Guys I decided I want to get a degree in Physics > I just

>> I moved into the double major for Physics and Comp Sci

Get rid of CompSci and do EE, CpE, or Mathematics instead.

>>8884851

I forgot to mention I am getting a minor in math too

>>8884844
Ignore anyone who tries to meme you into dropping comp sci, trust me.

Also, Physics is fucking cancer.

>>8884861

but why? I took chemistry and really liked the more abstract physics ideas so I thought it would be a good idea

With your grades, I highly suggest that you consider simply dropping to a single major. From what it sounds like, you don't really have the time or ability to do what it takes in order to get your grades where they should be with so many requirements in front of you.

Slow down, determine what it is specifically you want to do or study, and then concentrate on doing your best in that area.

My friend and I are both STEM majors, im in CS and took the algebra physics and he had to take the calc based one (i've finished my calcs though).

To me it seems like both courses cover nearly identical information. Physics is definitely different than pure calc in the sense that it just proves how we derived all the formulas we use in physics. Still use the same formulas and solve the same problems, so you'll be fine if you are already done with calc I and II

There are no jobs for physics. Physics should be renamed pre-physics. It's only a path to get into grad school. Even then, there are no jobs for physics grad students unless you are the top 1% of your class and go to a competitive university. Then, you might have a shot at academia. That's about it. If you get lucky, you can recycle yourself into finance or a shitty IT/programming job (if you bothered learning any computer skills) that you could have gotten years ago anyway. Who the fuck do you think pay real money to people because they learned useless shit about muons and other nonsense? If you find a job after a bachelor in physics, it will have nothing to do with actual physics.

Physics 1 has very little calculus in it as they expect you to be taking calculus at the same time.

Yea I don't want to get burnt out, but I've been lazy these past two semesters and I feel like I can work a lot harder than I have

>>8884886

I still stand by my original suggestion. Prove that you can work hard enough to do well in one major before you try to take on two + a minor.

>>8884889

The minor requires me to take linear algebra and one more math class so it isn't that bad.

I just don't know what I want to do so I'm trying to maximize my options. The comp classes have been easy so far so it doesn't seem too bad

I just don't want to drop classes at this point, but you may be right if I want to consider grad school

>>8884881
>physics
>useless shit
What about the Manhattan Project?

physics isn't really a great degree unless you continue with graduate studies, especially if you go to a mediocre university.

I'd suggest considering chemE with a minor in compsci. This will allow you to use the courses you've taken already and will be in what I presume are your target fields (chem, math, physics, and CS). There is a huge need for chemical engineers who're proficient at programming. Engineering physics is also an option if they offer it at your school. I think you should drop the double major, though, desu. Your grades aren't really that great and they're not actually looked on that favorably by most companies and grad programs. They'd rather see specialization, and a 3.7-4.0 with a single major is infinitely better than a 3.1 with a double major.

Fuck off to pol with you're pepe shit.
