Biology, chemistry, geology, psychology, sociology, law, business, medicine...

Are all fields people go into because they can't handle the math in physics or engineering.

>> No.3393608

Not quite.

>law and business
Sociopaths who don't care about what they have to do to get money.

>medicine
Nice people who want money.

>biology, chemistry
People who like doing experiments

>geology
People who like going outside.

pretty sure that physics majors have a higher acceptance rate because only a very small number of them actually apply to med schools, and those that do have fantastic grades. contrast this with the pre-med kiddies who all apply, while the majority of them just dont have the grades to get in

Does any of you fucks that to be good at Sociology you need to be able to speak and convince everyone in the fucking room? All leaders of the world have taken sociology.
Do you realize you need to actually write scientific essays and shit for Sociology?
You have to debate about every social problem that exists and make arguments and counter-arguments.
This is something that will actually be USEFUL in your life.
