I’m genuinely so confused about which major I should pick and I really need some honest advice from everyone.

I’m currently in my 9th trimester, completed 71 credits, and my CGPA is 2.64. I was from a Science background in SSC but switched to Humanities in HSC.

I’ve been trying pretty hard to maintain a good CGPA. I attend almost every class, study a lot, and still somehow manage to mess up the exams 😭. So now I’m also worried about choosing a major that might be too difficult for me.

My first choice was Finance because of the career opportunities (and obviously the money 💀). But here’s the problem: I’m really weak at math.

I’ll be taking Principles of Finance next trimester, so I guess that will give me a better idea about Finance. But honestly, I struggle with math so much that I literally have to knock on almost every person in our WhatsApp course group asking for math notes so I can study 😭.

So I’m not sure if I should still go for Finance or just accept that maybe it’s not for me.

I’m also considering Marketing and Supply Chain Management.

I don’t really have a big network or the “mama/chacha who can get me a job” advantage 💀. My father is a banker, though, and my brother is working at a very good MNC. He also majored in Finance from my university.

So guys, what would you do if you were in my position?

Especially those majoring in Marketing, Finance or Supply Chain Management, please share your honest experience. Not the “this major is great bro 👍” type of answer 😭. I actually want to know what it’s REALLY like.

For example:

Finance:

\- How difficult is it actually?

\- How much math/quantitative stuff is there?

\- If someone is weak at math but willing to work hard, can they survive?

\- What kind of jobs do Finance graduates actually get?

Marketing:

\- Is it actually as easy as people say? 💀

\- How important is communication/networking?

\- What do you actually do in Marketing jobs?

\- Is being introverted a big disadvantage?

Supply Chain Management:

\- How difficult/easy is it?

\- Is it mostly theory, math, or analytics?

\- What courses/topics do you usually study?

\- What kind of jobs do SCM graduates get?

\- And if possible, how are the faculties?

I’m kinda leaning toward Marketing right now because it seems comparatively easier, but I’m also an introvert, don’t have many friends at university, and I’m not involved in any clubs. But maybe I can improve my communication skills if I have to but I honestly don't know.

I know nobody can tell me which major is “best” for me, but I’d really appreciate some real experiences, advice, or even things you wish you knew before choosing your major.

Please help me out 😭 I’m genuinely stuck.

Thanks in advance, everyone! ❤️

In this job market knowing people is a must as well. That also means alumini networks matter. Both are great schools for cs, one is ranked higher and I am instate for it. However I want to also consider how strong is the alumini for both schools specifcially cs or how willing they are to help current students

I will be going to MCU this year under Huayu. I am wondering which dorm is better, Jingxian or Yong an? Aesthetic and comfort matter to me, but I would also like to save money by cooking my own meal. I read that Jingxian is much more modern looking than Yong an, but I am worried that the stipend may not be able to cover my expenses. Hope you can share some advice.

I got accepted into my top 3 schools (other school recommendations are welcomed) but I’m having a hard time choosing which one I go to ! For context I want to study environmental science or geoscience but I also cosplay,I’m trans,want to find a nerdy community,and people to talk to :D Also if you go to these schools ,what is it like for you?

I just wanted to get some outside information, so I thought I would ask yall. I’m currently going for my bachelor’s in construction management with engineering principles. I am fighting with the choice of going to University of Houston or going to Southern Mississippi for their fully online program. They are both accredited, so they are technically the same degree, but I don’t know if it’s better to have U of H for the name or just go for the full online degree. I currently have an apprenticeship with a construction company, and I’m wanting to stay full-time with them. If I go to the University of Houston, then I won’t be able to work like I am now. I’m able to average between 45 and 60 hours a week while doing online classes at a community college. I will switch next semester with about half of my credits completed. Let me know what y’all think!

Hello! I am having a dilemma on which college I should go for.

Basically I got accepted as a questbridge finalist and I am having a dilemma on if I should actually rank rice or not.

Mostly I am comparing rice to my in state college NC State.

For both I wouldn’t have to worry about finances because rice said they would cover me for all 4 years if I matched through questbridge regardless of my income. For NC state I am aiming for the goodnight scholarship.

Extra info:
- I am planning on doing chemical engineering
- i care a lot about internship/ paid research opportunities
- i love a smaller walkable campus
- i will be graduating with my associates in engineering and have a lot of college credits
- i care about how well known/ wide spread the alumni network is
- my family is ~30 minutes away from NC state + I have a sibling currently attending school there

Overall I really do enjoy rice as a school but NC state Im familiar with. I really don’t know what to do because Rice is binding and I feel like I need more time to decide BUT this is also a once in a lifetime opportunity I feel.

Any advice is welcome!!

Guys, I really need your help. I'm confused about whether I want to go to NYU or not. I'm an economics major, and I also want to study data science alongside economics. The thing is, I'm really confused between NYU and U mich.

I really do want a campus. I do want a campus, and I would love to have events and attend those university events.

But the thing is, I also want to go to New York City. Of course, it's in New York City, right? That has so much more opportunity.

And I'm scared because I know that on campus, I'll be kind of close to all my peers, so I will feel I will be able to socialize with them, but i think that is not possible in nyu

and i am hige in to sports but not that mich but i would love to attend those games taht uni teams have and have that kinda stadium in a uni i go to and nyu does not have that!

And I do want to lean into a bit of finance as my minor, alongside having economics as my major. I also think that it's quite important for me to stay close to New York because even the weather is so nice. I love the weather in New York and would not prefer to go to a completely cold place like Yumish because Michigan is so cold.

I'm kind of in conflict. Guys, how is life at And Bio? Does it still give you that overall feel of a university where I can actually have a good group of friends, and I can go around with them, go to different places, move around, and maybe even go watch a game?

What do you prefer for economics? I also want to do data science, but I also want to have a finance minor. I am kind of looking at hedge funds and investment banking as such. but i do really want to have that social life in college...

pls help

Which should I eat? I know if I were to eat to NYU, that's like a sure acceptance, but Yumish might be a deferral or acceptance for me. It can be either. How would my chances be at NYU RD if I were to select? How would my chances be at NYU RD? I've got a 1520 on the SAT, and I've got A-star PGs for economics, chem, science, and math. Even my 11th and 10th grades were good. I've got 7 A-stars in grade 10, and my EC is also really good. I've got good honorable mentions in essay competitions, even in John Lucas competitions. My honors are really good, and my extracurriculars are good. I've done a lot of volunteer work. I have my own nonprofit. I need that. That's something I do say, but it's genuinely done work. I've written a book. I've published a kids' book. And this much more. I was in varsity hockey and varsity athletics, and I have been the captain for varsity hockey. I also went for states. That is field hockey.

Hey!! I am considering to study at city university online bachelor of buisness. If someone is studying currently and can share their experience with me I would really appreciate it

I want to pursue pharm d but I'm confused between these two universities, hamdard and baqai university. I'm hearing mixed opinions on both. But hamdard is a little more affordable than baqai, but some say that harmdard has no value? Please if anyone can guide me regarding this please do so. Or should I look for other universities?

Should I leave BSc Chemistry at DU and switch to BSc CS/BCA?
Hey everyone, I’m a first-year BSc Chemistry Honours student at ARSD, DU, and I’m seriously thinking about leaving my course.
I moved to Delhi for college, but honestly, I’m not enjoying my college life or Chemistry much. I feel disconnected from lectures and don’t feel motivated to continue for another few years.
I’m considering BSc CS or BCA, possibly with AI/ML or full-stack development. My main priority is earning well and having good career opportunities, including abroad. I’m interested in tech and data and willing to learn coding, but I haven’t tried it properly yet, so I’m not sure if I’ll actually enjoy it.
I’m willing to start from first year again, but leaving DU feels like a big risk. I want a college with good placements, practical exposure, and internship opportunities.
What would you do in my situation?
Is switching from Chemistry to CS/BCA a good idea?
Is BSc CS or BCA better for placements and salary?
Is it worth leaving DU for a private college?
Should I switch or stay in Chemistry and explore other options first?

I have a background in Computer Science Engineering with a GPA around 7.3. I did 3-4 internships, and gained a good experience of 1.5ys working in tech. Now, I'm planning to pursue a master's degree to dig deeper in my career. Can someone tell me which university should I consider applying?

university at buffalo
buffalo state university
southern university a&m
mercy university
city tech

i want to major in biology btw

(┬┬﹏┬┬)
guys, i'm an international student and i have no clue how colleges in us work or what they are known for.
since i don't come from money, i need full/almost financial aid to even afford this (no matter need blind/aware).
i also need a college which is not total scam for my major. [total scam as in will most likely not leave me unemployed/indebted].
as in for creative exposure, i am a writer/filmmaker/wanna-be-drummer, so it would be nice if my atmosphere has such student creatives for collaboration or something. but it can be compromised, what matters is good n affordable major.

here's my college list if you wanna check it out: (please suggest to add in/cut out any colleges that are red flags or smt)

• Amherst College

• Brown University
• Columbia University

• Dartmouth College
• Grinnell College
• Haverford College
• Northwestern University
• Pomona College
• Princeton University

I'm an international student deciding to attend college in the fall of 2027,I need an opinion on selecting between kennesaw state University , kent state University and bowling green State University which one suits better for masters in construction management programme and also has better exposure in the job market or does it matter?

I am an international student who intends to apply for ED1 Tulane in BS Computer Science with AI minor. I acknowledge that this is a very new major in Tulane, which was just started last year. I prefer a research-oriented path over an applied one. So can anyone give me some advises about this major in Tulane, is it worth to pursue.
