As a university fag, I can confirm that OP is right.

If you want intellectual rewardment, pure maths. If you want big money, stats maths.

Remember when people said topology and number theory wouldn't have real world applications? :^)

What?

I am a math major OP. I hate this shit. I won't be able to do anything after college either so I am trying to become an actuary.

Why the hell should anyone switch into this major? Seriously.

Seriously though why should anyone do this major?

Differential topology is hard as fuck. I am not getting anything close to the kind of GPA I would get with literally any other major, even engineering because I've fucked myself over with graduate math classes and there's no turning back now.

What's the point?
Yeah I'll graduate, but my GPA won't be that good and yet I'm doing nothing but studying 24/7.

Oxbridge students aren't nearly as hard worked as they like to pretend. They are literally nannied through their studies by college tutors, and spend all their free time getting pissed.

Studying actuarial maths here. The workload isn't that heavy so as long as you're intelligent enough to comprehend the maths, you should get along fine and we don't get much assignments either. It's a high paying job too once you graduate.

Personally I'm planning to become a NEET upon graduation though because free time means more to me than money but if you want to be a wagekek then it's literally one of the best jobs out there as long as you at least tolerate high level maths (personally I like it) so I can see why maths is recommended over something like engineering which is a lot more work for worse prospects.

yup i'm finishing my freshman year in biochemistry and i'm switching to a comp sci major/math minor
>don't want to end up being a labrat my whole life

i'm feeling pretty good now that i know i can go into the tech industry, business, or even something like chemistry in their it department

What am i supposed to do with a degree in mathematics?
>>
Nah I was always horrid in the maths. When I started out in a community college my plan was a degree in English. about half-way through the first year there I grew an interest in the Russian language and started studying it on my free time. Eventually I became reasonably fluent and decided to pursue my studies in that. Problem was though that my CC didn't offer Russian so I had to go to another CC that had it for my requirements. Now, i'm about to graduate next semester and opportunities are really looking hopeful. Linguistics is also a good degree. But mostly every degree is useless without networking. My brother majored in computer science and he's been out of work for 3 years now.
