I need your opinion on something. So I've been studying for a year now International Business and its boring as fuck. I wish I could study something like mechanical engineering or astronomy but Im really really shit at math. So I chose to do International Business since soft sciences like anthropology , or environmental science (which I fucking love by the way) have limited job opportunities. whats your opinion on this , did I do good or not?

Are you mentally handicapped? I'm not being facetious.

How many hours a day do you put into math exercises?

If you are of average human intelligence then you could get a Phd in math. It's just a matter of practice.

It's like playing an instrument or drawing, if you never practice you will always suck.

no I think its genetic, my mom sucked at math too and my cousins the same, am better in theoretical subjects

If you're not good at math and/or aren't willing to get better, then there really are no science options for you...

You'll get rich as fuck if you find the right opportunities, but since it's not science and doesn't really give back to the community, I'm gonna say bad.

Go suck Romney's dick, you little cum chugger.

who gives a shit about the community? the community doesn't give a shit about you in the first place until you prove yourself you are worth something

There is essentially no genetic component to mathematical ability. It's just a matter of practice. People who were better at math as kids were just exposed to it more, thought about it more, and ultimately practiced it more. Saying it's genetic is just an excuse for not putting in the work required to get good at it.

Environmental science has tons of job opportunities (depending on where you live/are willing to live, like anything else), but requires more math than you seem to think. At least linear algebra and first two years of calculus.

ok I will start practising math then and maybe Ill change my major on September

Basically everything from the very basics all the way up to what the highest level of the field is working on can be found on the internet. Do something for a career and learn as a hobby not a hard decision.

I expected a whiny backlash about how hard it would be and really it's genetic and and and... but you surprised me. Bravo, OP. I have faith again. Best of luck.
