If you already graduated what do you do now? Do you work, attend graduate school? Changed fields to a new study?
I am looking for people that already graduated to post in this thread too. There are too many 18-22 year olds that tend to pollute these discussions.

How mich money did they make you pay to learn fucking excel?
Hunter Ramirez
MatSci (either major or a minor with MechE major) or EnviroE

pretty much every uni has this format for the .net

Originally majored in EE, then added physics double major which later turned into a minor because I didn't want to spend a 5th year at my shite midwest flyover uni.
Chose EE because they seemed to have rad jobs and I thought the electronics, circuits, etc would be cool to know for everyday applications of making projects at my house. DESU I didn't really know what it was all about, I hadn't even built an actual circuit, used a breadboard, or coded in my life until sophomore year of uni.
After undergrad went on to a top 5 grad school in my specialization (optics/photonics,etc) for an MS. Felt a slight urge to go straight for a PhD, but didn't have enough experience in the research side to know for sure. Graduated earlier this year. Applied to a few schools for PhD. Didn't get accepted to my dream school (MIT), but got into second choice, a top 10 uni worldwide that is in Europe. Leaving for there soon and after thinking it through I think this place would be better anyways just for how wonderful the location is, and because the PhD is a little shorter there (3-5 years vs 4-6)

Stats, finished phd, working. Initially found it appealing in undergrad because it let me solve problems w/o closed-form solutions, and I like finding patterns in things.
Eventually you figure out that all research projects feature a separate methodological dimension where you dictate essentially everything. This, coupled with the fact that your concerns are fundamentally epistemological in nature, means that you always get to contribute meaningfully and are taken seriously (because epistemological concerns are superordinate to essentially everything else).

Biochemistry Attending grad school in fall Changed from BME
For me, i was not limited financially, and was in 0 debt, so decided to pursue something of personal interest. I love chemistry but tend to be bored with it without a living application, so biochemistry is perfect. I know from working retail many years that research environment would work for me, and my undergrad experience solidified my interest in the subject. Feel free to ask me anything i guess, dont know what you want to hear
