Title: The Future
Description: What to do for college...


Lades - April 22, 2007 06:16 AM (GMT)
Well, with my future approaching, I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed. I plan to go into the Game industry, however, turns out all those wonderful degrees advertised everywhere on TV are pretty much un-acredited degrees worth toilet paper. So, I'll layout my plan.


My planned Degree - Computer Science/Math (Major/Minor, respectively)

Schools I'm looking at -

Francis Marion University - 1
Georgia Tech - 2
Local schools - L/R.


Any thought, suggestions, or better ideas at all. Hehe.

It's to late to recommend other schools, right?

Hmm, I don't know much about college, but I'd say...if it's anything like my bro's friend's class, you don't need to go to ever normal class, some are just review/clarification/etc, but the compy labs are absolutely vital. You should try to make it to every one.

Remembers a song about the future...

I've seen the future brother, it is murder.

How bout Virginia Tech? (Ok, I'm an asshole).

You're not an asshole. I lol'ed.


Recommending schools isn't out of the question, as long as they're not incredably expensive. I can transfer later if it's better.

ITT tech... or MIT, I'd choose MIT...

Lades - April 23, 2007 01:16 AM (GMT)
ITT degrees aren't accreditted degrees, and MIT too expensive, lol.

Evesgallion - April 23, 2007 01:20 AM (GMT)
Well... I'm goin to MIT... so :P...

Ya I know MIT is expensive, which is why I'm saving up now. I think you should try for something in between MIT and Virginia...

Esgalglinion - April 23, 2007 03:01 PM (GMT)
You should come to Sweden and study here. :3

Going as in already accepted, or going as in planning to attend?

I wish I didn't have to think about this yet. Everyone's after me for preparations, though. :/

Can't reccomend anything to you, sweetie, because I don't know anything about American universities, beyond Harvard and Yale. ... Don't know anything about Canadian universities, either, excluding the two here. :S

I hear 'dat. But have you ever thought about a super-microorganism?

EDIT-I think on deep shit, and come up with the toughest questions like this one.

Hrmmm....
I'd like to major in either Astrophysics, Applied Physics, or Astronomy.

As for colleges, there are a few I've looked at. I'd really like to go to CalTech, but unless I gets lots of scholarship money (My PSAT score does qualify me to possibly get National Merit Scholarship) it wont be an option till post grad.

Meanwhile, I'd like to go to Franklin W. Olin, or possible OSU or Wright State.

I want to major in law. I wanna be a lawyer. I've been thinking about UCONN and UM. Yes, you read correctly.

No suggestions for you, Lades. Sorry.

Until today, I had no idea "Olin" was actually "Franklin W. Olin" college.

That's just weird. It's like "John Harvard" college.

I hear you on the PSATs, I got mad high on the regs but a lil under 2k on the regs. Wa'nt a good day.

If they ever make an attourney game about you, I'll be the first to buy it.
