Alright lads, I dropped out from my philosophy major after realizing I would likely end up homeless if I kept following that path and I have decided to try getting into a STEM field before I'm way too old for this shit. I was wondering if someone could clear up what I can actually work in with each degree so I don't regret my choice later.

I was thinking about picking up Computer Sciences because I like logic and math, and programming my own software sounds like it could fun. Is this actually a good degree to get or just a meme? Other options I thought about would be
>Mathematics
But I don't know what a mathematician actually does and I'm afraid I might be too brainlet to finish it.
>Physics
Again, I don't know what a physicist actually works with other than teaching in grad schools, which is a terrible job in my country.

Also, are there any other interesting degree choices I should look into? Thanks in advance.

Hi /sci/. I'm feeling a little worried about becoming a physicist. I'm starting to think I'm too stupid to do it. I got 90 on my official IQ test. I still can't tie a knot. I've been trying to memorize my times tables but I seem to be having trouble. I'm 18 and I can't seem to figure basic stuff out. I've been trying to use Kahn Academy but I can't get past multiplication. Should I just give up? Try something else entirely?

Our satellites and the Moon are able to orbit the Earth because the centrifugal and centripetal forces are in equilibrium.
