/uni/ general

What part of the degree do you dislike the most? You could always try switching to different engineering major and see if that makes you happier.

Math
1st year PhD going on 2nd
3.5 probably
No lol
No lol
Sitting at a comfy 6

Nothing is what I expected to be and I want out but also don't want out because there's a certain ease that comes with passivity and going with the tide. But god this town is in the middle of fucking nowhere and is populated entirely by normies and I fucking hate it here. At least if I was back in the city I'd have some possibility of friendship.

I'm sick of math and science. I've always been good at it but more inclined towards humanities. Now I just miss writing essays and reading. I'm sick of looking up equilibrium data and plugging and chugging and taking integrals and reading graphs.
An english degree is useless, so I figure public policy is somewhere in the middle where it's marketable and involves some math and such, but also involves some of the skills you'd use in a humanities area.
I don't know why I chose engineering in the first place. I'd always been adamant I didn't want to do it when my dad encouraged me to pursue it, yet I chose it anyways. And yet, when I eventually did choose it, partially because of his pressure, he made me read an essay about how women aren't meant for stem. reeeeeee

I made some friends for the first time in years. Going to no-life classic WoW with them for a few weeks till fall classes begin. I'm kinda depressed but kinda not. I just wanna enjoy life. If that means living with my parents and no girlfriend for the rest of my life then maybe that's way it should be.

This thread reminded me that's it's been a whole year since I dropped out of college

Anyone else here a loser in debt with no future?

Realistically probably a 3. Things are looking alright health-wise, and my studies/social life balance is okay. I just wish I didn't pick such a dead-end career choice. Like so few people in my field become successful it's just crazy to even try.

>major
Psychology
>year
1
>GPA
3.3 (here this is a bad C)
>clubs or organizations?
None bc online
>internships/coops?
I get gov money as is normal with every uni student here, so the uni is basically free (300/month). if i wasnt stupid i could have done uni for 200/year while cashing in 300/month
>how much do you wanna kys 1-10
2 bc now i remembered im stupid

That sounds like a comfy major. I wish my university has it.

lol no, gonna start looking for work experience for the end of the year soon
>how much do you wanna kys 1-10
like 2 rn, but i always hit at least an 8 before the end of term when i remember i hate what i do

There are tons of opportunities in music. What are you looking into at the moment?

>major
maths
>year

>GPA
low. like 2.8 or something.
>clubs or organizations?
none. i'm vaguely part of the math club because a classmate brought me to the meetings but he only did so because he wanted me to vote for him.
>internships/coops?
none. maybe i'll get one of those amateur undergrad problems that need to get solved done and try to get my name out there
>how much do you wanna kys 1-10
10, honestly. Going into uni really made me realize just how much of a brainlet I am. It's nice to not have any delusions but all my parents seem to think that anything less than a 4.0 is unacceptable. I remember my dad talking me out of engineering telling me i'd just be some backroom nerd and told me that being a "quant" in physics or mathematics would pay way better. I just kind of believed the old guy since he's pretty successful in business himself. Thing is, though, being a quant requires you to basically be a turbo phd in maths with all sorts of good shit on your resume, like you gotta be top of your field to make quant cash. The alternative is being in finance and getting fucked over by a shitty job that pays well but makes me want to kill myself, or maybe i could get something in software dev being a maths guy. But none of it really matters anymore to me, I just want to die, I have no ambitions, hopes, or dreams anymore, nothing makes any difference to me. Everyone keeps giving me shitty fucking advice and I keep fucking taking it and now I'm 22 and I don't even know who I am anymore.

I remember being 17 in junior year and wanting to kill myself, but I told myself instead I'll just run away. I wish I had done that. running away from home at 17 at least sounds cool. Being a loser at 22 is so much worse

I empathize with this user. I'm majoring in STEM and fucking hate mathematics and STEM classes/lectures and absolutely hate studying. I love reading fiction, history or philosophy books but humanities is such a grap bin of neoliberalism and low paying work edged against nepotism that I could never switch, and I am in too deep now.

8, I enjoy the major but holy fuck it's difficult.

Do you really think that's all music majors do? Pull your head out of your stupid nigger asshole.

I took a year off and can't wait until the semester starts. Anyone else took a break, and for how long?

I took a semester off to work and figure out what I actually wanted to do since I had switched my majors 3 times. Settled on mechanical engineering and I'm going into my last year.

>>major
Mechanical engineering, with control engineering electives and a biomedical thesis.
And an economics second major.
>>year
5th year of a 5 year BSc + MEng course
>>GPA
6.1 out of 7
>>clubs or organizations?
Spent a bit of time at the motorsport club, but didn't have time to take on extra work. Spent a bit of time at the anime club, stopped going because it was boring and awkward. My only real extracurriculars are competing in data science competitions.
>>internships/coops?
4 weeks or so at an engineering consultant that maintained a gas plant and did a machine learning project. The company is a mess, I'd die if I worked there long term.
12 weeks at another engineering consultant that did flow assurance where I used excel macros to automate work, used machine learning to optimise simulations and then spend a few weeks doing actual billable flow assurance work. Great experience.
>>how much do you wanna kys 1-10
Like a 3.
This is the highest it's been ever. I've been fucked big time on my thesis. My advisor is completely unhelpful and I only my first results AFTER THE DUE DATE. Luckily I've had extensions approved with the support of a psychologist.

>Japanese and TESOL
>4
>B- Average dunno what GPA is
>Japanese conversation club. Don't go that often, have Japanese friends outside of uni that I prefer. Met one cutie there, me and my girlfriend go on dates with her sometime. Next week we are going Karaoke together
>Nope
>1/10
Got a job lined up in Japan a month after I graduate. One more essay thats more or less done and I'm free

how do you go to college but not have a GPA? whatever, but yours is around a 2.7 which is pretty shit to be brutally honest (competitive GPA's are usually >3.5, 4.0 means straight A's).

but it doesn't really matter that much anyway since you already have a job. what's your native country?

>but the thought of letting down those who I love sucks sometimes.
Fuck that shit. Just become a music teacher and join a band. Your 'loved' ones are a bunch of douches.

glad to see there are some math majors here

>major
maths
>year
going to be a "super senior" to finish 1 last semester
>GPA
3.1 ish I think
>clubs or organizations
one of those social fraternities, math club, and a jewish student organization on campus
>internships/coops
none :/
>kys
2 right now, but if i dont get into a single graduate school program it will be a solid 10

>summer plans
taking a 4 week partial differential equations class soon with my favorite prof so hopefully the class wont rape me

>fall plans
fucking survive so i can finally graduate, and also look for grad schools

I know this is crazy, but some universities don't even have grades. Let alone something as retarded as a "GPA". You either pass or fail, there's no reason to assign some autistic number to it. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narrative_evaluation

Whats it like? so i know what to expect lol

also where in the middle of nowhere are you?

>>major
History with Music Production minor

>>year
last year, finished now

>>GPA
2:1 or 2:2

>>clubs or organizations?
none

>>internships/coops?
none but I'm applying at least

>>how much do you wanna kys 1-10
