Polaris_Tae 1,613 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Yes and no. I'm doing a double degree in International Studies and Journalism. I like my International studies one, however I've been slightly struggling with my Japanese minor, but so far my journalism one has been pretty lackluster, they require us to do a lot of photography and video/audio production which I don't really enjoy and it's not the type of field I'm looking on going into - I'm looking to do print journalism, not audio/broadcast journalism Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkpanda_spirit 14,647 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 I like it but I think I would love it if I understood it. I would have loved majoring in languages or in bakery though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me it was like having a toxic relationship People have been telling me to love medicine since I was young because of the money. I have given up on it now but back then I was continuosly forcing myself to love it so I kind of understand how that feels :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluebells and Snowdrops 3,566 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Yeah, it’s okay. I’m currently studying Latin and Ancient Greek, and although it’s extremely difficult (especially the Greek), I feel quite happy about it. It’s also really cool to go around and tell people “you know, I actually took classical languagesâ€, as well as knowing how a lot of different languages work. Many European languages have words that can be traced back to these languages, and it’s really cool to be able to draw connections from Greek or Latin, to for example English, German or French. I’ll graduate in half a year, so I will be really proud of having fought my way through 3 years of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marce11a 927 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 I'm doing a double degree in English language & literature and Communication sciences, I really enjoy it (even though it's sooo much to read).

Jstarfully 798 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Yes and no. I have a double major in chemistry and biology. I love my chemistry major, I just tolerate my biology major. I'm doing it to go into biomedicine/biochemistry for my masters. I want to develop new pharmaceuticals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puellarum generatio 3,628 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 I'm studying computer science. I used to like it but now I'm tired of it. I just want to get my diploma, to be done with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jstarfully 798 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 I don't know what that is but it seems freaking cool lol Haha which part? Biomedicine is essentially medicine but not studying to actually be a doctor or nurse or anyone that does the treating. A lot of the time people with biomedicine majors work on studying disease or body functions. Biochemistry is essentially a zoom-in on the parts of chemistry and biology that overlap. Like, essentially it's mostly on a molecular or nano scale. Protein function, cell function, hormone pathways, genetics, stuff like that. Technically my masters is actually going to be in biomedical surface science, which includes a bit of nanochemistry, biology, chemistry, biochem and immunology. It's a bit of everything. Surface science itself is the study of the interactions between different substances in different phases (like liquid, solid, gas). I have to do my Ph.D afterwards most likely, but when I'm done I want to work on developing new medicines, cures, treatments and therapies, or simply put I want to work in pharmaceuticals :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People have been telling me to choose med as my major but I don't really enjoy it that's why I started focusing on what I'm interested in which is economic informatics. oh cool, I always wanted to do med growing up, but once I heard about the entrance exam, I gave up on that wish (we have high school examinations here, as well as an extra exam on top of that if you want to study in nursing, medicine, or science), though I probably wouldn't tell anyone to go into med the hours are harsh, and then there's widespread workplace bullying... I've heard of cases here where if you report harassment to HR your superiors could blacklist you from ever working in another public hospital again. Economic Informatics though... wow, that sounds really interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First of all, please remember that we are all different - something that doesn't work for me might still work for you! But Business Administration was way too analytical and trivial for me! I didn't study it because I was interested in the subject(s), but because I didn't know what to do with my life. The most naive approach ever! I'm sure that you can make it if you are interested in/like your subject. In my case, everything I did at that time seemed so pointless. And because my degree didn't make any sense to me, I did very badly. Thankfully, I got accepted to my double degree which isn't pointless at all imo. I hope this answer can help you.
