Donate your brain to science, you aren't using it anyways.

This argument doesn't hold up under scrutiny, though. Most people do the Math + CS double major because they feel like they want an in depth understand of CS while getting a full mathematics education.

Suppose they took the most brainlet CS courses. Suppose their school didn't offer compilers, automata, and advanced algorithms. Suppose instead that they were offered webdev and software engineering classes. At my school (and at all others I've seen), you take the standard calculus sequence, into to linear algebra, and then an intro proof course. You then have to take analysis, probability theory, and 8 other upper level electives like topology, abstract algebra, differential geometry, etc. This board talks about the merits of a mathematics education, and seeing as how math education in undergrad isn't too different across different schools, your argument reeks of bitterness. You're not somehow superior to a person who double majored in your subject and something else because they took "muh weaker courses."

Considering I'll be a NEET for a bit, I'll be doing nothing but that.

Looks like I'll have to rev up those torrents; however, I haven't taken any serious physics courses.

Anyway, thanks for the help, anons! I hope this thread helped others in a similar situation. These questions were originally for one of my math professors, but he got fired before I could ask him.
