Any degree harder than a pure Math degree?

[ctownballer04]

Imo there isn't, and the only degree I'd even consider as a serious consider would be physics.


What do you *******s think is the most difficult degree in undergrad?

You are going to have triplet girls

[ben918]

Accounting or history.

[MoYonas]

Astrophysics or engineering solely because they also include math.

[whitecollarcrim]

undergrad wise? geophysics IMHO.
graduate wise, pure math by a mile. hell physics is hard because of the math.

[JRJester]

Accounting or history.

lol'd. Accounting is a joke compared to math/science/engineering

[aal04]

Arts degree. Because its impossible to land a job afterwards

[DontDoItBrah]

IMO my upper level applied math courses were more difficult than the pure math ones.

[GaloisTheory]

IMO my upper level applied math courses were more difficult than the pure math ones.

wat?

Proofs not even once.

I've never struggled with the applied math, but abstract algebra turned killer with the proofs.

Physics is definitely a second close, though. What keeps me afloat is my genuine passion for the subject.

[MrVeggie]

all undergrad engineers are attention whores online and have a superiority complex especially on the misc

[BlueMoon92]

why brag about something being hard? my finance degree was easy and now I'm making bank lol umad!

[StevieMe]

Mechanics is the hardest thing I've ever studied, you'll find it in engi/math/physics degrees.

not sure if srs. you didn't do enough homework then. can't really study for pure math tbh. you need to actually think and be creative.

engineering is a TON of work man... don't criticize unless you've been there. you're legitimately depressed for 4 straight years.

All undergrad engineers are attention whores everywhere.

They always throw out the bullchit passing rates, but it's only so bad because complete idiots who've never even passed their high school math classes see the starting salary and thought it would be cool to "build stuff." which drops the average down a ton, not because it's impossibly difficult.

Applied courses especially in numerical analysis and Pde' s still include tons of proofs.

Applied mathematics is always easier because you have a point of reference. Personal experience: Differential equations in my physics/chemistry courses were always easier than in the differential equations course.


to the OP:


At some point, it is going to come down to how you approach things. Some people will struggle with the precision necessary and uncertainty of chemistry. Some people will struggle with the pure abstractness (if thats a word) of mathematics. Others cannot deal with how regimented engineering is. etc. etc. etc.

this. for the non-abstract mind, pure math is hell on earth. engineering is easy in a sense because you can actually visualize and make sense of it... however the workload is insane.

[MustardTiger17]

Nuclear physics sounds like it might be hard

[Bigdog314]

I had a roommate a year ago who was a double major in math and physics. He was a cocky little ****head but I couldnt ever call him dumb

[Noname95]

Aerospace engineering. Not even once.

Came to say Physics, but OP already kind of mentioned it.

Physics and a pure math degree are very similar EXCEPT: physics ALWAYS has to conform to boundary conditions, physical properties, conservation laws, etc. etc. Physics is math, except you use real world info to help solve problems. Another reason why physics is difficult to understand is that you often need approximations since many of the equations are unsolvable (outside of simulation). Knowing which approximations, which properties to use, etc. to simplify the problem is often pretty difficult. That "intuition" is hard to come by unless you have a firm understanding of the underlying concepts.

geophysics? There's only a handful of school that offer an undergrad degree. And I never assumed it was that difficult

Actually got the worst grade I ever received was in english 101. All the fuking grammar and strict ways of citing things got me. Obviously I didnt study or anything because I had real courses to worry about, but still.

if you have social anxiety and a typical F/A miscer, a communication degree would be the hardest

[ctownballer04]

Spoken like a true engineer lol.

Not hating on engineering but you really don't understand how difficult math is if you think the difficult part of a math degree is the calculus sequence + differential equations, which are the math classes the engineers take.


I'm primarily a Finance major and Economics minor, but now I'm doing a Math major too. I chose this for the challenge and honestly I may have goof'd. Proof writing is bullchit, intro to abstract algebra is the hardest class I've ever taken and it's not even close.


Applied Math is GOAT imo. Not nearly as difficult, make more money, doesn't turn brain into silly puddy.

if you have social anxiety and a typical F/A miscer, a communication degree would be the hardest

Legit Lold

[HtotheOV]

Math degree you can literally do anything.

finance/IB, computers, anything else...people good in math are just...smart..someone with a math degree can learn any job
