Help fail go back to college... What should I do?

by Failhorse » Sat Jul 23, 2011 12:23 pm

For the record. I am a college dropout already. 8 years removed.
I do not want to be a psychiatrist. My inherent issues with people probably make that a bad idea.
Harden the fuck up, for whatever reason, isn't a plausible response to someone who dreams they shit trout.

Community college is cheap. I could probably get an associates, if credits transfer, in apx. a year.

I'd suspect business management is the generic title.

Suggestions?

Chemist. Thats what I was doing, might get back to it soon.

Your friends will be asking you to make ecstasy and crystal for them... which is the only downside to the money.
What do you mean syringes don't go there? I am the doctor here... they go where I say they go.

I think you should go for it Fail. Having a degree opens up a wide variety of opportunities. I think a community college is perfectly suitable. I would also suggest online classes at a community college or a university.

If you're happy with what you do now, is there really a reason to go?
However, if you do still want to complete the degree, I suggest majoring in something you could see yourself doing later in life. I suggest asking friends about their jobs and comparing that experience to what you do now.

I'd say you should think about the work you do for fun, then find a job where you do that work for pay.
I refuse to use
    Soda Popper
    Liberty Launcher
    Axtinguisher; Phlogistinator
    Stickybomb Launcher
    Tomislav
    Pomson 6000
    Quick Fix
    Bushwacka; Machina
    Enforcer; Spycicle

on CSn servers.
I don't expect you to, but I appreciate those of you that do.

I'm just a random internet guy but I completely agree with business management maybe as a precursor to an MBA?

If you're going to get a chemistry degree, stop at a masters. Getting a PhD in chemistry makes it sooooo much fucking harder to find a job. And right now NONE of the major drug companies are hiring PhD chemists. If you want to go into science, go into virology or something that studies antibodies; you'll get a job 30 seconds after your graduate.

But to address Fails question, I'd go someplace like a community college to finish out your undergrad. Then the plan would be to get a company to pay for you to get your MBA somewhere. MBAs are a bullshit racket anyway. If you have half a brain about business you already know all the shit they are going to teach you, you just need to shell out the $40k per year to get into the club.

Getting a PhD in anything makes it hard to find a job. This is the pothole I'm in now. I'm about to move for my PhD education and I have very few job prospects. But, I'm a genius in my area. I'm confident.
