He might be the one who is going to bring back all the hot girls and get you into the parties.

Who the fuck cares what any one else is doing at all? As long as your roommate is obnoxious then you have a been rather fortunate in the scheme of things. Try getting laid OP.

>Wanted to rage but remembers marketing class I took on the side having a more comprehensive stat. section than the one in the comp. sci. dept. raging harder now.

I used to be kind of 'wtf!?' about people who were silly majors, but I'm cool with it now. I've known a lot of shitty people in my department, and living with them sucked. I've had much better luck with music majors as my roommates/housemates, so I've softened up a bit.

Grad student here:

A little advice: Stop giving a fuck about your roommate taking the wrong major. Probability is you will fuck up your first major, and switch to an easier route your sophomore year.

So stop giving a shit about other people's bad decisions when you will make more fuckups than him anyway.

English majors are those faggots who are reading 24/7, and are dissecting every sentence for worthless bullshit. The people who constantly quote classic literature and are overall asswipes talking about writing an entire essay on one quote

Business majors are people who want to make money and have ambition/want to be entrepreneurs.

>>1240418
Bro I don't know where these imaginary schools are where people make $150k out of college regularly even with an MBA. I mean Wharton MBAs make that for sure but bro you're not getting that coming out of undergrad guaranteed. The people who get the best jobs out of undergrad alone are petroleum engineers who start at 90k but they only have to work an even 40 to get it. Those fucking churn and burn banking jobs that pay 120k aren't even worth it if you break it down hourly.

Hates Lawyers (despite the fact that they will be relying on them to run their own businesses, if they ever manage to start one that is.)
Not smart enough to go into pure economics
Dislikes reading
Thinks that getting a business degree will get them a good job right out of school

Thinks that they are equal to physicists, chemists, computer scientists, and biologists.

Former music guy here (Graduated in 2004 and am doing my second degree in medicine).

Music isn't hard because of the theory (although things like tritone substitutions can be a little confusing at first), but because of the huge number of hours you need to play your instrument (about 5 a day) to pass with good grades. Add on top of that aural practise (about an hour) listening (2 hours) and the rediculous contact hours at 90% of conservatoriums (I was at two, I got sent overseas on an exchange) makes it hard as fuck.

That's for the hardcore course though (Jazz). Classical is a bit easier, and contemporary is a walk in the park

Oldfag here. I know you scifags think you’re smart because you know what a fucking tensor is or whatever, but if any of you idiots think simply having an undergrad science education is going to get you shit, get in line with the english and cultural studies majors, open wide, and get ready to take a nice big bite of that shit sandwich called reality. You know what an undergrad physics degree gets you? A ticket to grad school to get a PhD and do research for the rest of you life for pennies. Same with chemistry. Bio has a bit more wiggle room with what’s going on in biotech these days, but even then a BS gets you in the door to be some phd or md’s fucking gopher and Amgen. If you’re good with math and science want a low six figure salary, go into engineering and get a masters. If you’re really good and really lucky you’ll hit 100k by your early 30s. If you’re really good and specialized, you might get 150 by your 40s. The big money in all this science shit goes to project managers and corporate people. So, get used to having you big smart science brain get told what to do by a bunch of MBAs and lawyers. If you want real money, do whatever the fuck you want for undergrad and then go to med school, law school or b-school and work on the business side of a technical industry.

I'm actually a low level GIS tech at a local municipality. Which basically I do a whole lot of work, for admittedly decent pay.
Like I said, that's where I make my money. Basically my firm has attached me to their GIS systems and I run everything in house and report to them directly. I am responsible for system updates and maintenance of all their sewer maps and also manage any projects they'd like done regarding those maps.

I even do field work taking coordinates and then geocoding them. I have certifications that aren't tied to any university major so my history major is really just a matter of personal interest. But I'm considering minoring or even double majoring in GIS to make myself more marketable.

If I keep doing this I'll eventually have the creds to net any 6 figure job I want- but you have to stay current on the latest tech. I swear, sometimes I feel like GIS is a fandom- if you aren't "hip" to the newest shit, you are left in the dust.

All the people that are arguing hurrr business majors are using outlier statistics(150 K). So are you when you bring up a Yale history major. The average MBA only makes 70k a year. That's 5k more than the starting salary of the average chem e and 15k less than the average starting petroleum engineer. http://www.payscale.com/research/US/Degree=Master_of_Business_Administration_(MBA)/Salary

Typical businessmen

>>1240980
You do realize that if you are working at a company that actually is making money, you, your superior, his superior, etc they are reporting to someone who has an MBA

Why don't you all quit arguing and face the facts:

Business majors need to take more science classes (math, programming) and nerds need to take more management classes (perhaps just get an MBA after).

You aren't shit unless you are well rounded AND specialized.

Good luck getting on that list faggot. Everyone knows its not going to happen. How about strive for something realistic? Like working for them making mads stacks of cash with your MBA

The richest people in the word are smart engineers and scientists. But most of the people in the 100K-200K bracket are Business majors.

Sorry I never took a logic course.
It's cool though, with my 250k yr starting I'm sure I could afford one

>My face

Looks like business majors are now on /sci/'s enemies list along with humanities and social science majors.

>>1241021
But the smartest people in the world aren't rich. Or, more accurately, they have no desire to be rich.

>>1241021

Then explain why the averages for MBAs are so low in comparison to engineers?

>>1241021
A reasonable and logical person on my /sci/
!!!!!

Business majors confirmed for little brother complex. Now go to your room. Seriously I was a poli sci major and I don't have delusions that what I did was better than what my best friend, who is a petro engineer did in undergrad. I caught him in grad school though.

smart person here

I don't want to be rich

I DO want to have enough resources to do anything I want

so I guess I do want to be rich?

>>1241027
It's like a Computer Science. A lot of retards join up and get a degree because they that think that its an easy ticket to prosperity.

Wow. Natural science fags sure are butthurt about MBAs making more money than them.

5,000 different types of engineers and an MBA only has a starting salary lower than 1 of them.

>>1241065
The truth, It hurts, doesn't it?

>>1241057
Maybe because the job potential of a petroleum engineer (the only one that competes with an MBA's salary) is relatively low
while an MBA's jobless is limitless? especially with a degree in econ as well.

>He still gives a shit about his salary!
This is why you're not a /sci/entist. Most of us would gladly live in our cars if it meant we could conduct meaningful research.
As long as I'm paid enough to feed my brain, all is well.

Job Potential of Scientist: Limitless.

>not adding to society

1/10 for getting me to respond

>>1241081
On the office floor, competing with other MBAs to see who can throw together the best spreadsheets? I'm sure.

>>1241081
Yes, because marketing the newest Miley Cyrus CD will be more meaningful to society than research which can potentially yield new scientific knowledge.

Wow. This thread was originally just about making fun of retarded humanities and social science majors. Then it turned ugly and the anti-businessfags came out and ruined it. Let's just let this thread die.

Deal with it business majors. No scientist is ever going to respect your intellect and they're probablygoing to make more money than you. If you want more money, do more difficult things. That's how capitalism works. But of course you knew that right?

>>1241183
Yeah, nothing says income like science. Engineering, sure. But pure scientists don't make shit.

>>1241021
>The richest people in the word are smart engineers and mathematicians.

You almost wrote "scientists" there, for a sec, buddy. I fixed it or you, though.

I was an English major and got a job as an analyst at a bulge bracket investment bank. I probably make more than any engineer / scientist here.
