What you learn in Uni is essencial to get you a solid foundation. Of course you can teach yourself, just be willing to put in the extra work.

I think the whole issue of going to university to learn a specific task. Isn't the right way to go about it.

University programs are consistently 4-5 years behind on how shit operates on the real world.

With companies especially smaller ones they're constantly adapting to new programs, methodologies and manners of doing things.


The university is this large stogy peer reviewed mess that moves at a slow pace.

You could be taught how to do something through a program designed 10 years ago with the only updates being a few electives slapped on it.

That's why people like Donald trump always argue for technical schools.

I saw this once I started getting into Medical training self study, at the University level they were still teaching the cravat and stick method of tournaquiet usage and saying shit like how you'll likely lose a limb

But research and development from the war in Afghanistan showed property TQ usage and we ended up at gen 7 combat application tournaquiets being the go to for every massive trauma car accident in every medic's bag.

Even anti-fa in CHAZ were seen applying CAT7s to each other when rubber bullets penetrated the skin the proper treatment for gun shot wounds.

That's an ancedote but it shows you that even anti-fa is more up to date on basic medical care than a university system is...that relies onnpeer reviewed white papers to move along

Bottom barrel prestige but it's the most in-demand specialty and you can get a job anywhere. I'll be content working 4 days a week for $200-300k with no call and working at a non-profit to get loan forgiveness. Best consistent growth in salary whereas even surgery has seen dips in growth. One of the few specialties you get to form true bonds with patients and the community: it's a win-win for me.

My man. Can't go wrong with either, just figure out where you see yourself in terms of outpatient/inpatient and whether you want to do peds/women's health.

My mentor goes full on trad with thousands of dollars on his wrist while doing INDs. All of my residency is wearing scrubs in clinic/hospital due to COVID but I'm still going for business casual because I refuse to look like a trash bag.

Good luck with the upcoming interview season later this year. It's going to be a mess with zoom interviews, I'm sorry. At least it'll be cheaper. I don't know how they're going to do away rotations either. I pray your grad year will have a real graduation but who knows at this point.

You have a point about me using the 90+th percentile of engineers.

Let's put it this way, there's nothing special about going to a lower-middle tier MD school or a DO school in the states.

I respect medical students in canada and europe for example because the standards to get in are a lot higher, whereas in america you just need mediocre grades and money to get in.

Just compare average matriculant gpa/mcat from schools in ontario to even the mid tier schools in the states.

Did a pre-med rape you or something?

I've sat on admission committees and you need more than "mediocre grades" to get into any school. I come from a poor family and got in, money is not a prerequisite. Student loans exist for a reason. There are even assistance programs to help you apply if you can't afford application fees. Never mind the fact that you need letters of recommendation, extra-curricular activities and have to go through the interview process to prove you're not a drooling retard. You clearly have no idea what you're talking about. Canadian and European schools are difficult to get into for sure, there are less of them but then again they don't put you into insane debt like US ones.

You might be thinking of Caribbean schools who have scant requirements and are expensive as fuck, a large portion of US physicians come through that system.

I can post statistics, the average MD gpa is 3.5 lmfao and the mcat score is in the 70th percentile

You're not wrong on the first part, Tyrone won't be as great of an engineer as Nelson.
However, Tyrone could still make it as a decent engineer, but Nelson wouldn't ever be able to make it at all as a doctor.

I have a good gpa and a very high lsat so I don't think getting into a t 14 would be any trouble. I would want to be a judge.
But I really enjoy architecture and my family is all in the construction industry so getting a jumpstart in my firm would also be easy.
Both grad school programs are very difficult to that isn't a problem....

Law is for fags, went to a couple of UC Davis law school parties and they were all dipshits. Not to mention that their parties were lame. Every single one of them had a chip on their shoulder when I told them I was in medical school (I have since graduated.) It's an ignoble profession, you produce nothing and truly help no one. One of the most bottom barrel professions out there. You're a leech.

With architecture you produce beauty and function rolled into one package. Industry, homes, art, you do it all. If I was more creative I would have done that, but I don't have an eye for design in that sense.

Turns out for 99% of the jobs out there you just fill in spreadsheets all day and just translate some data off a graph and sign off on it. Ive pulled out my calculator like 3 times since ive left uni.

You need an accredited degree. That is either a 5 year professional program, 4 year arch undergrad unaccredited to 2 year accredited masters, or if you have an unrelated undergrad than a 3 years masters program. After that you need to "intern" for a couple years and then pass all the testings needed to get your license. Then if you work as a wagecuck and don't try to start your own firm you'll make pretty shit money for the level of work and education you have. The money and prestige of the profession only exists if you do your own thing. You are also seen as the least essential part of most construction so many projects don't even use them(if you ever wanted to know why most arch in the usa looks like shit) and in an economic downturn you're the first thing to be cut. Only go into this profession if you can't see yourself doing anything else. I'm only considering it because I've been obsessed with architecture since I was a kid, I have school work I wrote in the first grade saying that I wanted to be an architect when I grew up, and since my family is heavily involved in the construction industry I have the privilege of avoiding most of the hurdles
If you just want to be involved in real estate or construction there is no use getting an architecture degree unless you have enough money and time to learn it for your own interest

Thanks for the heads up. Sounds like it's not worth it.
My current plan is to start a real estate pre-licensing course soon and get a real estate license. Specifically I want to do commercial real estate. Do that for a few years, learn the ins and outs of the industry and market and then try and transition to property development with the ultimate goal of being a developer and being in charge of the projects.
I think it's best to just keep drawing buildings as a hobby and not try and make it an actual career.

Have you ever considered why we need trust fund kids such as yourself to understand basic common law? Law is not the noble pursuit it once was. It's convoluted, obtuse and used as a method of control. You are not fucking Hammurabi, you are not forming the foundations for city states, there is no great constitution for you to draft. You're a dipshit who couldn't make it in a real profession (engineering, medicine, trades etc) so you opted for something with a title that at least makes your parents not cry at night. I have no understanding of the work of most lawyers because it is not a noble profession and therefore I have no interest in it. In addition, there are plenty of knuckle dragging apes in the legal department to handle it for me. At man's basest senses, at the bottom of Mawlow's pyramid, we have physiologic need. Medicine. Health. I don't there's a spot on the pyramid for "cock sucking lawyer."

>And the JD is a masters and not a doctorate retard
"The Juris Doctor degree (J.D. or JD), also known as the Doctor of Jurisprudence degree (J.D., JD, D.Jur. or DJur), is a graduate-entry professional degree in law and one of several Doctor of Law degrees...

Pathetic. How do you hope to practice law?

Do you think your average lawyer is more important than Rembrandt or Nietzsche? Do you think that your average lawyer is a supreme court justice? Your logic is folly. The greatest physicians and clinical researchers are not my benchmark. I know am nothing more than a cog in a machine. But despite this I know physicians are teachers, mentors, and pillars of their respective communities and make differences in the lives of individuals who are hoping to achieve something great (i.e. not becoming a lawyer). This has always been the aim of physicians, the only difference is our methods have become more scientific.

Living a long and healthy life allows one to fully explore the "human mind's potential for higher thought." I don't know who you are or what your ambitions are but I do know that you're a cocksucker. I know that when you're presenting to the ED for shortness of breath/chest pain/fever secondary to possible aspiration pneumonia (from aspirating cum and vomit) vs pneumonitis (from aspirating acidic gastric fluid as well as cum) you wont be thinking of politics, the museum of modern art or Tolstoy; you'll be thinking about how hard it is to breathe.

During my math bachelor's I kept pretty much to myself but the people I did talk to for the most part were pretty cool, although maybe a bit weird. One guy made me do some dumb project (simulation) with a 20 page paper pretty much all by myself, but then puts that shit on his resume which makes me think all that cool-looking stuff on there is a sham. Another was a big hipster, liked cigars, weed, day-trading, etc. He was a C student, and became a high school teacher. Another was pretty cute, got me to come to the Putnam practices/exam, and I remember he said something which made me think he had a hidden edgy side. He also exceeded in programming competitions, so I think he'll end up at Google or something. One was doing a music degree, had dark skin but vivid green eyes that'd light up when talking about music. There were a few cute white guys that just wanted to go on to do research -- I know the most attractive one did pretty well on the Putnam exam and is currently doing a PhD -- guys seemed to dislike him, I think because they were jelly / thought he was arrogant, but I think he had the right to be, and he was nice to me. There was one incredibly obese girl who was very friendly, liked to laugh, but talked too much when we would be studying for exams, hence she didn't do too well.

I think the biggest tismo's belong to the CS department, but as a proportion of their department, not that big. I took CS1 and did better than the majority of them. I remember complaints about binary searching to cut a circle into the right ratio of areas was "too mathy" despite having access to google. Also, the teacher wrote his own plagiarism code-checker and flagged maybe half the class, and like 90% of some other (known to be hard) class.

This was a big rambling but it was mostly for myself, fun remembering. :-)

In the end, I don't think math people are very /fa/, but pretty much no one is. Here's me for example. Came here to see if there were any threads that'd inspire me.

This was a good thread.
Cheers mates.

Someone should make another. Like an effay majors and careers thread to keep it on topic
