Well, no, I know which image you are talking about, but this isn't based off that. This was inspired by yours, yes, but the base image was a different one. We agree that medicine is king, though :)

>unbelievable tier
>medicine
what do you mean by this? unbelievable that any robot would ever be stupid enough to pursue medicine?
I have many doctors in my family and none of them are happy. The problem with people who pursue medicine is that they don't know when to stop, it's always constant competition, they never get away from pre-med syndrome. And very few people go into medicine because they actually think medicine is cool, let's be honest. Everyone goes for money, they think it's the easiest, most consistent way to a 200k salary, but it's probably among the stupidest
and then there's the fact that they were pre-meds at one time, the worst people in the world

>>29758876
No other career all but GUARANTEES you a $200K salary. In engineering and computer science, you need to be at the absolute top of your field (I'm talking 99th %ile) to make $200K+ annually, but the dumbest doctors make that ON AVERAGE. Literally, pediatricians, the stupidest and easiest specialty to get into, make over $200,000 per year ON AVERAGE.
What does the average CS nerd make? Less than six figures. Same goes for finance. You need to be the absolute tippy top in those fields to make what a shit tier doctor makes.

I have a friend who majored in computer science, and now he works in IT support. Sort of the opposite of what you're hoping to do. We always call him out when he tells people that he works in CS.
graduated physics fag here with interest in condensed matter physics. any starting point?
I'm studying nursing. Seems easy to get a job and a reliable way to earn a living.
Plan to go part time, save up all of my money and live in my parents house for the rest of my comfy life.
>>29759989
fucking good for you dude. I was always good at art but always thought I couldn't make money at it. Now I got a STEM degree and I can barely make money at it anyway, and it is kind of boring at work. If I could start over from age 12, I think I would just focus on photoshop, graphic designing, painting, et cetera. You can probably freelance eventually. I spent a year at CalArts character animation program too, and many of the people I went to school with got some sweet jobs at big name companies. One girl I know can't draw for shit and her art is not good in my oipnion, but she is one of the people who makes Google Doodles. I think it's because she's a non white woman and politically progressive and you know how they like that aesthetic.
uhh
I also know people at animation studios, tv studios, etc. It's very possible. And they can't even fucking draw. I can draw better than them, but animation is more about writing/ideas (and networking.) One friend who is now a writer was originally an illustration major

>In engineering and computer science, you need to be at the absolute top of your field (I'm talking 99th %ile) to make $200K+ annually, but the dumbest doctors make that ON AVERAGE
that's because the "dumbest doctors" come from a really small pool, most premeds don't make it that far. eng/cs/finance degrees are far less selective
medicine also has lengthy, expensive schooling. opportunity cost is massive for questionable payout
>>29758790

Studying medicine at the moment but it's proving more difficult than I thought, given I've discovered it's for well-adjusted normies and not social outcasts.
Plus I live in a third world backwater country (that also means no trade schools or other career options to make a living) and idk how much longer can I endure living in such a bad place.
>>29761342
Everything is fucking shitty when you are a sad sack of shit.
To be quite honest Im not sure what I "really enjoy" but all I know is that highly stressful situations are when I feel most alive. Otherwise I'm just numb. So in my case I'd do something really fucking hard.

Not sure about your country's standards but in the US I'd say it really doesnt matter what undergrad you do if you're premed. Just get a 3.6 GPA and good MCAT and you should get into at least one non Caribbean med school.
By medicine do you mean youre in medschool now? It is hard but i wouldnt say it is normie work.
>>29760451

>>29761388
It's shit doing engineering around midterm times. 2-3 heavy math related tests in a week can be a killer
>>29761432
I don't think engineering will ever be useless. Especially if you do mechanical, you have so much you can do on your own too, and with how cheap materials are these days designing and prototyping your own product these days is very cheap.
>>29761493

There's more to it than just the difficulty of courses, which itself isn't too bad honestly. The competition is a little amped up because of ivy league but I just wasn't set on becoming an MD.
>>29761490
Well, a big part of it is social skills. Our eye contact and body language are graded in our small group sessions, and there's the whole bedside manner thing. The dean also noted that they keep tabs on whether or not students are loners, and they look unfavorably on students who are not so well integrated with their fellow students.

>>29761567
>>29761567
Not to be an ass but what did you think would happen? In order to be a doctor you need to be able to work as a team in stressful situations and obviously interact with patients and distressed family members. I mean this isnt rocket science.
Any other reasons why you chose medicine ?
>>29758790
I'm studying foreign languages because I'm not smart enough for anything more respectable
>>29761555
Yes please do what is good for you and do not regret going away from MD path. I was only kidding. I am doing MD school now because I worked 8 years in lab diagnostics R&D for shit money and I am so well conditioned to put up with pointless grueling drudgery now that the 8 years of med school is a no brainer and I even welcome the suffering because it means I'm tough and have succeeded at not letting life get under my skin no matter what I put myself through.
>>29761634
Not a good reason. Please do something else or find a reason to study that. You're just going to end up hating yourself more.
>>29761490
Imagine how bad it is that college is free here, so anybody can study medicine (they say the requirements through the years are more difficult, to make up for it and clean up the freeloaders and slackers, but I don't believe it).
I'm not sure the equivalent, I'm in my first year and I have other 5 after it. And after that I can study to be a specialist, which would take 2-4 years more depending on the subject.
>>29761609
I welcome the challenge. I was not the one complaining about normie things. I went to forge myself into a mortal archangel.
>>29761609
No, you're right. I just never even thought my situation would be this. Given when I decided I was going to study medicine I was in Europe and had a decent enough life (not very social but had a close-knit group or friends and we were all going to do the same), but because of life events I had to move here and I haven't been able to connect with anybody yet. Don't know how to start from literally 0.
I perform well under stressful situations and I don't see myself being truly happy doing anything else. But I also want to consider less idealistic options in case I completely fuck up.
>>29761727
As a former premed I heard "I dont know what else I'd do, honestly" all the time. I was really scared because I felt the same at the time. Now, some of you may disagree with me, but I feel like this is RRALLY unhealthy thinking (lol even on r9k, the unhealtiest circlejerk imagined).
Unless you truly feel job security is solely with med, I'd find a moral purpose to be in it. I have family members who are doctors. They didn't do it for the money. They found their purpose amongst the chaos within medcine.
Do not fall for the idea that you will only be "good" if you do medicine. If you're fucking regretful, its better to take the risk of leaving than staying and hating yourself forever.

>Info. Tech
What is that? I got a BsC in informatics and design of information systems and landed a job as a software developer for a big american company. You don't have to be an engineer to develop. Programming is more akin to a trade that you just learn the tools of and then you can use it. Of course, without engineering and mathematics courses you will be more limited in terms of what you can actually develop. Advanced algorithms, machine learning and stuff like that will be out of your scope. But most development isn't very groundbreaking and you will do fine as long as you learn how to code properly. I live in Sweden though, perhaps it is different in other countries but honestly I don't think so.

You're wrong. Won't even talk about chem, because it's a free job in the industry - physicist have plenty of choice in the industry too, and can additionally venture into finance-related jobs and upper management due to high analytical capabilities (same with mathematicians).
With a physics/math degree it's less about what you learned than about how you finished a degree in the most rigorous field, something that would be close to impossible with a low IQ.

also to everyone ITT that didn't do as well as they wanted don't give up, the self-awareness that is shown on /r9k/ already puts you ahead of the vast majority of normies at college.

Qualified Software Engineer here.
I would say it's God like, great job prospects, well above average income and you don't break your back outside.
I was having trouble deciding between mathematics or statistics. I like algebra but also probability. I got a lower grade in stats, but i feel like it has better job prospects.
Which is more likely to work for nasa? Which is more likely to make money?
Which is more in demand?
What does a math major even do for work?
Any and all information is fucking greatly appreciated
Unbelievable Tier reporting in.

Law, international relations, and I've learnt at university and taught myself about 4 languages.
I don't want to be a lawyer tho, my passion is in foreign policy and intelligence, but since I doubt I'll get jobs in those fields I'm probably going to move to England (am Australian) to work for my cousin's solicitor firm since its a piece of piss for Australian lawyers to go to England.
>>29758790
Wow I'm surprised my field even made the chart.
>>29759775
Of all the trade schools in the world you just assumed that anon was referring to that particular school?
>>29763047
Because art can be valuable for marketing and graphic design. Philosophy is garbage unless you have a revolutionary idea and a university is not really an environment to inspire creative thinking.
>>29764206
Ah alright. So the chart ranking is based solely on income potential? But then medicine still shouldn't be at the top. So that does not make sense either. Isn't philosophy reasonably popular among students who major in law? I still think it can be a useful degree if you get a dual degree or something. Art seems kys tier though.
>>29758790
>Nursing
>Good tier
Fuck you, I'm going to be starting that this year.
Starting a 9 week/3 day course for business finance next week.
Maybe then I can get a job hahaha..
I'm double majoring in English (not sure what concentration yet) and journalism with a concentration in written journalism
Plan is to get some internships/jobs as a journalist because Atlanta is a big journalism hub, spend my spare time writing a novel, and eventually transition into full-time novelist if that pans out

All of the Professional degrees in healthcare are ass tbqh.
>MD/DO
Spend all your life in school, come out to a miserable job that works you to death, spend your massive bloated salary exclusively on your massive bloated student loans and never enjoy it.
>PharmD
Literally MD-lite in pretty much every way. Still a long and very hard degree but not as long, hard or expensive as MD. You thought you were ahead of the curve when you switched from pre-med to pre-pharm. A bit more manageable but in return for this you also get to live through all the horrors of retail and patients and prescribers all treat you like shit and district managers breathe down your neck as though you were a lowly cashier.
>DMD/DDS
Slightly better money than the PharmD, and easier school. I bet you thought you were the smartest fucker in the world when you switched from pre-pharm to dental. Then you realized that the unemployment rate for dentists is literally 30% and now you know why dentists have the highest suicide rate of all professions. I hope you made a good friend in dental school to open up a practice together with because you're screwed otherwise. BTW reimbursement from health plans has been swirling in the shitter for the last few years just like for pharm and med. Enjoy.
>DPT
Bending limbs and being called 'doctor' is awesome! Until you realize that you're entirely at the whim of a physician's referral to get patients and that most insurances won't reimburse physical therapy for more than about 3 months at a time. Enjoy sucking physician dick so that you're allowed to earn a living.
>NP
All the responsibility, liability and massive workload of a physician, but youre still just a nurse. LMAOing at ur life.
>PA
Pretty legit actually because you get to do doctor-stuff while being stuck to the doctor's tit at all times as far as liability goes. Too bad the competition is through the roof these days because everyone wants to be a PA.
Translation studies.
Am I fucked?
>agriculture in good tier
Fucking jej
it's not fair, I'm reasonably clever but I was born with gifts for the creative, writing and English side of life rather than STEM subjects will my life be shit just because I was born with very limited talent in STEM areas?
>>29758790
I graduated with accounting. I had no idea what to major in after high school, dad recommended accounting. Turns out it was perfect for an autist.
Fuck these threads man. I used to obsess over this shit when I was in University.
Just get a degree in something you are good in, get a job and go from there. If you want to be an Engineer, study that, if not dont fucking worry about it. There are 100000000 different jobs that arent engineering or whatever.
>>29764527
>jus get jerb!
>jus firm shake manager's hand!
>jus bee ur self
Herein lies the problem. You don't just get a job these days unless your connections are good so your school plus your degree are going to define most of your life unless you end up in a field outside your major in which case you wasted your money and time on worthless paper.
>>29764600
Shove it up your ass man, that's not true at all. Maybe in America where everyone is fucking retarded.
>>29758876
I'm going into medicine because I think it's cool...
I get to do gross science stuff for a living, stay in university for ages (I was that kid who enjoyed school back in the day, and my parents' desire to follow asian traditions means that they're willing to support me financially while I'm studying), and people will start to like me because I save lives.
>>29760673
I posted my work on redpilled streaming website and someone wanted me to do a commission for them.
Probably won't get that chance again desu.
>>29758790
Computer Science.
I have no idea if I want to do it or not. I don't really think I want to but I don't know what else I should do.
I'm about to go into my second year so I have the opportunity to change if I want. I just don't know what to.
Anyone here studying abroad?
I plan on applying in the UK for 2017 after I'm done with my mandatory military draft but being away from home for 5 years is a scary thought

there's plenty of great humanities degree, not gonna name them because I don't want you guys to swarm in
Is being a doctor in US so great?
In my country, med schools are hard and the bad thing is, they don't get paid well. They have really shitty salaries in their early years, I can get almost the same salary almost anywhere with bachelor degree. Later on it can get better with them but not much, they often just leave the country because their salary is a joke, so other doctors must work over-time and it gets worse and worse. Some may have a private practice but they don't get to do anything else than work. So they have some money but can't spend it. It's shitty in the middle Europe here. So no unbelievable tier. It's pharmacy/IT here. But you must be also lucky.
>>29758790
have masters in biochem
unemployable due to DUI
never make a mistake anon
not one.
>>29765982
You should go to /ic/. I've been on that board for 2 years and my art has improved significantly.
If you're willing to occassionally pander to current trends like Overwatch and Steven Universe, and maybe willing to do porn of both, you will come out of it with a LOT of money provided you post on multiple sites like DeviantArt, Reddit, R34 sites and the chans.
I personally haven't done any of the above simply because of the lack of willpower to bother with such uninspired art that people like to gobble up, and I focus more on my passion and quality of drawing.
>>29766369
You can't work in labs because of DUI? o_o that's shitty with biochemistry. How long?
>>29758790
>anthropology is meh tier
>sociology is Shit tier
Anthropology major here. You realize both majors are virtually the same right? They're taught by the same professors and they're often lumped into one degree in third tier schools.
The only difference is sociology focuses on our society while anthropology focuses on all human societies.

I got my masters 3 years ago, my dui 4, and ive been working in carpentry for 2 years.
>>29766535
Because it's smaller
>>29766543
That sucks, man. Your only hope is to fuck everything and make your own bussiness.
>>29766616
why would he? carpentry is god-tier
>>29761901
No you're fine. There are lots of opportunities for chem engineers but you might need to travel far, especially if you didn't get over a 3.5 gpa with some business experience and even then you still might need to travel.
there are some pretty comfy jobs and a lot of old people are currently retiring.
Changed my mind about college because people are unhelpful assholes
>>29766616
Don't have much entrepreneurship, plus most of the equipment I was trained on costs 10s of thousands of dollars
>>29766659
Its not bad, if I hone my finish work it could be pretty cash, framing is garbage at my age though. Plus no one respects you, I've worked at physicians houses that act like they can do the job better than me. Why the fuck did you hire someone if you just want to do it?

>>29766762
What country though cuz if it's in Africa or turkey or something i don't think Its worth
>>29766837
Turkey but I'm Turkish so no problemo, better than being a wagecuck in a comoany or doing shitty min wage jobs. I earn more than half of the country rn
Lol i'm a med student and we love to make fun of engineers
We have a mech engie that regulates some of the MRI machines and we poke fun at him all the time. everyone else that's not a med student/doctor thinks he's some shit tier technician and not an engineer. He got so pissed when one of our doctors asked him to get him a coffee

>>29766379
/ic/ is one of the shittest boards I've been to.
Nobody helps you there, everybody is a prick (inb4 4chan) and will give you shit advice whilst not posting any of their own work.
Oh and unless you are an old master they won't like you. Doesn't matter if you're professional or not. I fucking hate that board.
Who /Pharmaceutical Sciences/ here?
>>29766543
Out of curiosity did you tell your interviews about the dun before hand or did you let them find out on their own?
Because most employers will overlook drug and alcohol charges if you're upfront about it. Hell if you tell a little sob story about how that dui was your wake-up call and you've been sober ever since HR will eat that Shit up.
>>29767260
not prepharm but premed
i love all my pharm friends though <3
it's all the same shit anyway with similar prereqs, diff emphasis (except when getting into grad school) - the buildup is almost the same.
have you taken the PCAT yet?
>>29767301
No I didn't, maybe I should have
Im pretty hopeless about getting a job 4 years out of a degree though
>>29758790
So what is the difference between computer engineering and computer science
>>29767358
Nah I'm on the Phd side, not the pharmd side. Want to work for big pharm instead of a pharmacy
>>29759144
Whatever interests you more.
Personally, I'd go for biochem but it's your choice.
Flip a coin if it's that hard
>>29764600
>mfw I've done this successfully several times
Here's the catch though, the only jobs where this works are shit jobs. We're talking manual labor, manufacturing, trades, and small businesses where the owner micromanage everything.
We're talking low pay, no benefits, often physically demanding jobs. Which is what all the college educated snobs stick their nose up at. But the thing with these jobs is
1. The whole ' firm handshake / self confidence ' crap actually works
2. You might actually learn something working there (I got my start in sales at a car wash)
3. They look better on your resume than Target and Starbucks
>>29758790
I'm gonna either major in business or finance but I'm just trying to be a pilot. I need a 4 year degree first before I start anyway. So where's pilot on this thing?

You'd fall under Aviation
Holy shit... Idek how I didn't even see it.
Why is it meh tier?
Pilots make good money and travel the world. I'm lost. Thanks by the way.

should i just end it all lads

In the US there are way too many pilots, and the education costs a fortune. If youre elsewhere you might be better off.
