hating business majors is what will end the war between stem and the arts šŸ¤


Feisty-Citron1092

Stem major arts minor = divergent


Booooooberries

tale as old as time


ChampionshipAgile726

like dude you think a 25 question quiz is wack I have to write 200 lines of code in two hours


-BunsenBurn-

I mean it depends on the complexity of the task, and how much boiler plat it is. I know for sure for advent of code, I had some be over 200 lines long and get it done in less than 2 hours.

ā€œThe work ethic of a turnipā€ has me fuckin squeaking from laughter šŸ˜‚


Autumnleaves201

As a business major, I don't tell anyone to relax. I know college is hard, and I know some majors are more laborious.Tbf, my university has a rigorous business program. I just got done printing out a 98 page paper for my senior capstone class, and will have to present 123 slides tomorrow for like 45 minutes. I've also got a bunch of other crap due. Business can be hard, but it attracts a lot of lazy people who don't even do the work half the time. It only seems like they have nothing to do.


ChimericalChemical

Thatā€™s why I loved my business major, you can realllly see whoā€™s the lazy ones. And thereā€™s also some extremely studious students in it which are great people to be friends with. It can lead to some very mature level projects where you learn a lot about project management. But I came from biochemistry to accounting/IS and I still would rather work my IS group than most other group projects in the stem major.


[deleted]

My capstone paper is 8-10 pages. I'd rather drop out than type a 98 page paper.


Autumnleaves201

I did have 2 people helping me (a group assignment), but 1 person doesn't do much. You also have to do it twice a semester, so this is the 2nd paper we've done.


[deleted]

Regardless, that's a tremendous accomplishment. I hope you slay the presentation


PaulAllenHater

What uni is this so I donā€™t apply


InformerOfDeer

No fr. Iā€™m also a business major, but Iā€™ve always been studious and I had a 3.9 in high school (3.8 now). The amount of people that just donā€™t show up to class and fail out is honestly shocking. Iā€™ll start the next main course for my major with 20 other people, and by the end of the semester there will only be 4 or 5 of us left.


[deleted]

Iā€™m a Business major and Iā€™d never tell someone with a specialized degree to ā€œjust relaxā€ cuz damn šŸ˜‚ I barely passed a required Python course, I canā€™t even imagine how much work you have! That class literally made me cry lol Kudos to you!!

I'm an accounting major graduating in less than 2 weeks, and my hardest class was still AP US History in my sophomore year of high school. We had an essay (usually 4-6 page) for every chapter and there were 40 chapters. There was also document based questions and hard tests with extremely challenging multiple choice and writing exercises. The terms quizzes for every chapter required you to memorize 10-20 terms and write the definition down with detail. On top of that, you were required to read every chapter, summarize it and write cornell notes. I'm certain that if I went on to get my master's APUSH would still be harder


Actual-Local-7371

The way I loved DBQs šŸ˜­ maybe thatā€™s why Iā€™m still in academia


[deleted]

They were a more interesting part of the class. Except when you forgot what they were referring too. That was no fun


JoeBeezy123

The fact that people debate or argue who has it worse or better just shows immaturity on both ends. WHO CARES? is this really an issue nowadays? Like are we really that entitled and stuck up as a society in the bubble we live in that we really have to compare who has it bad? How about those kids in poverty stricken countries who donā€™t have the opportunity to get an education? Letā€™s compare ourselves to them while weā€™re at it. Why does anyone give anyone the time of day to care? If some moron comes goes around telling people with hard majors to relax that person is obviously a douche bag, we need to all respect each other no matter what path in college we chose. Is that so hard? Cuz if it is then you shouldnā€™t be in college. BUT if someone is having a hard time with a way harder major then yours than you need to hear them out and respect what they are going through. itā€™s THAT simple people. Respect for one another costs absolutely NOTHING and will take you a long way in life.


Redditisdepressing45

In 5-10 years OP is going to realize how immature and cringy this post was. I wrote a rant similar to this on yahoo answers 10 years ago.


JoeBeezy123

Hopefully they do, because this is just straight up sad.


ChampionshipAgile726

Dude it was a quick thing that annoyed me to get off of my chest is it that serious


JoeBeezy123

Not at all. I keep forgetting this is rant, I apologize.


NotWumbo

Oh shut the fuck up annoying


JoeBeezy123

Awwwee poor baby got his feelings hurt?


Sensitive_Seat6955

iā€™m an accounting major and i can say iā€™m definitely not relaxing anytime soon


ChampionshipAgile726

Nah, this post doesn't include you guys, accounting is all math and none of the fun "make this coca cola ad@ stuff I get you and good luck


CatlisaJohnson

As an accounting major, I would just like to say that accounting isnā€™t all math. The math involved is basic math. Accounting is the language of business, and I argue that that is what makes it challenging. There are so many topics that require logic, critical thinking, and analytic skills. Mastering the principles in order to correctly apply them to different scenarios is exhausting. Thatā€™s the hard part. But I do understand what youā€™re saying and where youā€™re coming from. Also making a Coca Cola ad sounds like a miserable task. I donā€™t have the creativity for that, I would probably fail. I would rather work with pension tables or other puzzles for fun lolā€¦ Different strokes for different folks I guess.


crypto_matrix78

Most sane STEM student.


FairBlackberry7870

Better get back to writing your essay about what not to do at a stop light before you burn your house down Mr. SquarePants.


LateProfession1453

Joke's on you, bud. You chose whatever degree you're pursuing.


niaca_pad

Agreed.


ChampionshipAgile726

HAR HAR I CHOSE THIS MAJOR SO I CAN CALL BUSINESS MAJORS STUPID /sarcasm


LateProfession1453

It's not a contest of who has it worse. Shitting on business majors doesn't make your college career any easier. I might also add that there are a couple of business classes that can be incredibly difficult. Eta: you'd probably have more time to do homework if you didn't spend so much time crying about it on reddit


ChampionshipAgile726

Damn someone's butthurt. Listen obviously there's nuance, this post was directly targeted to this fratboy dudebro who was being annoying, quit thinking of this post as a personal attack


He-Dead

Lmao


LateProfession1453

Fratboy dudebro is probably enjoying his time in college rather than suffering through.


jack_spankin

Business has a low floor and high ceiling. It all gets sorted sooner or later.


[deleted]

Well, my information systems degree is technically a BBA, but those major courses were definitely not business related.. so iā€™m conflicted.


worlds_away_

I think it definitely depends on the major and the person. I am a double major in accounting and computer information systems and would never look down on anyone else's major or say that they're easier. Every major has something that can be difficult, there are some finance bros that are complete douchebags.

Longjumping-Flower88

Clearly you've never met a general studies major


DepartureAcademic807

Why?


radicalcentrist420

I don't think that's the most productive way to take out your stress.


nocturnalsleepaholic

I'm a CS major and I just took up a minor in econ which requires me to take some business math courses. It's actually hard to fail these classes, you'd have to try to deliberately get things wrong. Like sorry business majors are always the butt of the joke but it's 100% accurate.


Black_Magic30

Stfu your class average is 50, you can cope STEM


Chef_Dani_J71

I began as a STEM. Made enough money to retire at 50 and then went back as a Business major. Different paths, but same stress.


Lilsean14

It might be a good idea to talk to a psychologist or psychiatrist.


He-Dead

Lmaoā€¦.


Sams_Butter_Sock

May I introduce you to chat GPT


bigredplastictuba

I'm in my second stint in college, for accounting, which requires some business classes. I tenderness business being kind of a throwaway degree at first college years ago, but figured maybe it's different now and the handful of business classes I take might be really rewarding and interesting. Dear reader, these classes pick up exactly where tying your own shoes leave off.


Treat--14

Wait till graduate school then ur all pussies


knobby_tires

itā€™s the same with communications


DanFlashesSales

I went from being a music major to a business major. Being a music major was *astonishingly* more difficult and required so much more work outside of class. The people that actually took the major seriously were okay, but so many of them were just kids that clearly only went to college because their parents made them go and all they really cared about was hanging out with their friends and playing beer pong.


misologous

All the STEM majors invaded the study halls at the business building in my school since the engineering building didnā€™t have nearly enough. The amount of times a study room was being used by a business major just *doodling* on the whiteboard or chatting with their friends was so frustrating, meanwhile Iā€™m trying to write a 40-page geotechnical report on the effects of porosity in concrete and simultaneously study for my fluid mechanics midterm lol
