How's that shitty university treating you?

Oh, don't tell me! You go to a community college and think you're intelligent?

>>2825974
>leave /sp/ immediately.

You know OP maybe you wouldn't be so miserable if you relaxed, stayed positive, and didn't have a superiority complex.

>>2825984
>mfw i'm going to a uni probably higher than urs (it's in top 15) studying chemistry
>oh, and i'm planning to go to med school
>u mad

pompous tripfag you are

>implying I go to /sp/

>this thread

>namefags at their finest

I think it's YOUR kind that best GTFO. Now.

Well I can't afford to go to school so I guess I can no longer troll /sp/ with DA BEARS threads.

what a shame

>>2825984

I go to a community college because its cheaper, and I bet ill rock your socks with my math skills.

>>2825974
lol OP, where do you go?
Northwestern?
Have fun being an unemployed english major.

i don't think i've ever been to /sp/. Does that count?

>>2826130
Problem community collegefag?

Deal with it.

Why does everyone do Mechanical?

I love going to Northwestern. I don't have to deal with intellectual plebeians. I'm assuming it's only going to get better when I head over to Palo Alto.

let me guess, you are:

Have fun with that while I'm over here making superbabies. U mad bro?

>>2826150

Problem samefag?

Do you have a problem with my BA in chemistry, pretentiousfag?

>go to flagship state university
>4.0/shining EC thanks to all of the resources
>in-state tuition like 5k + 10k -- covered by scholarships
>mfw I leave college with no debt and any job I want

>>2826173
Geneticist, bioengineering...?

I was thinking about heading in that direction. Geneticists actually contribute something.

>>2826201

>Go to private college everyone considers shit-tier
>Huge scholarship to make the college look better

Why nigga why?

>>2826201
>state university with 4.0

You could have gotten a full ride somewhere decent bro.

>>2826226
Because employers don't generally give a shit if you took the same courses. Also because my Uni only offers BA's. Also, going to get masters anyways, so it doesn't matter.

>>2826226
The dept head of chemistry actually suggested for me to get a BA instead of a BS in biochem. I was like uhh..WAT. He said I could shave off a semester or two of undergrad and still get most jobs as a difference between a BA and a BS isn't that big when applying for a job. I'm still unsure about it, however.

>>2826230
>employers don't give a shit if you got your masters at Stanford or Buttfuck-nowhere State

Cool story bro.

>>2826218
The thing with the people that spend 30k+ on college don't get is that they are paying for the name. I can literally go to MIT open course ware and follow along classes and I see little difference between those professors and mine except for the 10x higher tuition costs. When you are young borrowing 50k for a name seems like nothing because "obviously" you are going to get a job that pays six-figures out of college. It's only until they see that money come out of their pockets every month and look at their boss that went to UCLA that they realize they fucked up.

>>2826246
I'm not this guy >>2826230, btw.

>haha undergrads compare majors
enjoy thinking your undergrad degree matters to anyone but grad schools (even then it's just gpa and research they care about)

>>2826228
>hatin' on state universities
>my state's "flagship" university has been consistently rated among Ivy League schools in regards to science programs
>why so grandiose?

>>2826248
Well, considering the field i'm going into, it doesn't really matter if I go to butt-fuck nowhere, as there are tons of jobs open in that particular field anyways;
And no, i'm not going to inform you what field that is, as people will read it, it will spread across the internet, and everyone will be like
"Zomg tons of job opportunities" and ruin it.

>>2826251
Enjoy telling yourself that in the mirror.

>>2826261
I know what you mean though. There are some state universities that are damn good.

Like in California, Cal Poly is better than a lot of the UCs

>>2826228
I'm maintaining that in college. I had like a 3.6 gpa in HS with 2250 SATs and no ECs. It worked out for the better because they accepted my AP credits and a 12 credits I had got in a city college.

>>2826251

To be fair, those big names can play an important role when it comes to things like doing research.
When someone like DARPA needs some shit MIT researches always seem to be behind it somehow.

But yeah, when it comes to actual education, anyone who thinks they're smarter because they learned Calculus at MIT vs anywhere else is fucking stupid.

>>2826251
>>2826263

Your a retard OP, its only graduate school that necessarily needs a big name attached to it. Spending 250k for a science degree from Harvard is fucking retarded.

Also, the difference in pay for people coming out of MIT with an engineering degree versus Georgia Tech or UCLA is only about 15,000 more with just a bachelors. However, you have like twice the debt.

lul i get to stay

>>2826263
enjoy paying for your student loans instead of going on vacation.

>>2826277
ucla and georgia tech are both top 25 universities (well gt for engineering)

>>2826260
>implying I won't be more qualified to do your job by the time I'm done with school.

>>2826283
>implying you wont get the same pay


>twice the debt haha

>>2826283

>Implying that my field has an overload of graduates in it, unlike yours.

I'm $60,000 in debt and trying to not give a fuck.

>>2826286
I finised high school with a 4.5-4.6 with 2250 on SAT and 35 on the ACT. I got a full ride to Northwestern and now got a full ride to Stanford.

I guarantee I will be making more money than you and I'll be stepping out of Stanford graduation without a cent of debt.

If you have to PAY to go to a big name college then you're just a fucking retard. Regardless, employers are always going to pick the bigger name school if the other stats are similar.

>>2826291
>implying I won't be more qualified regardless of your field

>>2826277
Cantbelieveheactuallypaysforcollege.jpg

>>2826230
AHAHHA that's exactly what all my friends in state universities that fucked up in high school say.

>>2826277
I have no problem with UCLA. I applied there for undergrad.

haha owned

>>2826356

great, you go to a university that has name recognition.

however, you don't have name recognition, which is why you're so desperate to attach yourself to a university and discredit others.

until you do something that i, or anyone else, should actually care about because it is important or cool, bragging about getting into a college is going to be the best thing you have to say about yourself. which is pathetic.

do something noteworthy and then you won't have to spend all of your free time trying to justify your own small existence on internet forums.

>>2826377
>more bang for their recruiting buck

Damn that shit was in the intro too bro!

Of course they can get people from state universities on the cheap.

>>2826391
I'm pretty sure I told psychology majors they need to go.

What employer isn't going to higher me with undergrad at Northwestern and Grad at Stanford?

>>2826392

I guess shit like reading shit in their entirety isn't something you TOP 25 schools need to do.

>"The Journal asked companies to rank schools that produce the best-qualified graduates—overall and by major. Recruiters made clear they preferred big state schools over elite liberal arts schools, such as the Ivies."

>>2826393

>What employer isn't going to higher me with undergrad at Northwestern and Grad at Stanford?

hire?

and i'm not a psychology major. i'm in grad school for astrophysics and i know that since i haven't done shit yet, that it doesn't mean anything.

really, just go ask your mom for a hug.

>>2826415
My bad, I've been celebrating.

OP, that's cool you got into Stanford and all, but unless you can link to some research you've done or anything published, you're still shit-tier to me
