If you are at a world-class university like Cambridge for 2 years, and you are undecided, then you don't deserve to be there, piece of shit. Your classmates are the next generation of expert scientists and engineers, and you fuck up the place, just like that - SNAP.

At least find out what you're talking about.

Cambridge specifically allows you to not decide until later on. In fact, during the first year you can't only do a single science subject. With many subjects like Materials, you also can't only focus on them until third year. If you knew exactly what you wanted going in then there are other places that allow for that.

Initially I wanted to do ChemE but I figured I might wanna do Physics. Then I did materials during my first year and liked it. Cambridge is one of the few places that allows for, and even encourages this sort of stuff, because it's pretty common with kids who are good at everything. It's actually the main reason I applied to Cambridge.

But you can cry your heart out for all I care. You're the one that's venting your rage on a vietnamese comic board.

You STICK to ONE MAJOR at Cambridge, since it is tradition. That's from day one! Not year two! You are insulting your classmates, and your professors, and most importantly, the president of the university. I am NOT angry, I am disgusted by you. Simple, what other language should I express my feelings? You are an insult to everything that Cambridge stands for, SO FUCK YOURSELF

IT IS NOT TRADITION TO DO THAT!! You have NEVER been to England, much less Cambridge. You have no idea what Cambridge is all about. Honor, pride, scholarship, YOU DON'T SWITCH HALFWAY.

You know what I read when I am bored? DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION TEXTBOOKS, under four or less hours, WHAT DO YOU DO? I AM AN EXPERT. You are not Cambridge quality, or an expert. YOU MAKE CAMBRIDGE LOOKK BAD. Fuck you, I have half a nerve to e-mail your physics department to reprimand you. YOU ARE NOT A SCHOLAR. IF I COULD, I WOULD RIP YOUR DEGREE APART AND THROW IT IN THE RECYCLING BIN. Keep green! You do not deserve to be in Cambridge, let SMART people take your position. You have slapped your classmates in the FACE, you have talked shit in your professor FACE, and you make your universities president look like a clown.

Despite that fact that Harvard is ranked number one on many college scales, the truth is, is not much a university than more a club for rich people -- and MIT is where the future tools and worker bees of those rich people go to get trained to be tools.

Second year, only complaint is that it's a "learn-by-doing" school...we have a GREAT reputation in California (one of the best engineering programs by how many graduates get employed), but I really like the theoretical side of engineering too, so I feel like I'm missing out a bit.

But then again, I could be going to UCSB

actually not false if you read what I said!!! the top 20 places will all give you the same undergraduate education and it's the other things that give you better job opportunities (class size so more access to research, your ability to go above and beyond)

if someone gets a job after going to harvard it's not because they went to harvard but because the type of student to go there is typically the one to go above and beyond and work hard to get a good job right after

We have a facility on campus at UCSC called "Science Hill" where every single STEM class is held, along with Sci/Eng Research library. One day last quarter, a group of humanities protesters held a barricade in front of the main entrance to the hill and library, demanding to see student IDs before letting anyone pass. A number of students insisted that they didn't have to admit their identity to a bunch of strangers in order to to get to class. I feel that the choice of location for protest was extremely unwise. The STEM crowd, who they were trying to get on their side, just ended up extremely pissed off. Security in the area was higher for the rest of the week.

No one cared about their message and they just pissed off the group they wanted to appeal to. I swear, University has turned me economically liberal and socially conservative. It is the strangest combination.

What do you do for a living, is it a well paid job?
You got a masters or just an undergrad? In the area of biology do you think a masters degree is important to having a decent job?
Excuse my English, and I'm new to this. I'm on my last year before college

What's the male to female ratio like at that school? I'd imagine it's a boys club.

Yeah. It's not like I'm struggling now. Got a decent paying job in IT. I'm just upset that I didn't fully realize my interests until it was way too late.

36% female. but tbh, alot of the guys here are undateable spergs or beta's who are too scared of women, and the athletes don't really go after the nerd girls.

i live in downtown denver so the ratio doesn't really effect me.

I start at Pennsylvania State University - University Park( the main campus with like 100,000 people) this spring.

I was considering Mechanical Engineering but I'm not sure anymore.

i got a full ride scholarship offer from them and UCSC. i chose UCSC because i like the campus more and i know a lot of people here.

regardless of how i complain about the liberals, i actually like that they are there. i think its actually very funny, even though it is a hassle.
