Nodnard did not say to throw everything out the window, they said to find what you like, and then narrow it down to what would look best.

Both Nodnard and Bluestar7 and originaloog are perfectly correct in what they said. Find something that interests you and is related to your major of choice. This will get you experience in the field that you will work full-time in a few years.

You should show some respect for those who obviously have more experience than you. You're trying to get into an Ivy, Nodnard is already in one. Learn to respect others for the wisdom they can share.

Woah this thread is still around....

And Reborn; I did follow Bluestar7 and originalloog's advice. Ive found a pretty good position which looks good on paper but also interests me a lot (I was never a fan of the "think green"). However if someone replies to my inquiry by calling me a 'whore' I feel that all respect goes out the window. I don't have to show you any respect if thats how you talk to me- no matter how valid your point is or how long you've been at an ivy. It's a two-way system.

Good to hear! I did get a little jumpy on respect, it's not my place.
