Kek. Not the poster you replied to, but how many people do you know that do what they LOVE and make a decent wage? The only person I know who did what they loved is my dad.

UBC has a way of creating new degrees so they can slap it on their brochure for marketing purposes. I have yet to figure out the difference between biochemistry and chemical biology, yet they're considered two separate degrees. There's also integrated science, general science, and CMS.

And it's not just the faculty of science which does this. We also have a Bachelor of International Economics program alongside our regular economics program.

The campus is very safe(Actually much safer than MSU, crime statistics wise, but it is a smaller school). I can't say anything about outside campus though, but I regularly walk downtown which is like a 3 mile walk. I haven't been shot
yet.

Initially I kinda regretted not going to MSU cause it was a big 10 school and they'd most likely have better networking opportunities, but I really like it here in Detroit. Not too sure education-wise, but MSU probably has WSU's Engineering program beat, but it's really Umich or bust imo. Not gonna matter when I(hopefully) land my first internships.

Alright dude, college fag here (UK), i'm a good programmer and know Python and C# to a high extent. But how much theory and mathematics is involved in university CompSci?

I've done CompSci GCSE - A*
And i'm currently doing CompSci A-levels, which i'm finding revatively easy, yet there's not much maths involved here, morely programming. I suck at maths and got a B, and am not taking it in college, so what do?
>>
>>8640656
Considering his focus with CS is AI, I would think in his case a lot of math is involved. To many others, CS is not math heavy; especially if they are going the B.A. route which is like one to two higher learning maths required. You go the B.A. route, expect to be either a code monkey or spend much of your time studying for networking and security certificates,
>>
>>8640650
Don't get me wrong, Manchester itself is great - the nightlife is amazing and everything here is a lot cheaper than down south.

The CS course here is meant to be 8th best in the UK, but honestly I feel a bit of a chump for not looking deeper into the course content before deciding to come, as the course totally lacks, well... depth.

I don't know anyone on microbiology though, so can't offer an opinion on whether the course is good or not. If you do come, I hope you enjoy it!

>>8640656

Lad you'll have to suffer through the intro to programming shit as I've done (stupidly long assignments covering very basic stuff).
The maths on this course is quite difficult, primarily because I've never been exposed to statistics/probability, proofs and logic before... not too bad though. I got an A at A-level, but I since being here realise that I'm quite shit at maths. The amount of romanians here is insane... they've all done something like 4x the amount of maths we're exposed to up to university level before, so they find it alot easier.

Wherever you end up going, get to a load of hackathons - full of spergs but really good fun.

University is alright. No sports culture despite having a historic lacrosse program. Engineering school is depressingly busy and lots of competition for the good research spots. Arts/Science school for the most part has too much free time and does a lot of moral posturing. Lots of bitching about how we have an obligation to help city niggers but obviously no action taken lel. Oh and most of the university feels like they have something to prove since this was their safety school and they struck out with Ivies and Stanford.

As far as the BME major is concerned, I ride the curve and get B's with fairly little effort. Indian students are smelly cunts and have a library of backtests that they rarely share. Good faculty but the advising can be shit. A lot of students butthurt that Georgia Tech is now the #1 BME program after Hopkins held the spot for like 2 decades.

Microbiology faculty is small and cozy, you pass by a lot of familiar faces, especially in 3rd year when you do your lab course. Our building is a little run down (it used to be a hospital back in the day) but functional. Campus is like a small city and can be a bitch to cross from one end to another in 10 minutes if you register for courses that far apart(shouldn't happen unless you have varied interests and decide to take an elective on the other side of campus)... Student body is pretty diverse, although a lot of us are Asian.

I thoroughly enjoy listening in the the weekly research seminars held in the life science building and in recommend attending the presenters that interest you.

Law is a decent paying field though. Maybe its just a personal opinion but any degree that lands you a high paying job is "worth" it. But you will be doing that job every day for a living. So I guess its a matter of doing something you dont like but could still live with yourself if you had no choice. Bottom line: if you're not happy you're not happy.

I have a bad feeling it's the wrong move to respond but yes I'm ethnically Chinese, culturally Canadian (I speak better French than Chinese).

I don't like that Vantage College exists. If your English isn't good enough to enter UBC, improve it or go somewhere else... I understand that the international student population brings more money to the school, but the whole concept of accepting international students with subpar English language skills when locals and literate internationals baffles me.

I'm late 20s and I was thinking of going to Harvard extension school to get a degree in computer science.

Understand what it is and what it isn't. It's a Harvard diploma with the value of a UMass degree for several times the cost. It's not going to catapult you into the elite like a "real" Harvard degree would, but the quality of education is still there. For CS however there are much more affordable options out there. And if you just need a degree to find work, you don't need to "learn from the best" you just need to learn the standard material they teach in all schools.

The only people who consider Harvard extension are those who want to be able to list Harvard on their resume but it turns out you can't even do that. What do you think goes on your resume after you graduate?

>Harvard University, BS in Computer Science

Nope. BA in CS? Not even that. There are very specific rules for what extension students can write on their resume and it turns out to be this.

>Harvard University, Bachelor of Liberal Arts in extension studies, Concentration in computer science

They should be more professional as instructors than that. After all, you're paying tens of thousands to be there.
>Would the professors not offer opportunities to research, etc?
Extremely doubtful. Many schools offer some form of continuing education to working adults in the area, understand that the extension school is just Harvard's version of that. If you want research opportunities try a regular degree. Also understand that there are people from top schools around the world (including Harvard) vying for opportunities to do research with these profs. Ask yourself whether your extension studies degree would stack up against these people.
>From your response I guess employers that only hire people from the elite like the "real" Harvard, like wall street for example, would shun such a degree?
Wall Street HR personnel are very well acquainted with Ivy League degrees, many of them have one themselves. Your resume would be trashed immediately.

>How can you admire objectivity then go in to law?

Yeah that's kinda why I'm conflicted.

Although law is certainly more 'objective' than other non-STEM subjects such as English, Philosophy, History, etc. At least in law there is problem-solving and some questions that do have certain answers. Sure there can be debate over technical points of law (usually 'does X count as Y?') but in a lot of typical scenarios it's fairly clear-cut what the answer is. If it weren't then the law would be completely unreliable, right?

I think law is the best of all the non-STEM subjects if you enjoy problem-solving and that stuff. I'm just hung up on how law is 'artificial' whereas science studies naturally-occurring things.

I really do enjoy studying law itself. But I just can't get out of my head the idea that science is 'purer'.

Not same anon.

Best thing about labs is that you can move around and physically do things. Pure number crunching and working with computers can get tedious for 8 hours a day, so it is nice to have an excuse to move around a bit.

Worst thing about labs is that experimentations are so uncertain and long. It's easy to waste a month of work simply because of pure random chance. That actually didn't bother me though. What bothered me is that some experiments require you to be present after hours. Biology is on its own clock and can't always be timed out to match your own schedule.

I am the same anon. Your sentiments are shared. I did pre-med in a different university. Pre-meds hate each other because they all think they are royalty and are A type personalities.

There are cool, more quick witted biologists, but they usually go into research and have unorthodox backgrounds. For example, my PI went to Yale for physics, then med school, and then ended up in research.

The math you use very much depends on your research.

Some research requires very advanced math and other research requires almost no math (very basic stats and dimensional analysis). Probably most labs don't require very much math. In the lab that I was talking about, I didn't have to use very much math.

Yet, when I help out some friends in neuroscience, the math that they have to use (or atleast understand) is fairly advanced. Actually, alot of neuroscientists come from physics, math, and engineering backgrounds. Now that I think about it, I think all my neuroscience professors had very mathematical backgrounds.

Usually, advanced statistics and computer science would be applicable to biological research. Alot of researchers even just become data scientists after getting their PhD.

The Amazon reviews reflect my feelings on them.

To go into more specifics of when advanced math is used, advanced math is used mainly for modeling. Biological systems have many stochastic, constantly changing variables. In order to properly represent those processes in the model, statistics, differential equations, advanced linear algebra, etc. are required. In addition, for some bioengineering, biophysics, etc., a knowledge of physics is necessary to create good models. I have seen modeling particularly prevalent in: biophysics, biochemistry, and neuroscience.

The labs that do not need as much math are the ones that are not trying to create mathematical and computer models. Those labs would just need some basic math for things like hypothesis testing, rate calculations, dilution factors, etc.

It is a common infiltration technique used by the government (e.g. remember Egypt). But this might be anarchists and not the gov. Definitely a different group though.

Were you Scottish or did you go to Edinburgh after finishing your A-levels? I would hate to spend 4 years at university for an undergrad degree (5 for a masters). Or were you allowed to enter in 2nd year?

As long as your degree is ABET accredited you should be fine as long as you do well. Even if you cant land your dream company straight from college, when you apply later with experience your college of study wont really matter

That would requires taking evolution/ecology classes which I find boring as shit compared to stuff like molecular biology or genetics

Also I despise anatomy

>Cambridge is fucking awesome. So tranquil. I leisurely punt on the River Cam. I'm surrounded by beautiful architecture. I dine in full academic dress (Harry Potter-style gowns) in dining halls that are older than your country, where I am served luxurious 4-course meals. I have weekly 1 on 1 meetings with world-leading experts in my subject where I get exclusive feedback on my work. When I tell people I go to Cambridge, I am treated like a celebrity. I have employers literally falling over themselves to offer me high-paying jobs. I'm going to be really sad when I have to leave. I genuinely believe there is no other university in the world that can match this experience.

6 important questions.

1) What will you be studying?

2) Where did you do your undergraduate?

3) What did you study for your undergraduate?

4) Do you intend to live and work in Ireland?

5) Are you Irish?

6) Do you have any other choices?

Dont pick major until last year

1st year (3rd year equivalent in other countries since there is 2 years of mandatory cram school in France)

I fucking hate engineering and my school as well.
>>
>>8648541
I lived right outside of Seattle for 1.5 years during school as a total outsider from the east coast and I thought it was fine. It's definitely nicer than Pittsburgh, at least. The nature of Washington is great, too.

a lot of asians though so that was annoying but I was in school so they'd be there no matter where I go.

Alot of companies and people from the bay are moving up to Seattle because the bay is too expensive. The bay is still more expensive than Seattle, but the foot traffic is pushing prices up alot in the Pacific Northwest.

I lived in both places. I personally liked Seattle much more than San Francisco. However, probably most of the people in San Francisco wouldn't like the weather or the quieter personality types found in the Seattle region.
>>
>>8648550

You should have seen the ramen festival in San Francisco. Buses and the BART were crammed as everyone from everywhere was trying to go to the city to get a bowl of ramen. In terms of Asian population, Seattle is nothing compared to the bay area.

The guy you are replying to probably is from California. Everything that is not California is a shit hole according to a Californian.

I almost went near SF for Berkeley as a transfer but I chose NYC for Columbia instead. I highly prefer Jews to Asians, basically, but I also sort of didn't want to live in California.
>the quieter personality type
I totally get what you mean.
>>
>>8648554
>you mean passive aggressive hippies?

Actually, that was more of my experience with the bay. Seattle seemed alot more chill to me, and that's why I liked it more.

The Pacific Northwest has alot of Nordic influence. I have read that alot of people take in the region's culture poorly; it has a name, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seattle_Freeze .

I seem to have found two contradictory statements in your post.

>passive aggressive just means you're a petty twat

i.e. most of the people that I met in California

> introverted snownigger intellectual (oxymoron, I know, scandinavians and their descendants are subhumans)

i.e. most of the people that I met in Seattle

I am a little confused what you are trying to say. It sounds like you are agreeing with me while insulting Scandinavians by calling them subhuman?

I am curious, what is a good region according to you?
