╯SHIwol╰ 2,348 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 I'm currently taking BS in Computer Science and you know those moments where you just had a one to one talk with yourself, it's like I'm not for CS anymore. I'm just trying to force myself to take it. I'm really interested in Psychiatry for a long time already but back then it was just a hobby for me (Randomly research about why some people tends to think like that etc) though now, I find myself wanting to go to that path. Probably gonna take psychology as an undergrad. I'll be 18 this year and if I did change my program, 1 year will be wasted and I'm kind of worried about that OH people help?

sillysone 6,340 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 I would say change it. If you feel like CS is not for you anymore, then just go for Psychiatry, even if it means losing a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loeyeol 3,808 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 I think even if it means losing one more year, it's better for you to do what you like, so that you will live a happier future where you wont be stuck doing something that you don't like. Or is it okay to do a double major or something like that? Ask yourself what's really good for youself! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Weasley 769 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 if you don't like your program now, you should change it. It will be hard for you if you don't like your job in long-term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to get a job with a psychology degree. You have to go get a PhD to even have a shot at a job, as I knew some unemployed people with a masters degree in psychology.

Leerhiyel 1,546 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 It will be much more waste if you'll reach your last few years in Comp Sci and you'll feel so lazy in studying coz you don't like it anyway that eventually lead up in probably failing. Take what you really wanted. At least you'll have this drive of studying because you are interested in what you are taking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyeon 13,114 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 definite change it, 1 year is fine imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruppi 9,190 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 1year is nothing ,in the grand scheme of life...I'd change it if I were you. To be stuck with something you don't like, is a much worse option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VerySappy 600 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Do what you think is best for you. I'm currently a ComSci student but I'm thinking of shifting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
╯SHIwol╰ 2,348 Posted February 20, 2016 Author Share Posted February 20, 2016 same for me im stuck between med and architecture x.x I'm laughing right now because Architecture and CS were what really bothers me before I enter college XD I think even if it means losing one more year, it's better for you to do what you like, so that you will live a happier future where you wont be stuck doing something that you don't like. Or is it okay to do a double major or something like that? Ask yourself what's really good for youself! I've thought about that but I don't think I can afford to take a double major. CS is quite challenging on its own already. I years are never wasted btw what is wrong about changing for something you actually like ? i think you should do it Graduating at the age of 22-24 is still fine?? Are you in the U.S.? It's hard to get a job with a psychology degree. You have to go get a PhD to even have a shot at a job, as I knew some unemployed people with a masters degree in psychology. Nope I'm not in the US. but from what I've researched a lot take psychology for their undergrad then go get their MD... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkumaddict 348 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 change it, 1 year is nothing same for me im stuck between med and architecture x.x Architecture is hard, but if you really interest in architecture and love to designing. take it , it's fun . but it can be your hell if you doesn't have desire to become an architect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dasom's Nose 1,100 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 if you have the resources then why not. i met lots of people (including myself) who's not able to change our programs bc of money or lack thereof and pressures from parents. do what makes you happy, that's what most important. and oh, one year is nothing really op. i'd give up a year, a two or three even if i have the opportunity and resources to change my program.

puellarum generatio 3,628 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Graduating at the age of 22-24 is still fine?? you're at college ? yes it's fine then it depends on what is the most important for you. if you want to be sure to find a job i would advice you to stay in computer science.

sublime 2,137 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 One year is fine imo. Do what you're the most passionate about. Just don't change after like three years of studying a major. It's too much of a waste of time and money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belle. 3,407 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Being late 1 year is better than wasting your life forcing yourself to do something you don't like And I don't see 1 year a big deal My friend studied Medicine for 4 years but she didn't find herself into it and now she is studying finance She is really different now she is bright and happy and she says it's the best decision I have ever made It is something you gonna live your life with don't make one year ruin it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

littlepeaches 257 Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 same situation right here. i'm a 2nd year math major right now but since i cant find any field that i might enjoy with this degree i might want to shift to an engineering course. or maybe take up engineering as my second degree. Better now than never. One year vs. 4 years wasted, man. yes. you can go follow what you're passionate about but it can be a waste of time and money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loveuseutory 36 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Choose the course with more job vacancies. If both of the sectors provide jobs in the future, then choose the course based on your passion =) So that you'll be more sincere and willing to learn the subjects and work in the future c: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
