compsci. I like it alot, I just wish moids were less insufferable, you can make the slightest correction to what they say and you can feel their blood boiling. don't blame any women for staying out of it I wouldn't have done it if computers weren't my obsession since childhood.

I kinda want to do computational linguistics as a second major cause my current field is somewhat related but doesn't fully delve into it(it's more related to speech than language).

honestly for a lot of STEM the issue is dealing with men than the major itself imo.

premed bio major here. didn't get accepted into medical school because most schools in my country only let women in who are married to current students/graduated alumni. i would not do it again, but if i had to do it over at 18 i would probably pick a bullshit major, look pretty and networkmaxx.

Did a liberal arts major, pivoted to med school impulsively last second. Graduating soon, hate medicine, thinking about pivoting to business.

if they let you into medical school you can open a successful business easily.

Does veterinary counts as stem? I am satisfied with my uni, pretty interesting stuff.
I tried working as vet technician in clinic, got disappointed because it is working with dumb ass owners, not animals. I will work at big industrial farm this summer. I have big hopes for it, my friend already worked there and said it was interesting. Also, surprisingly farm vets aren't as low paid as I thought.

Agricultural Science. I worked in a soils lab for 2 years before I realised that, unless I went to work for an agricorp that's dooming the entire planet, I'd end up living in an arid country town for the rest of my career, achieving basically nothing, then go back home to teach at a shitty university or, God forbid, a high school, until I retired poor and alone. Thankfully, I accidentally befriended a guy in uni who inherited a fairly large timber and forest product agribusiness around that time and was just given a job through sheer nepotism because he needed someone trustworthy and he knew I always handed in lost items and money we found. That's literally it. I suddenly had a senior position that paid 80% higher than industry standard and let me live in a cottage with satellite internet, at the edge of a rainforest with a worksite I could walk to each morning. That only lasted 3 years, sadly, as I made the classic blunder of falling for my new boss and wound up pregnant in an industry where it's illegal to work while pregnant. I had to give up my cottage and my job in favour of consultancy for local government and corporate construction. Honestly, I don't think I would have done anything differently. I'm not a genius and I was never going to revolutionise any field I studied, but this one let me live like a queen for a few years and I ended up with a family because of it.

how would you networkmaxx and look pretty?
i'm debating on picking compsci(college) or a meme degree (uni)
any advice

hit the gym, do makeup, participate in all extracurriculars, suck up to professors so they will write letters of recommendation and befriend students who have wealthy connections. universities offer more opportunity for networking so go with that instead.

thank u

Should I do compsci or it as a second major? I have an associates already but I’m not sure if I’m prepared for all the math and moids in cs

>>266693
It does. It's a form of hard science, although I guess I shouldn't be exclusive to soft sciences here. Psych majors welcome!

>>266665
Compsci here as well, I suppose I relate to you in that aspect but I kinda isolate myself from people in general.

>>266738
You are going to have to deal with moids in most STEM fields. The degree to which compsci is maths heavy really depends on which uni you go to (mine has been overwhelmingly just mathematics and theory, which I personally don't mind too much).

>>266729
This feels sleezy and dishonest, does the high school popularity contest ever end, why can't I just study and research something and people automatically realize the value of my work and give me credit like honest human beings.

They are extremely insufferable. I felt and endured their superioty complex towards women. A lot of talented and smart girls get pushed out of interesting fields because some scrotes feel extremely entitled to said positions and will give you a hard time on purpose just because you are a woman. Men say women are snakes but I say men way worse because they will do anything to get their way in life. Plus are mentally unstable asf.

Did 2 years of engineering and then dropped out. I had no one to talk to. Group assignments were an absolute torture, everyone had (male) friends but me so I was doing all stuff on my own
Now I’m shutin neet who will off herself one of these days

:O

but dont do that ok?

I went through it, was rough. The professors have too much power and everyone was cheating. But at least i can sort of get a better job with slightly higher pay.

I was going to go into robotics engineering but my dad talked me out of it. But then he tried to kill me three months later so I don't think his intentions were good.

I did EE. My gender balance wasn't too bad, I did the electronic/electrical specialisation so there was only 11 people in the class and I was one of three girls. And it was kind of too small a group for there to be cliques so it was actually a nice dynamic, I never had moid problems, they were just kind of normal nice fellas, standoffish and shy but harmless. I only had problems with this one guy but they weren't moid problems, he had problems with everyone.
I was horribly depressed for my last couple of years which effected my study habits so I graduated with a shit degree and did nothing with it for the last couple of years, and now my confidence is shot so I don't know if I can do anything with it any more.
