<p>What is MIS?
Also, what business major has lots of potential and doesn’t limit your career choice too much? i don’t think i cant handle 4 years of engineering school.</p>
<p>
I never said it wasn’t difficult or intellectually challenging. However, you did agree with my statement that the math isn’t hard in accounting. It is more comparable to law, which is hard for other reasons - sheer volume of information, innumerable interrelated codes and laws, etc.</p>

Isn’t VTBoy a stat major? :lol:</p>
<p>Statistics is a joke compared to calculus. I cannot believe you even say that it is almost as hard as calculus.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>The stat classes I have taken are nothing like the one his son has taken. Statistics is a very demanding major. Unlike CS it is actually very heavy in Multivariate Calculus.</p>
<p>

<p>Basic ******** statistics is, which is what his son took. Real statistics is challenging and requires an understanding of things like Multivariate Calculus, Linear Algebra, and Fourier Analysis. At the graduate level it is even more difficult with Real Analysis, Numerical Analysis, and Complex Analysis.</p>
<p>You seem to know a lot about the classes that other people have taken (people you never met) and the requirements of other schools. </p>
<p>This actually reminds me a bit of the “my dad is better than yours” conversations kids have. VTBoy’s major is clearly better than ours. :/</p>
<p>5.0 Mustang: MIS is Management Information Systems</p>
<p>Colin387 notes,“Statistics is a joke compared to calculus.”</p>
<p>Response: Why do people speak of what they don’t know. I took 4 semesters of Calculus and Differential Equasions. I also took several semesters of statistics. I can honestly say that the upper level statistic courses were every bit as difficult, if not more so, then the Calculus courses that I took. However, that is how I perceived them. Maybe others would have a different reaction.</p>
<p>thanks for hijacking my thread…</p>
