What to major in

Hey Jow Forums I’m in college and want to see what you guys think is the best major. I’m thinking accounting but have reservations that accounting is going to suck.

Should I do MIS instead? Or fuck it and just do pre med?

Edfag here. Pick your job on leaving college first. Check local job listings and the shit they're asking for.

Pure accounting probably isn't as in demand as Biz/Finance in most markets, but WHERE you are, and where you want to live, this may make a difference.

If you do accounting do go for law afterwards and go into tax law.

If you're at all capable in math do engineering or quant finance.

If you are very good a math become a math major.

From what I see accounting does as much as Finance if not more.

How could a general biz degree be better than accounting? Also from what I hear Accounting is a way better degree than Finance in most cases.

History, you get to become a lawyer easy, or a professor that drops su tle redpills over time.

I am decent at math. Was thinking about majoring in it. What can I do with it? I am already a sophomore.

Also I have no desire to do that quant shit.

What if you don’t want to be a teacher or if you don’t get into a good law school?

for most entry level jobs accounting and finance are pretty much interchangeable

At the entry level accounting seems to do more than finance from my research

I agree with the other post telling you to look at actual job listings. Explore as much as you can, even while you're in a particular program.

I would also advise you to get acquainted with Excel or some other spreadsheet software and plan out your coursework for the next 4 years in detail. Make sure to look at all the courses your school offers in the various departments you find interesting. Look at the upper level courses and see what seems interesting to you.

If I could go back in time, I would have chosen math and one or two other majors from the following list:

>computer science
>physics
>philosophy
>some type of engineering

Same here! I am about decent at mathematics and I was thinking about majoring I'm that to become a mathematics teacher. Decent pay with not so stressful work. Plus the longest paid leave in summer.

Math majors tend to go in one of a few routes:

>software
>teaching
>actuarial science
>something in the finance industry

If you major in math, I would recommend a double major for sure (unless you're competitive in math and are planning to go to grad school for math). Many of the other math majors I know are CS or physics majors as well.

Does anyone here know approx how much demand there's for electrical engineering? I'm planning to go that way, but i won't mind changing towards mechanical engineering or material engineering.

lol majoring in math would tank my GPA but I will look into it. I have so many interests I have no clue which to go with, which is why I’m picking accounting.

Don’t do ME. No demand anymore.

Thx for the heads up m8. I'm not familiar with the job market so should i stick with electrical or go material?

Thinking about becoming a software developer with a strong math background. Should I take the CS route and supplement my courses with upper division math courses or should I just major in math and learn how to program on my own.

I don’t know about material engineering so maybe electrical...

If u have diversity u can morph a music degree into head of cyber security!

The more important point was to think about why you're picking what you're picking in the general range of biz, which you've clearly done.

Accounting tends to be a bit more process oriented. General accounting usually isn't seen as something a company pushes for a competitive advantage on, so the maximum upside tends to be lower.

But again, local job conditions actually vary quite a bit. I'd try an early internship if possible to see what the functional environment is like.;

LOL. This user is an idiot. History has ZERO competitive advantage over the other liberal arts in the job market.

Do not major in math unless you're going for teaching or a PHD. All interesting math jobs need a strong programming background or biz.

Depends on the hiring processes of the companies around you. Having a strong code portfolio is a must especially for the latter path.

Check local job listings. EE tends to beat ME, but who does either one in Tunisia?

And you SAW what happened to equifax.

Don't go into Computer Science.
We're on strike.

Imagine asking Jow Forums (instead of the guy in the mirror) what you should be doing with your next 50-60 years on this godforsaken Earth, and then hovering over some bullshit STEM degrees about some boring shit nobody cares about including you, spend 10 years procrastinating that degree, get 300k in debt just so you can make barely 10% more than a burger flipper, while streaming Fortnite or making furry porn will easily net you over half a million dollars pa, stress-free and no effort or actual work required.

You are a wise one. Very Aaron Carley -esqe. If you work in public accounting you can potentially go far. What majors do you recommend. Accounting? MIS? I would think about some kind of engineering but comp sci is the best there.

With my scholarships my bachelors will be almost free. I can do that stuff you are talking about any time no matter what degree. So why not get a degree with great job security just Incase those businesses dry up.

What's the difference between IT and programming? Like, what's the difference in daily tasks?

Programming and software development is writing the code from the ground up. IT or MIS would be using the systems that the code makes up. The former is in more demand, but the ladder is easier to get into.

Dual major in Finance and Computer Science.
Do a 5th year masters program.
Become a quant, get rich. Or be an accountant, that will make you good money too.

There's literally no other option.

This is the world we've inherited. Unless you have rich parents, Capitalism rapes you in the ass

Which is just a thinly veiled way to say that you don't really know what the fuck you want to do with your miserable life.

Thank you. Quants don’t really get that rich. Adding comp sci to my degree would already make the bachelors 5 years.

...

Well, I don’t know EXACLTY what to do. I have dreamed of being a lawyer, my mom tells me to be a doctor or engineer. I have plenty of interests and want to explore, but that takes time and money. I don’t want to spend it, but I may have to.

I'm actually thinking about going into a foreign market. I can speak arabic/french/english and I'm working on my german. I'm gonna look into jobs here first, but I'd rather work in the anglosphere, so any tips on the job market in America would be greatly appreciated.

IT work is largely setting up/maintaining networks and workstations (the actual hardware) for clients. IT helpdesk is answering a phone/e-mail and helping your clients solve their computer problems, remotely or on-site if you need to physically do something with hardware.

Programming is more sitting in front of a PC actually solving your own problems.

The #1 thing is hard work and connections and #2 is luck. If you are a programmer / software development you will be best off.

>I let my parents influence my life decisions
I KNEW IT, I knew you were all just LARPING manchildren.
God, that's so pathetic.

>nursing
This old lie, eh?

I said that’s what my mom wanted me to do I never said I was going to.

>Le engineering maymay

Do it, college is fun. Quants make decent money I think. I dunno how rich you're trying to get.

Being a quant means moving to Jew York tho...

It pretty much is a meme

You obviously give it some weight and let it influence you, since you had to mention it without anyone specifically requesting for it.
That's more than enough.

Taking a little bit of time to explore something that will have a massive impact on the next 50 years of your life is a cheap investment. And as crazy as asking Jow Forums is, there are a BUNCH of NPC fuckers out there who are doing less, just following the shortest path from their grades, or their parents instructions.

I'm deliberately making no major recommendations. I don't have enough information to tell you what to do, and it's not something that can be covered in a thread on fucking Jow Forums of all places.

Are you committed to entering the job market at BS? Or do you intend to go farther? Do you need stability? You ok with short term contract shit? You ok with out competing your peers? Some work environments are filled with assholes. Some are filled with ultra progressive easily triggered ho's. Some are filled with ultra competitive mega chads.

You can do math, which gives you a certain amount of flexibility.

Unless your mother understands the local job market or can get you hired, you should ignore her. You've got plenty of viable options, in in demand fields that pay well enough to raise a family.

Getting INTO the job market in America, without weird illegal alien limbo shit is hard. H1B and then getting a roastie to marry you. Finding an international company that has a branch in Tunisia and transfering to the US. Playing Greencard Lottery. International student to Tenure track, if you've got enough cash. Starting a small biz, if you've got the bucks.

> math become a math major.
> Was thinking about majoring in it
> I would have chosen math
>physics
> lol majoring in math

Major in math ONLY if one of three things apply:
1)You take a lot of statistics or probability
2)You plan on going into academia
3)You take a lot of applied math(i.e. numerical analysis)

Pure math(e.g. analysis/abstrac algebra) is hot garbage for employability.

t. dual math/physics major going into last year

>Unless your mother understands the local job market or can get you hired, you should ignore her. You've got plenty of viable options, in in demand fields that pay well enough to raise a family.

What fields do you recommend?

This.

What majors / careers do you recommend?

computer engineering for high IQ college bound autists

trade school for most

Thank you. What do you think about accounting, finance, and (different topic) medicine/ pre health?

or work in sales, like 9999/10000 history majors

I can work hard and I might be lucky. But the real question is can i use my African status to get a job at a company that wants diversity? I'm white but i can talk some HR into believing that them evil Frenchies genocided my people and that Germans fought a war on my land.
I see. Finding a job here would be difficult, same with finding one through the internet, but getting a roastie to marry me doesn't seem so hard. might try this if it all doesn't work out. Also what do you think of this?:

You don’t even need a degree for that. Psychology would probably be best if you want a degree.

>accounting/finance
I don't know much, but if you're interested in those, then I'd recommend considering majoring in math (heavy on statistical analysis).

>medicine
There's always demand for doctors, so it's a safe bet. Though my cousin who's a pediatrician in NYC says the pay isn't as great as everyone thinks it is.

I'm doing a BA in Music

How fucked am I?

Bottom line is still bottom line. Your diversity may be cool but if you don’t bring anything to the table then that’s that.

In terms of working for someone else? Very. Can you start a business? Yes

Attached: EABF3403-A8EA-4EF8-9C78-B7875913D1CC.jpg (1242x2208, 247K)

If you stop there, very fucked.

One of my friends got a BA in Music then a MS in Neurobiology, and is now very well employed. He is a genius though, your mileage may vary.

>In terms of working for someone else? Very.

>Sound designers aren't a thing
A BA in Music doesn't necessarily mean you're studying in order to play a guitar all day long.

It's just a "if i fuck up everything" backup plan. My main cards will always be my degrees.

Civil engineer retard

Music isn't in common core so districts are dropping it, so even landing a K-12 teaching gig is probably going to be a struggle.

Your financial prospects are overall below black studies majors and above art majors. Start your job search now. Be flexible and prepared to pivot. If you've got a plan for a masters or post bacculate like med, or law, you should be prepared to launch it.

You can use that to get attention, but HR freaks out at the idea of africans that aren't brown. Also if you're playing this, you aren't white. You are African, and let no one tell you otherwise.

And there you're competing with trade tech people, sound people, acoustic engineers.

From what I hear civil is okay

I have a friend that did civil. He spent a lot of time traveling for his job, and spending time on construction sites. But he recently meme'd some sort of VR application of civil and is making good money, and no longer on the road all the time.

Major in English and Music like me user. It is unironically the most based combination. Don't listen to all these jizz-brained usury-fucked faggots who think the best they can do in life is upturn their AIDS ridden asses to their kike masters and beg for a bourgeois creampie to the face. Stem, chemistry, engineering, mathematics, law; so many ways of idolizing cuck faggotry in wagecuck faggot world. College is not meant to prepare you for industrial labor or middle management mediocrity. Majoring in English and Music is a giant fuck you to the kike and to the massively gay world of kikery. Even philosophy is bourgeois. Utility is the battlecry of sedentary bitches. Tell me I am wrong.

If you are going to teach you do not need to actually study it. You just need a general bachelor's degree to get your teacher's certificate in high school or below. You just need general master's degree to teach in most university undergrad positions. My Dad teaches community college courses outside his specific area of study all the time.

Getting a Bs in Real Estate, I feel fucked but not completely. More like just the tip.

Any idiot can do real estate. Hell, even I almost have the license.

>Start life with a mountain of death and no career prospects outside of retail or food service, so you can say fuck you to The Man, the same Man you wasted four years of your life and thousands of dollars to make rich
Your post is pure cope. If you're just going to do some liberal arts bullshit, don't even go to college. You can read books and teach yourself an instrument on your own time.

To break into the niche world of commercial real estate is where the degree comes in.

You could also major in a more useful degree like finance and minor in RE

I can still become a high school teacher if I want though and they make good money. I was thinking about getting my cert in Math. Wouldn't take that long or cost much money. Sometimes I think about going back and getting my Masters in Economics or Philosophy. But it's obviously not worth it in the kike's world. Here I am at 26 and still working with niggers and spics in manual labor and other jobs I might as well not have gone to college for. I still think the financial motive is vulgar though. I'm really not nearly as bitter as I should be about it. I don't really care about money as long as I have my books and my piano. It's not what university is supposed to be about. It's about truth. Self-realization. The only thing I am bitter about is that the only truth I have found has been outside of formal education and that the only thing I learned in college, other than music theory, was a bunch of bullshit.

Thanks but graduating university with the Bs in real estate in a semester and just want to be done and work for a while with whatever job I can get with it.

You are very true. But from that perspective college is only for the rich. For everyone else a useful major is the only option.

If we lived in a White country and Jews weren't constantly devaluing the purchasing power of our money, I would be content working manual labor jobs while pursuing my own private studies in the meantime. I like manual labor. The point of contention I find is working by and under shitskins, and most insultingly under the guidance of women in middle management. This has been the reason for me quitting 3 of the last 4 jobs I have had. I loathe working under women. It absolutely drives me insane with rage to take orders from a girl.

If you’re that close then your job should already be lined up. Commercial real estate is something you can get into only with connections or luck usually.

Most jobs have women in middle management. That’s one thing that made my last job hell. At my current job all the big dogs are male and very understanding.

Epicurus said that the man who desires is poor and the man who desires not is rich.

Yes, soul-wise. Not bank account wise. Why not both?

You are right. I started doing manual labor because I wanted to get away from it, and a month into the job all the middle management all the sudden became girls. It's worse everywhere else though. Jow Forumsfags keep telling me it's because I don't have a real job which is why I am ruled over by women and fags and token niggers. I'd like to see what a real job is then. When I was 20 I worked in a pizza joint that was 100% male. Best summer I ever had as far as job contentment was concerned.

I think he meant it more in the sense of consuming what you produce. Maintaining equilibrium between input and output. It is spiritual and economic.

I’m a Political Science major with a concentration in International relations and a minor in economics.

I went for operations management... and no Industrial engineering and operations management are no good for white men.

retard

If you don't have a bulletproof plan to land a job right away, then drop out right now.

If you don't have a passion, then your only goal should be to do the one that will ensure a job

Daily reminder - STEM education is a myth. You need at least a non-STEM minor is a subject like business or economics to get a decent job.

Accounting seems miserable. And easily automated. Can't you do most of it with an excel shortcut?

The actual degree does not mean nearly as much to an employer as the experience.

Figure out EXACTLY the job you want now and then take your time in college getting the most experience you can such as internships. Get to know your professors so you have references. This stuff probably matters even more than the "type" of degree. A degree is a minimum requirement and does not make a person employable.

whatever degree you get, you will not be doing that stuff at your job, most likely

Also try to get into a career that is more guaranteed to exist even during hard economic times, like you know how dentists say, there will always be people who need a dentist

No you

What is a good stable job that isn’t automate able? White collar speaking. Accounting won’t be automated that easily.

But who knows
