U Penn, sticking out a Ph.D in nursing.

Ivy League and Ph.D = I shit on you fucking plebs.

oh look a dick waving contest

Ph.D in nursing = couldnt make it as a doctor

>>1346076
>nursing

>>1346082
oh look, a community collegefag

>>1346067
that was my fall back dude

>>1346088
no, this is my university, and I'm in a PhD program.

but I have no need to flaunt it in a dick waving contest

implying nursing isnt one of the hardest professions in existance

>>1346132
>implying it is

>>1346132
>implying the ability to spell would not be a requirement to get onto such a difficult course at such a good university

>>1346132

>>1346076
Why would anyone get a PhD in nursing? do you get more money by doing this?

>>1346102
you just flaunted it in a dick waving contest

Portland State, Biochemistry

>>1346076

So... couldn't cut it as a MD?

Or just a solid troll

No, there's nothing wrong with it, but every time these threads are made shit like >>1346076 happens and it devolves into a my school/major is better than yours. Keep an eye on this thread and you'll see.

mechanical engineering

computer science (lvl3)

Bob Jones University

Biology undergrad

Top 5 university here (won't say which one, don't want any stalkers here), all I can say. I laught at you pathetic fucks, wasting away with subpar salaries, begging for jobs or just plain jobless. I'll be working at a top position in a top corporation, controlling your very lives, you tools. I'm smarter than 5 of you put together. Feels good man.

>>1346301
>>1346301

>>1346301
Let me guess: you're taking a PhD in mathematics?

>>1346300
I saw what you did there

>>1346301
you have poor trolling skills. it makes me sad

>>1346060
>Christian University

Wow, dude, that's a fucking combination of fail if I ever saw one.

lol undergrad fags

>>1346305
>>1346310
>>1346313
LOL, I KNEW IT. I knew people wouldn't believe me. Go on with your denial, doesn't effect me.

UCF
Medical Laboratory Science

I got accepted to my dream university, UF but they had no MLS major :/

feels bad man

>>1346075
well i guess they DID say florida is for the gays.

>>1346329
why would you apply then?

Wow seeing a lot of fail univerisities ITT:

>>1346329
Would you recommend UCF for a grad school? I am considering this.

>>1346060
hope you're trolling.

>>1346345
Nah, it's shit-tier.

>>1346329

that's because UF is not a community college

Any university that is not top 10 (MAYBE 15) is horrible. Really no point in wasting your time in any of them...

>>1346345

UCF is one of the worst schools in the state of florida....

>>1346301
i bet thats all true

>>1346317
>implying you were never an undergrad

ITT: shit-tier, the very definition of it.

>>1346372

troll harder

>>1346377
hey, there has been like one university I would strongly consider in addition to my most (if money wasnt an issue, loving my in state tuition)

Not one good school here. Typical /sci/.

Iowa State University

Biology

>>1346396
Probably why most discusions are fucking retarded.

>>1346392
I dont even think he was trolling

>>1346398

Isn't University of Iowa better in nearly all fields aside from engineering?

>>1346396
Biddy begs to differ

>>1346398
LOL, tripfag brings on the fail. How stereotypical of tripfags.

>>1346357
No, they cut their MLS to save money
>>1346362
yall trolling'
>>1346345
One of the top 3 out of 15. lots of undergrads, many post grads. id recommend it
>>1346336
To poor to go out of state, even with a large scholarship. And, bright futures is only in Florida.

>>1346060
terribad
>>1346067
bad
>>1346074
lolbad
>>1346075
u srs?
>>1346076
meh

I was hoping better from /sci/ Penn and Wisconsin are the only top universities here, they are the only ones consider transferring to

MSU

Chem E

Not top 10=utter fail. GTFO.

We should ban everyone not from a top 15 uni. Maybe /sci/ will be better then after all.

Cornell.
Pursuing Ph.D in nuclear physics.

Yale
Philosophy

We need to kill all people not from a US News Top 39 school.

>>1346405

No. our Agriculture and Life Sciences departments are some of the best in the nation, and definitely better than U of I (unless you're specifically going for pre-med). And yes, we're one of the top 3 engineering schools in the nation.

>>1346408
Let me guess, you saw the word "Iowa" and made a bunch of assumptions. You can always tell someone's a jackass when they say things like "omg IOWA LOL"

Wilfrid Laurier University

>>1346452

NC State University - Nuclear Engineering

Turned down a full ride to Cornell :-)

>>1346411

UCF is even worse then USF, bro.

It's a third tier unranked school

Enjoy your fail.

Strasbourg. France.

Roman Archeology.

>>1346498

Why would you do that? Cornell is a much better school...

>>1346214
Hey i just bought that book.
Kudos to you

>>1346512

A couple of reasons. They didn't quite have the major they wanted and the scholarship was through the Army. By the time I got it I had decided I was done with the Army and the Department of Defense in general.

>>1346515
I can vouch for the authors, they were my professors last year and are great
>>1346261
this is dave nelson he is one of my favorite professors ever

>>1346544

lol army "scholarships" sure are hard to get

but good choice on not becoming a seaman

What is with the extremely inflammatory remarks in this thread? You people are acting like the university you go to is the primary factor in how much and what you know.

>>1346556
No shit, I did ROTC in high school and was one of the only people that could tie my own shoes. Everyone wanted me to go Navy because of nuclear, but...meh.

>>1346569
its not the primary factor but it is a good indicator
as generally better universities are hard to get into so more often than not on the point of entering some one at an elite university is going to know more than some one at a shit university

Purdue

PhD in EE

>>1346076
It's so easy to troll, isn't it?

>>1346583
I don't follow your logic.
A)Good universities are the ones that are difficult to get into.
B)People at "good" universities know more.

I don't understand how this refutes my statement, or even how premise A and B are linked.

Binghamton University

im at UW too OP
MMI major here

spsu
Mechatronics engineering

University of Hard Knocks

BS in Punching Your Face

>>1346793
whats a spsu

>>1346620
you could say top tier university students may know less because high school students a and b of equal potential choose different class schedules, with a's being much more challenging. student a receives a lower gpa than b because of the increased difficulty, but is rewarded with the knowledge gained from the challenging classes. student b receives a higher gpa than student a and enters a better ranked university than student a does.

>>1346832
which is why GPA is weighted

Eastern Michigan University

Biochemistry.

>>1346832
>implying elite universities dont take into account classes taken just as much as GPA
also in many high schools they weight the GPA for harder classes

>>1346498

Fuck yeah Nuclear Engineering!

>>1346793
Hi David!

Also

University of Tennessee
Nuclear Engineering

>>1346840
>he doesn't realize that not all high school "honors" classes are weighted by universities in their calculation of gpa, or that taking one college level course indicates an equal level of difficulty to another college level course

protip: many high schools inflate gpas to increase student competitiveness in regards to college admissions leading to some universities not accepting shit like "honors gym" as being weighted

how is it possible that so many scientists and engineers are such fucking lunatics? (on 4chan = fucking lunatic, right?)

>>1347058
Keep telling yourself that.

>>1347084
i don't remember there being a state called wichita

>>1347090
well look it up, its a state university that is located in Wichita Kansas, herp derp

The Pennsylvania State University

GeoScience

If I got my undergraduate degree in political science, but now realize the error of my ways, is it possible to complete a substantial amount of quantitative and scientific coursework at a community college and then apply to, say, a masters program in engineering?

Or am I essentially doomed to complete another undergraduate degree?

Civil Engineering
Go ahead and make fun of me.
>>1347085
Because it's full of smart, anti-social people.

>>1347084

>>1347113
It is possible to complete the necessary coursework but with a nontechnical degree it wont be easy to get into a good engineering grad school that way. it will be even harder if you take those courses at a CC

>>1347085
>implying being in undergrad/lying makes you a scientist.

>>1347114
Would you recommend FSU for grad school?

>>1347147
depends on major haha.
i like it fine though.

>>1347113
Sure, but it'll always be a battle from behind. Better to just do a second undergrad. I would recommend keeping your day job, starting your degree at a community college, and then transferring to a good school, where you can finish it in two years.

>>1347155
For either computer engineering or electrical?

>>1346189
>Portland State
>below shit tier

im jealous of you OP

>>1347133
>>1347161
Thanks guys. I knew that was the deal, but I just wanted to hear it again.

I'm going to go ahead and start with night classes, than do my second or third year as a full-timer before transferring, hopefully somewhere worth a damn.

youre all faggots

>>1347255
u mad?
im not sure why though

undergrad is serious business
