    I study physics. I'd only recommend it if you're really interested in learning about this field, and you're good with math. The best uni in Europe is probably Cambridge, regarding theoretical physics at least; there are good uni's in France also, you'll have to do some research though. There's a high demand on solid-state physicists, but other fields offer opportunities too: CERN, companies, medical physics, nano etc. This and med school are the 2 most difficult imo; there might be easier and more profitable opportunities elsewhere, it depends on what you're interested in, really.

    I've experienced similar breakdowns with Charlie. It's all in the game though, and life as a student is great

    Got my B.A in Psychology a couple of months ago, Iona College is a small school but it was a very pleasant experience. Psychology is a fascinating field and it definitely warped the way I view our world and especially the people that inhabit it. It's something that can be applied to a multitude of fields/studies so it was worth dedicating time to learn and if you enjoy being around people I highly recommend it. Truth be told I didn't fully invest all my energy and resources into pursuing a definite career in it, luckily I've found other opportunities but I do plan on heading back someday to pursue a career in Psychology.

    Chemistry needs a different way of thinking in general [but many things are common with (modern) physics, like the Compton effect, or the blackbody radiation, the nuclear forces etc].
    Well I used to s--- at math but now I can deal with pretty much everything, youjust have to be patient and work hard. Astronomy is an interesting field (idk much about the job opportunities though) and you learn a lot of things; the problem is that it's alredy at an advanced stage so we're kinda at a limit here, but it's ok. I guess it depends on your situation, you can start with what intrigues you the most and keep your eyes open for alternatives and you'll be fine.

    High School dropout but I plan on taking a test to get into uni or TAFE and studying something to do with music sometime next year. Don't have any passions really.

    was about to go for my bachelors in music production but in the middle of submitting forms for it I realized it probably isn't the best place to go for it $$$ wise, so for now it's on hold till I find a different college
