Which STEM degree is the best one?

Computer Science

This. Doesn't matter how much you get paid if you end up killing yourself.

You shouldn't be going to classes anyway. Get a job and just study for your exams.

Physics because real world application of math, Plus an easy coding transition.

Double major in physics and math.

Why?

This is very important, I almost commuted seaside in biochem.
Even if you start late it's fine. Just don't be a lazy prick and git gud

any applied science/applied math/statistics/ comp sci.

things that involve heavy application and model building, very little theory and intellectual-masturbation.

>physics/chem/bio are garbage unless they are "applied" and specialized degrees. like pharma for chemistry is fine. nuclear for physics is okay.

Math is without a doubt the most patrician subject. You know this to be true deep down.
