I assume there's a few engineering students on here, so I'm actuaIly curious. Do you guys actually think your degree is difficuIt or are you at the stage where you realise anyone could do it?
It is difficult. Many people are weeded out during data structure/algorithm classes. Definitely not for everyone.

medical field confirmed for brainlettes

i remember this pasta but it's been a while since anyone posted it so you're going to get those summerfriends
Luis Robinson
I'm in grad school for math, both engicucks and medfags are fucking idiots. It's like listening to a moron fight with an imbecile. However of the two, at least engineers know calculus and the trapezoidal rule, and don't write papers exclaiming it's a new thing while naming it the fucking Tai method lol
I'm an engineer and the average IQ is 50. It's true because I said I'm an engineer :P
Hunter Stewart
this is retarded im about to start an engineering course and i get consistently As or A* in maths chemistry and physics.
Daniel Jones
haha same I'm an engineer and I make $5 million a year it's true because I said so
Jaxson King
>med >thinks he's smart in any capacity Med is literally, LITERALLY a joke. A down's syndrome lobotomized monkey can ace med. EE is infinitely harder than med and it's crazy easy.
Zachary Kelly
Honestly programming nowadays ain't shit to what my predecessors were conceptualizing and writing. I am humbled they paved the way to my easy fortune.
Did an engineering bachelor's and went to med school. The top 1% is probably smarter in engineering. Otherwise medicine as a whole is smarter because they get compensated better and attract higher quality students.
>literally in fucking high school >I GET A GRADES IN MATHS AND PHYSICS
Luke Peterson
im saying that even at a lower tier university such as southampton the entry requirements are still above average for an engineering course, so that pic he posted was a complete lie
Dylan Sanders
did you not even read the post i replied to?

Going to college makes you a faggot. Getting a job.makes you a cuck.

dude no shit it was a lie lmao. the fact you got so worked up over it kinda proved his point

Why can't you guys do both?
Ryder Garcia
Went to school for electrical technologist that now works in the medical field, so trust me when I say >wanting to work the hours of an electrical engineer or a doctor Truly the wagiest of slaves.
Charles Ramirez
at least im doing something with my life instead of arguing over other peoples careers

People who are in college dont belong on this board, you have to be a loser and a failure at life, please leave immediately.
Brody Powell
i do know this, i didnt accept that offer. but they still seek out the people who do well in physics. i dont even need to know anything about biology to get into a medical course, you just need good grades.
more than you at least.
Levi Hall
Just so you know, an American made that meme about engineering. Engineering has a massive drop out rate in America and it's much easier to get into than in the UK so it's not even relevant to you. Stop getting riled up over nothing you baby.
Easton Edwards
>women would rather die than date an engineer I guess hanging around all those doctors as a health admin gave her high hopes, huh?
yeah i will because im a female so ill get first dibs because of their quotas. do you think if i lied and said i was a lesbian they would let me in even faster?
Josiah Kelly
Been to med school and doing electrical engineering now. Electrical engineering is more difficult. Again, this depends where your strengths really lie but it's a lot easier to learn human anatomy than it is to wire up a ship's electrical systems.
Jayden Kelly
>teheheh I'm a gril Ahhh makes sense, girls usually go for the easier option.
easier option is biology desu. the plebian science.
Jace Morgan
I've done electrical engineering and now I'm in med school. I didn't study once and got 100% in every EE exam but med schoolw as tough.
It's true because I said so XD
Gavin Peterson
I had a lot of friends that did engineering during college, and half of the engineering students are retarded foreign students who can't even string an english sentence together and think wikipedia and the ability to copy and paste is all you need for assignments.
Luke Reed
guess it doesnt matter if the field is saturated when that is the competition
Ryder Perez
They'll work for cheaper than you will pal. I sure hope you're born into an engineering family, thats about the only thing that could save you at this point.
Ayden Bell
Do you expect us to believe you completed med school and then decided to become an engineer? Or did you just drop out?
Noah Murphy
medicine doesn't require intelligence it solely requires a good memory
>hear symptoms >think of what it could possibly be >tell patient
that's literally it lmao. even nowadays doctors dont give a fuck and tell people to just google things
Luke Long
It's a lot of path memorization. I do think surgeons deserve a lot of respect, though.
Camden Perry
One significant problem with surgeons is they don't get enough practice so even the top tier ones are dogshit if your condition isn't a clear-cut run-of-the-mill issue and are more likely to cripple you for no reason than actually help you.
David Brown
h-hey user you should post your discord so we can hang out when we both make it into soton :3
i declined southampton and accepted bath and leeds as insurance. never even visited southampton because it was just a filler option
Jackson Russell
Surgeons are literally the bottom tier of medicine. They rely on everyone else to do anything medically related for them. They're just well paid butchers with shittier hours.
Owen Wright
Because what good is a phd? Researchers are fags.
Gabriel Hill
>r9k >NEETs and wagies (the ones at the bottom barrel)
Ahahaha, these threads are unironically funny....not
Adrian Clark
>Because what good is a phd? Researchers are fags. Majority of senior doctors end up doing PhDs or at least clinical research on top of their work as clinicians.
I've been helping out with a few projects in the ICU to boost my chances of getting a surgical fellowship once I've finished my internship. The ICU alone has 19 running atm.
Oliver Lopez
yeah except path memorization isn't even required anymore. when's the last time you visited a doctor? literally all they do is type in your age, sex, general lifestyle and the symptoms you tell them and a program algorithimcally determines what is likely happening
it's literally braindead tier. there's no creativity, no expansion. just "HURRRRRR A+B+C = U MIGHT HAV DIZZ DIZZORDURRRR"
Owen Turner
PhDs actually cure diseases and mend broken bones. They build cars and improve them. MDs are basically mechanics except they never look inside the car.
Dylan Butler
I'm not a professional in any regard, but I'll say engineers are more intelligent, every time I've been to the hospital they never have any real answers, one dude told me I had arthritis, this is supposedly a highly educated man right? I was 23 and fucked up my arm weightlifting, and his genius professional opinion was arthritis, I have dozen examples like this.
I got a vaccination, and during the vaccination when he pressed the needle into my arm, I started speaking gibberish for some reason, but I didn't notice until I saw concerned reactions.
He literally had no explanation for why that happened.
I'm just saying the technologies we utilize and the advances society has came across amazes me more than a doctor saving a life. More people know scientists and engineers names than they do of doctors.
Dominic Kelly
>Majority of senior doctors end up doing PhDs I cant even explain to you how wrong that is. A few physicians might conduct clinical research, but they in no way need a phd for that. Unless you're in some bumfuck country.
The actual PhDs who cure diseases are biochemists at pharm companies. The half clinician/half ""researcher"" isnt curing shit.
Parker Edwards
>and mend broken bones Fucking how?
Julian Robinson
You're literally stringing random facts together hoping they're somehow disproving the statements you're replying to when they're completely unrelated.
The vast majority of senior doctors do not have/get a phd you fucking tard.
The advancements in medical science arent made by fucking physicians who do research on the side. They come from biochem phds at biotech/pharm companies. Most MDs focus on their clinical work because thats what they're paid to do.
