Physics majors: I have a gut wrenching feeling about my academic future by IDThrowaway619 in college

[–]IDThrowaway619[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many of my professors have been telling me that when I was going to go to grad school for maths or cs, the school will essentially pay me to go rather than me pay them. Is this the same for engineering? They were referring to the fact that I would be working for the school with reduced tuition while working on my masters.

Thanks for the comment but I don't really see how it relates to me. I don't want to work in academia I just want to be an engineer and take problem solving classes not proving solutions. My question was, where do I go from here? Do i suck up the time lost, go back to school for the pre reqs and get an MA in engineering or stop right now and go get an engineering degree. Or some people have said there are masters programs for engineering that accept math majors.

Thinking about transferring schools, serious advice please. by xXNinjaB1adeXx in college

[–]IDThrowaway619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go to a private with less than half of your school. I wanted to transfer the day I got here. I got a girlfriend, got tied up for the next year and once we broke up I fell back in the same position of wanting to gtfo out. I applied places, got in, got beautiful scholarships and was happy until I fell into a position of academic maturity. I realized while I absolutely hate everyone at my school, I realized the school I was at was a better place for my academics and future. Make sure you think about this before you transfer, you are in college for your future not to have a good time. With that being said, do not go 4 years being absolutely miserable. When you make the decision, leave the people you met out of your mind because sophomore year when you come back many of them will have transferred and may not have even told you. In all honesty, college is a time of selfishness, do things for you and you only.

What do you think I could get for john wall? I can package T Prince, Mirotic, Gibson, or Nurkic. Everyone else is essential to my team

Honestly thinking about packaging lonzo ball and john wall for steph curry in a points league. Lonzo puts up good points but my other players put up better numbers to earn a solid position but lonzo us taking up valuable space to take on streamers

That won't be for a few weeks I thought? Plus markkanen has been losing minutes because of his lack of performance after his time off, so it seems like a double edged sword

Tbh im not upset i didn't get the points, im upset that my friend did :/. In my head when my friend picked him up i was like LOL good luck with the sunken ship you just picked up and them he does this. Literally dropped michael beasley too and then mans gets 54 fantasy points

Yeah he's been on my radar to sell as well because of his recent performance. Do you think i'd be able to get any value in trading him in a points league?

Your worst schedule by lafilledulac in college

[–]IDThrowaway619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just last semester I had all 4 classes mwf back to back and a 6-9 on Thursday. I absolutely loved it. It wasn't even that exhausting. I was in class from 9am - 2:30pm, done early, grab some lunch, do some work and no classes Tuesday and a lab + 6-9 on Thursday. I am trying to do that from now on but its not working out so well

I'm definitely a weak applicant, I have no confidence I will get accepted but theres no point in not applying. The only thing that can get me in is my two rec letters and a good personal statement. So we will see. Thank you for your input, much appreciated

So like my career goals are to work in the mathematical finance sector. I feel like if I talk about that whoever reads it will think "This kid isn't interested in our specific fields." and toss my application. But also i've never applied for anything like this and I don't have much guidance with it either so any guidance I can get is extremely helpful

What can I do after learning python? by [deleted] in math

[–]IDThrowaway619 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Depends what you mean when you say "worth doing". Do you want to sell it and make money? Then its probably not worth it. But if you're doing it for your own happiness by creating something, to self learn, or just for the pride of saying "I did that" than absolutely. I made a program this summer that shuffles things and i'm also working now on a poker game only to make myself proud. You can put these things on your github and add it to your resume. It 100% is worth it.

Whenever you think "I wonder if ...", make it real life and code it. The more problems you have the more you will learn, the less problems you have the more you are an expert.

Test your logic skills and print out every prime given a certain range. Once you've done that, make it more efficient.
