Edumacation And Enlearnment

[Chiana]

My freshman year I took archaeology, Canadian Studies, Art History and modern dance to explore options, along with my intro classes for my major.  Loved each one but found that I really don't like history, so archaeology was out and the rest were more just interests that I could continue to explore as electives and on my own.

I always wanted to get into Paleontology but my College didn't have any
classes in it

[Quantus]

Fwiw, there was not enough room in my curriculum for any elective courses, thanks to some questionable practices by Clemson (calling 5 year programs 4-year so as to not intimidate parents).  What electives I did have room for I got because I had AP credits that got me out of a few of the General requirements.  Some of the more intensive majors just dont really give you much freedom in terms of actual classtime to invest.  Ive known since I was knee high that Engineering was the Path for me, so transferring majors wasnt much of a concern, but thats far from normal Im sure.  regardless, even with that sort of situation you will never have more free time than College, until well after Retirement.  So in addition to electives, dont get so focused on the classes that you cant take advantage of the extra-curricular things around.  There were several clubs and activities (including a Skydiving Club!) that I could have been a part of but convinced myself I didnt have time for.  Had plenty of time for anime and DnD apparently

Not nessesarily, but it will mean you managed to learn a lot of stuff that was useful in other ways

So... does that mean that the things i learned that didn't keep me alive had nothing to do with survival, or does it mean that I ought to study self-defense, eating dirt, and camouflage?

[Doroga's Cousin]

I am in high school.  Probably one of the youngest users on the forum.  And the least educated. 

Hey man, I'm a Senior this year. I was a freshman when I joined. You'll fit in regardless.

OK.  Now I don my beret.  Never face the internet without a good hat.

Even non-STEM majors have this problem.  Most schools, music is a 4 year track, period.  No way around it.

Double-major bachelor's in anthropology and linguistics, and a master's in linguistics.

But I won't be going around correcting grammar; I studied minority and endangered languages. Sociolinguistics!
