/sci/ I need help. It's about what I want to do with my life. All I know is that I like physics and math, and couldn't study anything else. Should I become a Physicist (theoretical) or a Mathematician?

What's the job outlook like, the job itself and the salary for the two?

>>	Anonymous Thu Oct 7 15:48:38 2010 No.1862052 mathematicians have a better job outlook but physicists get paid more. In the future, with space and stuff, Physics will be more important. But I doubt you'll live to that time anyways.

>>	Anonymous Thu Oct 7 16:10:38 2010 No.1862140 >>1862012 Aeronautical or Aerospace engineer sounds right up your alley, but, how do you feel about design?

>>	Anonymous Thu Oct 7 16:12:38 2010 No.1862146 >>1862140 I'd always like to build jets or spacecraft or such, but apparently, it's more stress and less pay than Physicists. So.

>>	Anonymous Thu Oct 7 16:17:38 2010 No.1862164 >>1862146 It's also easier to get a well paying job in. Physicists only get well paid jobs if they're really good.

>>	Anonymous Thu Oct 7 16:19:38 2010 No.1862171 >>1862146 >I'd always like to build jets or spacecraft or such And you probably wouldn't get that kind of job for a long time, you'd probably be designing small passenger craft and what not for quite a while.

>>	Anonymous Thu Oct 7 19:32:38 2010 No.1862890 >>1862012 Neither, you are not smart enough to do either of them well. The only exceptions are the math olympiad winner kids, which you are not.
