I am a student at Queens College. #career #career-choice #career-path #public-speaking #personal-development

I am a senior in high school and have thought a lot about what I want to go into when I go to college. I have thought about becoming a math teacher, physical therapist, or something involving computers. I have recently started tutoring a couple of students. They have been more successful in...

I'm looking at getting my PhD in mathematics and eventually teaching at a college level. It sounds like the perfect job: low stress, work with scholars and students passionate about the subject, continued study in the field of choice, and travel opportunities. I was wondering what some of the...

I have heard that graduate programs will first look at GPA, which will then remove the unqualified students. #graduate-school #college-admissions #masters #college-recruiting #graduate-recruitment #graduate-programs

I'll be starting my first CS class this coming semester and I'm just wondering if I would be fine in the class without any prior programming experience. #computer-science

I'm currently interested in majoring in both of them and am wondering how I would be able to mix the two of them. #college #computer-science #business #career #career-choice

I'm asking because I feel like I'll end up changing my career path if Im not motivated or enjoying my path enough. I would like to hear words from others to get an insight of what its really like in college. #college #career-choice

Thought it would be nice to study another subject along with my major #computer-science #undergraduate

In high school, my GPA was around a 3.3 unweighted and my SAT was a 1570/2400. Is it possible for me to get accepted into a top notch school such as Cornell and Carnegie Mellon? I'm currently at a community college and my GPA is a 4.0; I've competed in two hackathons (Will attend more) and won...

I want to start learning programming, but I'm not sure which language I should begin with. #programming

As the question states, I am a CS major who has little experience and has only done a few side projects that were not too advanced (in web dev and basic networking principles). I am trying to get an internship and I have been sending out resumes and going to career fairs, but most companies...

I am a senior in high school and will graduate from high school in a few weeks. This fall, I start college and will double-major in physics and astronomy. My ultimate goal is to earn a PhD in Theoretical Astrophysics. While an undergraduate, it is imperative for me to gain computer...

I am interested in the pursuing business in college and want to know if the major is required to get a job in business/marketing. #business #marketing

I read an old reddit AMA on it a couple months ago about a hardware engineer at
Intel and somebody brought up what they would need to receive his position. However,
he didn't give a straight answer so I would like to know what I have to do to be hired
into that job.

In other words, is it likely that I will have a choice as to where I want to work? I am aware that the STEM fields are in a period of growth, so more and more jobs are being created. I dread the thought of being stuck in a career that I do not enjoy, and would like to have the ability to work...
