I'm interested about chemical engineering . The thing is:

Take an IQ test. Then match it with the average IQ of a chemical engineer.

Otherwise there is nothing wrong with doing a job that does not require a high mental capacity, you can do trades or other skilled work that is high in demand

If you suck at math I guarantee you'll have a tough time with ChemE. Why the hell would you be interested in it?

>>1102393
Because the work field is fucking beautiful man. And I want to have a profession that makes me use full and not something that is just going to make me a parasite in society.

Keyword: Usefull

I think its also in good taste to say that I have borderline personality disorder... Thats the reason I keep changing degrees. Do any of you have tips for me to maintain myself in ONE degree until the end? Because if I didn't have borderline I would study hard and make even chemE work. But this fucking desease keeps me from it

I'm a recent ChemEng MSc graduate.

As for my experience, you can get by if math isn't your strong suit. However, it'll be pain forever if you suck at ALL the core subjects. You won't like studying and you'll hate the work afterwards.

>>1102452 i mostly hate math.. I was good in physics on highschool and at one point it was my favorite subject. But i know that in The grad course itll be much harder.

The course is morning and afternoon. And there's a massive library where we can study. Do you think that by studying after classes I could make me good even if I dislike some subjects? Be honest.

And what do you do now for job? I'm interested in the pharmaceutical industry

When you say you like physics but hate math what do you mean? They are the same, especially for chemical engineers. Very little chemistry is involved in chemical engineering, for most calculations in industry you will also use iterative programs because the problems are too complex (really the equations governing the reactions are too simple).

I was also in a similar situation. I started as poli sci. interested in law, switched to philosophy, switched to international relations, dropped out, switched to electrical engineering, then to chemical engineering. I think my parents were more supportive than yours but I was also going to community college when I was switching majors.

It was definitely different for me in HS. So I never paid to study also it's federal university so its free and very very good. They even give food-aid and transportation -aid.

The thing to keep swichting though is that I lost credibility with my parents. They don't trust me to finish anything. It's mostly embarrassment that I feel to change again you know? That's why I want to decide the course I want and then get back to my meds so that I don't drop out in the middle..

i dont mean to diminish youre experience but the best thing for you to do...is deal with it. perhaps you have life on hard mode or perhaps your a bitch and got suckereed into listenting to "dr greg" who thinks the answer to any type of discomfort is nurerotypical medication.

dont an illness define you and dont make excuses for it, dont bring it up and dont focus on it

1 2nd that you should take an IQ test online (dont pay for that shit its way too expensive-queendom has legit IQ tests for free) then match up what your interests are compared to your IQ

if you choose any type of major that is "easy on math" then you are setting yourself up to be a societal leech bc every other lazy self entitled asshole wants to take the easy route as well (ie _studies, literature, "education", political science,etc are all bullshit degrees)

also can you honestly say that you are giving your 100% effort, bc if you actually were then you wouldnt need to make the thread you did, you would know the answer.

give it your all and if you come up "short" then you will honestly know your limitations, but if you dont try and dont study on your own then you will always be wondering "what am i good at"

I never took physics or math in high school so everything about those subjects I learned in college. To be a successful engineering student you must be able to use and understand a range of mathematical techniques that range from simple to complex. If you struggle with mathematics now you can still learn, it might take more time than other students.

In order to avoid embarrassment maybe you should take a survey of math and science courses. By taking a wide range of science and mathematics courses you might gain more insight into what you really want to do. Chemical engineering requires courses from most disciplines so this would also contribute to completion of the major.

What I do know for a job is sorta atypical for ChemEngs.

I work for a contract lab, doing a lot of regular bench-level chemistry, while also being the company go-to guy for scaling up syntheses and commissioning chemical reactors and pilot plants. It's very diverse work and I love it.

Pay is 65000$ at entry-level.

>>1102792 that sounds great to me even though I have no idea what it is you actually do haha

>I suck at math
>I want to be an engineer


You're gonna have a bad time fampai

do a degree in information systems
