<p>magnetic: I’m as far from failing as possible. I just switched majors with 1 class left to go. The school doesn’t allow major switches of people who are failing, especially from a “soft science” to a “hard science”. No, I’m simply warning people of why they should not waste their time (like I did) learning nothing quantitative or useful.</p>
<p>What school did you go to? I don’t know any biology program that requires quantitative analysis, a year of p-chem (thermo, quantum, stat mech), inorganic, inorganic lab, organic mechanisms, computer programming, linear algebra, differential equations and several hard chemistry, physics or engineering electives. Even the chemistry department’s biology class (Chemical Biology here) is more rigorous and quantitative than the biology deparment’s. Don’t make jokes like “A bio major is the same as a chem major”.</p>
<p>L’Hopital: I have utmost respect for physics majors, as we only have to deal with 1 quarter of quantum mechanics, while physics majors deal with it for 1 whole year. Their experiments are also just as long as ours, but they have more math. I also have utmost respect for math, mathematical economics/finance, engineering, and other quantitative majors.</p>
