Redpill me on a physics major. Is it useless? Is it better to just go /eng/? What do physics majors do?

Physics.

Haven't someone already done physics..? What's left to do anyway?

>Shitting up the board with questions you could easily Google yourself

You'd do well in engineering.

Investment Banking, Code-monkeying or research most likely.

If you want to be mediocre just go into engineering or CS, major in physics if you feel like you want to enter very competitive areas such as banking or research.

Eh. You'll most likely become a teacher or unemployed. If you want a nice wife, house, car, etc., become an engineer. It's where most of the money is nowadays. Just look at SpaceX.

Study engineering. ME, EE, or CE. If you really, really love the purity of physics and still want to be employable, study engineering physics.

We understand like 4% of our universe and not even that completely.

Plenty of reasons to do physics. I think, humanity was never aware of so many things we don't understand

I love phy I'm doing it rn.

If you do physics, you will most likely have to do a master's or PhD. Then even after that the job market can be pretty tight depending on what you're working on.

Honestly OP, unless you're really good. Like top 1% of your class with a 4.0 do engineering instead.

t.phys PhD defending next month.

>everyone who uses terminology I don't like is X and I don't wish to be associated with them
I don't mean to shit on you, because I see you in almost every thread, and appreciate what you do because it makes me giggle, but isn't that actually a tribalistic action you're taking by saying that?
