were in high school, so keep an open mind. For example, from doing physics in high school, what would you expect physics in college to be. Probably lots of kinemataics (study of moving/colliding bodies). Physics is nothing like that in college- a lot more charges, quantum, etc.

It really depends. In some cases you are right, in some cases it is the opposite. Just as much as I took quantum mechanics, I took classical mechanics.

Electrical engineering because I've always enjoyed math and electronics/computers. Specifically want to do some VLSI design or something along those lines.

Only 2 of my friend actually do something related to what they majored in. Most people want to see that you have a Bachelor's in something more so to show that you were able to endure a 4 year institution.

I guess if you're going into medicine or computers, the prereq majors are necessary... but for everyone else... =/

I was English and Psych double major. And what do I do now? Overseas education consultant and part time Starcraft caster.

@susie what did you expect to do with those majors when you first started?

my major is cell biology and genetics : ) i'm in my second year now and i'm really worried about how much more biology i can handle. i've been forced to take other courses such as organic chemistry which i enjoy much much more than any of the biology courses i've been taking. also, science was never my number one, it was kind of a parent-force-into situation : (

I started as a computer science major. Then went into Elementary Education. Both of these things because I knew that I could get a job with them when I finished. Then I realized that I didn't want to do either of them and I was miserable.

Eventually graduated with 2 majors that I'm somewhat interested in. With English I figured I could do something in advertising or editing, perhaps go to grad school for creative writing or something. To be honest, by the time I chose my majors I just wanted to get the hell outta school. ^^

Feel the same exact way right now.

Although parents didn't force me into, might of indirectly, but was determined to do school myself without their help.

My parents suggested the program I'm in right now and I think it was a decent choice. I was going into mathematics in either case so

Xusneb, what is biochem then? Lol

But about sports management, I was thinking more into the marketting type, I'm taking AP statistics and I figured this would be a great help if I want to major in sporta management. But I'm thinking about taking anatomy, like sports pyschology and that kind of stuff.


Biochemistry (and science in general) was quite misunderstood by me. Like other naive people, I figured it was a merge of high school biology and chemistry and, hey, I liked those courses in high school! Actually, biochem is just looking at life on a molecular level eg. protein interactions and structures, signalling pathways, DNA expression. It's actually pretty interesting stuff, you just can't exactly see your experiments except through ... secondary experiments lol

The problem for me was that I didn't have a biochem course till 2nd year. First year was just general sciences and I had a single biochem course in the winter semester of 2nd year. So basically, we were in the dark for a while and by then, as kids are, we're too lazy/scared to switch programs. Even though we're young, we think "meh, I'm half done, I might as well finish". This is how a ton of people in my program in 4th year have no intentions of going into biochemistry research. Most people wants to go to med school, pharm school, law school, dentist school, uhhh mba? ... Yea, sry, just ranting about university. So the lesson is: research your degree and find out if you'll actually like it

EDIT: Wow, a lot of people in the life sciences. Actually, it's not too late to switch to chemistry if you're in 2nd year. I knew a friend who did that and by that time he had all the prereqs for med school. Don't be afraid to change if you really hate your program or happen to find your calling in life. You're young, a few extra years in school isn't gonna ruin you!

Environmental Science, with a concentration in Geoscience. I may end up with a double major also in Geology, or a minor in Physics or something else that I haven't decided yet. Why am i doing it? Because i like it (or at least i think i do :s)

I'm in pure math.
After highschool I wasn't really sure what I wanted to study -- something in science though. Math or physics were my main interests. But then physics got more boring and math got more awesome throughout my first year at university so I went into math. Also, my dad is a math prof at my school so I've grown up with it, which no doubt influenced me in some way.
Anyone else write the Putnam last Saturday?

Job prospects: None! Yay pure math...

Oh please no!
I think I'd go crazy teaching highschool or elementary school. That is a job I do not have the skills to do. I'll probably just end up in grad school for 5 years after my undergrad and then have no job, unless I get lucky.

In 2 weeks time I find out if I get accepted into the med school at my Uni. If I get in then I'm pretty sure I'll find a specialisation that I'm interested in eventually, just because there are so many options if you get into med school.
