yeah, just saw this thread, OP is a giant per-pubescent faggot. I make 11k a year stipend, and I have more money than I need. I dont see how people can think 25k is not a lot. I dont have a wife and kids, so 950 bucks a month is enough for me to live on. What program are you in? Im getting MS in math, PHD stipends are generally in the 20,000s.

OP here is some advice: if you are trying to find a career that you can make a lot of money, you might think STEM. I see kids like you all the fucking time in the lab I tutor in.

Hey freshman fagget, what can I do for you? "I need help taking this derivative..." Ok, what class are you in out of curiosity? "Engineering Calculus, I want to make lots of money. I really hate math though."

Fast Forward 14 weeks, kid fails out of Calc 1, switches majors to either business, psychology, or social work. Accumulates debt over the next four years and has no job prospects.

TL,DR: If you want to do STEM, get off chan and open a math book. Quit worrying about the objective look on the ultimate payoff.

probably latter. As a tutor at my university, I can say without a doubt, non-traditional students piss me off more than anything. They are always the dumbest fucks to be seen

"I havent had math in 8 years"
"I always bring my phone out to calculate my tip"
bitch-bitchbitch....they act like they havent seen a fucking number in their entire life, and I am supposed to cram everything they should have learned up to that point into their skulls an hour before their tests.

Hey /sci/, dumbfag here. Is the opencourseware stuff from MIT through enough to give a decent overview of basic physics for my own personal enrichment?
