Default Re: Pick My Major and 2nd Semester Classes for Me!!! (OT)

I did a Maths Degree (UK equiv of Major i think) for 3 years. Boring as hell. It might open more doors than a Philosophy degree would, that is if you fancy getting into Accountancy or something equally as mind-numbing.

If I had my time again i don't know what i would study, but it wouldn't be Maths. High school Maths i found interesting but degree level?? The material was so irrelevant to anything at all that it was torturous.

If you choose to take Maths, you may find it so boring that you drop out or get a low grade as you spend all your study time playing poker [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]. A common problem with Maths students (in my experience) was a complete disinterest in the course content leading to a lack of motivation. Sounds like you actually find Philosophy interesting though, so without knowing anything else about you I would point you in that direction. Of course this depends if you would rather be happy or rich, but that's a different topic entirely........
