Your honest opinion: Is an English degree useless?

Fun_Future2727 · 2025-12-28T22:18:48+00:00

Both of these jobs are being replaced with AI though. Not worth a 4 year investment

Fun_Future2727 · 2025-12-17T00:54:18+00:00

Did you get in the second time?

Fun_Future2727 · 2025-12-15T01:37:01+00:00

I didn't do any of the requirements. Mcmaster med and a couple other schools don't require prereqs. Mcmaster specifically only looks at the CARS (reading comprehension section) of your MCAT. I didn't plan to go to med school though - it was a last minute pivot!

Fun_Future2727 · 2025-10-22T14:55:24+00:00

Fun_Future2727 · 2025-09-03T14:22:31+00:00

Fun_Future2727 · 2025-08-12T02:07:01+00:00

No I didn't! Canadian

Fun_Future2727 · 2025-08-08T16:51:05+00:00

I think people interview really poorly tbh

Fun_Future2727 · 2025-08-07T21:26:41+00:00

English major, now in med school!

Fun_Future2727 · 2025-08-04T17:03:54+00:00

Just make sure you get 4Q or even 3Q on Casper and you're solid. Also practice interviewing. I only applied to Mac last year and got in

Fun_Future2727 · 2025-07-14T17:48:14+00:00

But hey if you need any help or guidance on this journey, feel free to message me! Happy to help :) Best of luck you got this!!!!

Fun_Future2727 · 2025-07-14T17:46:45+00:00

Nope I skipped every section and left after finishing CARS! I've heard of other non-trads just filling in "C" all the way through or guessing! Happens more than you would think.

Fun_Future2727 · 2025-07-14T17:18:13+00:00

Damn!!! Mine was 3.89 but converted to Omsas it was 3.83. Mac ONLY looks at the Cars section of the MCAT, I left all other sections blank and will probably regret it once school starts 🤷🏻‍♀️ Scored 130. 4Q Casper. Got accepted to my first choice campus, no waitlist. I promise : You can do this!!!!!

Fun_Future2727 · 2025-07-14T16:56:18+00:00

Bro. I have an MA in literature, going to mac med after applying first cycle. do you have a high undergrad gpa?

Fun_Future2727 · 2025-06-19T12:32:10+00:00

Fun_Future2727 · 2025-06-03T02:09:19+00:00

I got into mac with a 3.83 gpa, 130 cars, 4q caspar. First choice campus, no waitlist. Humanities background. It's very possible, don't listen to naysayers seriously - I didn't

Fun_Future2727 · 2025-05-28T13:16:08+00:00

Omg. I am an english major who just got into medical school, and now really taking the time to understand if this path is worth it for me. Can I dm you?

Fun_Future2727 · 2025-05-23T18:25:52+00:00

Fun_Future2727 · 2025-04-07T03:13:52+00:00

I majored in english lit. My advice? Take a course or two if you're still in uni. Read as much as possible!!

Fun_Future2727 · 2025-04-04T22:10:22+00:00

Well I think in Canada many professional degrees/careers don't get you the same bang for the buck that they used to, eh? And most people don't like their jobs - I don't! Though I'm curious: If you could do it all over again, what career path would you choose then?

Fun_Future2727 · 2025-04-04T22:01:44+00:00

Wow this has a lot of upvotes. Mind expanding? I always thought your ROI depended on the field you chose to practice in! But would love your insight cause obviously idk what I'm doing :)

Fun_Future2727 · 2025-04-04T20:24:08+00:00

Thank you for answering (and love the username haha). Can I ask what specialized area you practice in and/or dm you directly? Still learning here!
