<< If you consider calculus "no real math", then I must bow to your superior mental abilities. 😱 >>



I was just kidding around. We always poke fun at the CS majors b/c they don't have to take as much math as we do.
 
Mechanical Engineering. Its about as hard as it gets but I don't see myself doing anything else.

I kinda freak myself out sometimes when somehow i get through nasty problems with ease, but then a nastier problem comes along to put me back where I belong, oh boy it never ends.
 
B.A. History and Spanish (Double Major), Texas A&M University.
J.D., University of Houston (in less than 2 weeks).

Not real happy with my undergrad major...

Avoid liberal arts at all costs...
 
<--- EE, somewhat happy with it. Probably will not get out of here for another 50 years, but in a way thats ok, I can retire then.
 
architecture/architorture. first 1.5 years was a blast... then I woke up and realized it was all bullshit...
all this work for what?

currently finishing my third year, two more years in the hell hole...
 
Business Administration with a Specialization in Global Business and a minor in Econ.

Im still in school, so i havent used it yet. Nice and easy though...
 
Doubling in English and Communications. I find comm really interesting, English still but less so. Partly because comm is much easier than English for me, and less time consuming. I really don't think I'd want to switch, although there are other areas like psych and linguistics that I find interesting.
 
My degrees technically say Bachelor's of Business Administration and Associates in Business Management.

My major and minor, though, were Accounting (hence my screen name) and Hotel/Restaurant Management.

Currently, I am working on my Bachelor's in Computer Science.

***edit*** Accounting is boring, Good money, but boring; haven't applied the Hotel/Restaurant Management yet. ***end edit***
 
majoring in mechanical engineering w/ a minor in japanese at Georgia Tech..
then i plan on getting an MBA somewhere....

so far i love mechanical engineering and japanese...
 
Computer Science with my applications emphasis area (9 credit hours of a minor) soon to be in art. So far, I'm happy enough with what all we're doing and what I'm learning. It's hard, but it's what I like, so I've stuck with it.
 
After 2 years of formal post secondary school education I spurned the establishment and have done as well, or better, than most college grads. I have had the freedom of not being constrained by the teachings of people who could never make it in the real world.
 
Computer Science - love it, except the debugging part :|



<< Math? There's no real math in computer science. >>



I'm not sure about your school, but I'm at UT Austin and if you do the Bachelor of Science in CS like I am, then you take enough math to automatically receive a minor...
 
I majored in psychobiology. It was an interesting major and it prepared me for grad school.
