I'll find it, I know where San Carlos Ave. is, it's a pretty long street though

University College, Oxford University (hopefully). Took a year out, but baring me messing up my exams, should matriculate in the Autumn.

B.A. Economics and Management - show me the money!

My brother graduates on 24th June, with a BA in Maths from Pembroke College, Cambridge. He defered graduation, as he spent last summer doing research at CalTech, but also gets his certificate of advanced mathematics (Cambridge 4th year). But he's staying there to do a PhD in some aviation mathematics.

quote: Originally posted by Asher So it is true that a BA < BSc.

Depends where you go. Some universities just offer a BA as a force of habit. I think my brother's got a BA in Maths, and being Cambridge, that's just maths. No arts courses whatsoever (although he did do a computational project).

I will

Been working tirelessly the last few weeks, so hoping I've done enough. Got economics next monday and wednesday, and maths and mechanics the monday and wednesday after. If I only needed an A in one of them, like last year, I'd be confident. As it is, it's pretty much in the balance.

Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, New York (outside Albany).

Going into my 3rd year. BS in Computer Science and Psychology (focusing on AI, or as my school calls it "Cognitive Science"), minor in Management and Technology.

I overloaded the hell out of my schedule, and if I chose to I could graduate a full year early. I probably won't though

I'm not sure where I'm going when I get out of college. My two main "dreams" are working for a gaming company (I've already made a few simple games with groups on campus), or doing research on Artificial Intelligence. I'm going to suck up to some professors next semester and try to get some research done while I'm at school.

My school has some system where they pay for your graduate school if you become a teacher's assistant, and do research with a professor on a "professional level", whatever that means. I may take advantage of that. Only time will tell.

I'm minoring in management to appease my mother, who hates that I'm majoring in Psychology. Maybe one day I'll get my MBA or something.

You don't necessarily even need a degree. My mother got into medical school without an undergad degree and with only about 2 years of college courses. But she was wicked smart and aced her MCATs.

Probably Human Resources.

A Fellow Psych major!!!

I really like the fact that taking psych courses, you inadvertently learn how to modify any personality test toward whatever outcome you desire.

Even those really tricky ones...I think it's the MMPI.

Psych does sound interesting. I've always wanted to minor in it, but we can't do that here. You have a degree course, and I can't do Economics and Psychology anywhere I wanted to go.

After reading Complexity, AI looks really interesting too, but I don't have the computer skills for it. Some of it seemed so simple in theory, how to make a computer learn, but in practice it would take much more than I could do, computerwise.
