Physics is harder. Idk wtf you mean by meme degree. Both will get you good jobs.

Source: I have a physic bachelors, and I know a lot of chemists which will openly admit that physics is harder.

[spoiler]I wish I had done Chemistry. I'd have the same job opportunities, and I would have graduated earlier and with better grades.[/spoiler]

They're both massive pains in the dick. The difficulty is determined by your ability to comprehend math obviously. If you're bloody amazing at it than either class will be a piece of cake. If you're shite at it however, your best bet is chem.

Because the only plausible thing you can do with your degree is teach. Even more so, your most likely choices are middle school or high school teacher.

Are the "tiers" supposed to be difficulty or what? Because a proper music degree is a solid as fuck, it contains things that most people won't even know the slightest thing about. Listen to a piece of music and name the cadence at bar 4? A music degree isn't about being a karaoke pop singer.

Neither because both are just about as worthless as a bachelors in psychology and you probably won't find a job unless you're some innovative genius or pursue graduate studies. If you're going to pursue grad school, definitely physics.

Difficulty has nothing to do with the tiers. It's what is worth more in the long run.

All degrees are difficult in their own way. But, overall, what are the likely chances that you'll end up making a good amount of money off of your degree vs working in retail or fast food because you can't get a job with your useless degree. Just cuz you know all the details about pop music doesn't mean shit if you can't cash in on it or write hit music.

No one gives 2 shits about local bands either or church choir groups. Sorry, but your chances of making anything past a living is very fucking small.

Okay. So how much does he make there and how long has he been working there as well?
Just because a handful of people got a job somewhere outside of teaching history doesn't mean it's worthwhile at all. Im betting his salary is shit compared to everyone else in his department.

>>678532330

If it's what is worth more in the long run than really the only things that should be in god tier are medicine, engineering, pharmacy and clinical psychology (PhD) as with the latter, there will never be a shortage of mentally ill people and they make good money. Also there is no chance of the profession ever being replaced by machines.

Bachelors of Science in Biochemistry here! I graduated in May 2011 and have worked non-stop since. I've worked at Monsanto, Sigma, and Pfizer. I started making $40k / year right after college, and 5 years later I am making $73k + 7.5% annual bonus.

Couple of pointers - Whether you go chem/biochem you WILL work in your field. There are a lot of jobs. If you go the physics route, it's going to have to be specialized in something like electrical engineering, not astrophysics if you intend to get a job.

Straight out of college when you get your chemistry or biochem degree (because you'll choose this over physics if you want a job) you'll need to start finding jobs with staffing agencies. Ask your teachers who the staffing agencies are. Start putting your name out there 4 months before graduation.

As for which is more enjoyable? Physics is more enjoyable. They are about equally difficult. Be the best at math you can be. Obsess over algebra, etc. It will help you tremendously in either case. Know how to formulate an equation from a word problem. Biochem is arguable more marketable than chem. There are no jobs I'm not competing with chemists with, but there are jobs I can get that they can't.

TL;DR get Biochem BS get paid.

As a software engineer working at a software medical company, I completely agree with your choices.
Although, you definitely have to keep mathematics, physics and chemistry in God-tier as they ALWAYS have the potential for making large amounts of money, ppl with those degrees that don't make good money are flat out lazy or content for some reason to keep their low paying job (wants to teach, high job security, staying in a shitty area cuz of family or some other gay shit).

Engineering or Computer Science are the only viable ways to go if you want a job

chemists can only find jobs in texas but who the fuck wants to live in texas?

engineering is really just applied physics to what ever field and most places usually want to hire them over physicists.

And for computers pretty much computers are in every field so you can do what ever you want with this and the pay is great, also coding will be in 10 years what reading and writing are now, so you need to learn how to code or else you'll become an obsolete and illiterate hill billy.

Because most of the economics is just rationalizing pre-conceived notions, judging by the debates of the so-called top economists. (And, yes, I read Krugman's blog, among other things.)

As soon as a "science" deals with political issues (especially when money is involved), it is in constant danger of turning into quackery.

Because it's a strict for fun degree. It doesn't have actual well paying aptitudes in the real world. Historian and teacher, that's about it.

I agree with you to a point, Psychology is a great degree, IF the people who got BA in Psychology also go to med school afterwards.
Considering most don't, and end up being miserable excuses for lives, usually end up teaching high school psychology, it brings the overall relevancy of psychology down to the low tier

Study mathematics, honestly you can then teach yourself physics to degree level pretty easily. Also you can go straight into the more interesting areas of physics from mathematics, physicists are always asking for their help. Also, maths is the only god tier subject, immutable, beautiful, transcendent. I studied physics at imperial college, wish i'd done mathematics. physics is to mathematics as french is to linguistics.
>>
>>678543557
This, mathematics is pretty beast

Also, you don't have to just do math. I know a lot of people with math degrees who transitioned to other related fields.

Like computer science for example. A lot of the topics of higher math are translatable to computer science (sets, groups, graphs), and your ability to think like a mathematician will really come in handy when you're devising algorithms.

And pretty much every kind of engineering can utilize a math major.

Degree A might be worth 0.5 by itself but allow you to get to Degree B which is worth 2.5 by itself. It does not mean Degree A is worth 2.5, however.

Basically, just because a degree gets you to a JD doesn't make it higher tier.

Some JPEG. Yeah, I assume you know a lot about quality law schools if you consider that reputable data. Besides, the data did not support your claim -- it showed generally PolScis do quite average but absolutely quite well on the LSAT.

Ask yourself this simple question: how many successful lawyers have you ever heard of consider him/herself a political science major/advocate? They are all proud of their bar exam and law degree while the political science aspect is tossed in the trash.

Using a degree as a stepping stone into a better career is acceptable. Taking the shitty degree and stopping there is not.

Idk why STEM fags think their degrees are worth more pay

If you can land a senior engineer position in a weapons/aeronautics/etc industry then sure... Yes youll make around 200k a year

Typically Level I-IV jobs earn around 60k-120k annually

Vs
Business Economics Statistics Law etc.

Right off the bat you can always find a job (IE unlike stem fields they arent over buttloaded with fucking chinks and gooks and fuckin pakis who got there first) unlike most stemfag friends of mine who I had to help get low paying 13.55 an hour jobs at my work

Business/Finance positions earn more earlier and have the opportunity to earn millions annually if you play your cards right

You could always make your own startup although this takes more proper planning, luck and startup finances than an actual degree

I'm not trying to be an ass, but I find it amusing that those who don't want to have labor heavy careers either have poor health in their mid thirties or spend money and time working out. I just don't see the appeal I guess. I also don't have student loans for years to come. Hell I got a 100 dollar stipend to cover travel expenses every week while training for 3 months. They even put people in hotel rooms for free if they were 75 miles or more way, along with an extra 20 a day for food. I just don't see why we have a shortage of new blood in the trades.

>>678550714

you're pretty much right, the fact that you're getting paid to work rather than paying (and taking loans usually) to study is a major advantage for the trades. as for the physical labor aspect, there is a difference between staying fit and having to sweat and labor at work everyday. my cousin is an electric lineman and he makes baller money but he always tells me to stay in school because every day when he gets home his back and knees hurt, and he has to keep hurting them everyday at work. It's a trade off I guess

>more money here at home
This is a fallacy. Moving to a service economy has made the US richer.

As for the point about employment, all that would happen if you were to move production back to the US is that robotics would build your goods. Employment would not change one bit, unless you wish to reduce standard of living, minimum wage, and therefore make it cost-effective to have men and women producing.
>>
>>678552227

How is it a fallacy? If they are paying an American in America to do the labor instead of a Chinese person in China, how is there not more money at home as a result?

You're clueless, bud. Just face. Your 401st JD has taught you nothing about the legal profession.

Because the American in America is making products for bottom dollar and so their disposable income is lower than it ordinarily would be. They don't contribute as much to GDP and the economy as a whole stagnates.

Sky sparkies have my fucking respect, working in lightining and shit, fuck leave that for the crazy ass ex-marines.
>>
>>678552891
They would not be. In the service economy, US unemployment has pretty much stayed at the same level. 4% in the 50s and 5% today.

Further, the economy does not depend solely on individual activity -- "I am in employment, so I have more money". If the cost of giving that person a job is higher than the difference in their contribution to GDP than when they did not have a job, then their not having a job would be better to the economy. For example, if you take cheap plastic goods made in China -- which the US consumerist depends on -- and increase the cost of it by 500% by having .5% of otherwise unemployed Americans make it, that is going to detriment GDP rather than add to it.

Isn't the point just that hiring Americans rather than foreigners would result in the capital-owning class/1% having less money and the average American having more?

Why would it reduce the amount of money the 1% possess if the 50% are taking in less money? The service economy, as I previously mentioned, makes Americans richer. It doesn't just serve the 1%, in fact it serves social mobility and allows for personal growth. It's the death of the 1% -- or the closest thing we'll come to it.

>>
>>678554573

It wouldn't, you missed my point. I was saying that it doesn't matter that our GDP grows every year because wages are stagnating or decreasing and that is what matters. Moving manufacturing here would hurt the .1% and help the 99%, even if it comes at a cost to GDP because all of that growth was going to the mega rich anyway

Minimum wage is a price floor that fucks with the economy. Companies don't give a fuck about the dollar amount things cost that's just a reference number. They give a shit about profit margin.

Not a lawfag but wouldn't the American lawyers be hired for *American* and/or code law? Sure they could study international or human rights law but if they're representing international companies they'd need to learn the laws of those jurisdictions. What good is international law for a trial lawyer suing American plaintiffs in American venues interpreting American law?

Also, if America considered English law they'd have no gun crime, don't you think? And universal healthcare. And better roads.

Obama is a stuttering moron. The only reason he says anything intelligent is because of his index cards written by someone else or his teleprompter. Every single time you have seen a question and answer assembly, those questions were pre-screened weeks beforehand. My dad was in a military unit where he got the opportunity to see and "ask a question" to the president. The rules were: 1.) send your questions in to the presidential administration; 2.) if your question is selected, a senior member of the unit will ask the question at the assembly.

If George W. Bush can make it as president, how do you expect the other presidents to line up with their intelligence? Their education is in politics with just a mere shred elsewhere in our curriculum.

;tldr - Obama is good with presentations and giving speeches. All intellectual knowledge is given out beforehand or during.
