I’ll just say, I think Philosophy is a very useful degree for similar reasons to law (actually a lot of people who study philosophy in undergrad end up going into law). It also teaches you how to evaluate information and arguments in a rigorous way.
Yes I can confirm. Two degrees. Philosophy with concentration in morality, politica, law and digital strategy. Phil grads tend to score the highest on LSAT and college entrance tests. However, in my case, I’m not sure if I want to go to law school because I have a family/kid and I really value work life balance.
I did 2 degrees. First was Civil Engineering. Gave me a really nice insight into a lot of the societal infrastructure we have around us, but it's a field I didn't end up pursuing. I did work experience in it too, and it completely changed my academic discipline. That year of industry experience got me an award. My second degree, (combined) Nanotechnology and Renewable Energy. Best thing I ever did in my life holy shit. I loved every lecture of everything I learned and that's what I've used to get me into the field I'm in now! It's armed me with fantastic knowledge to see the future and even start my own ventures 👌
@robosing225, fortunately, education for immigrants in Europe is often free. As I know, in Ukraine if you pass exams successfully you could study mostly free (with some conditions).
I got a degree in English Literature and analysed many literary books. I used the knowledge for being an English teacher at 3 international schools in 2 countries. However, as basically studying at university changed the way I think, I get better at decision making in many aspects of life.
i’m an econ student at uni and i’ll be fully honest imo - studying economics independently is kinda pointless because everything is so theoretical, but if you combine it with something else such as finance, psychology, sociology and etc it becomes super useful
It’s useful if it’s part of your university’s business school for reputation and then getting internships before graduating. Without internships it’s not shit like most degrees

I love people who studies so many different degrees... I'm currently a business student with major in marketing (and this is just a start!) more degrees to come!
Currently taking an accounting degree. This course is so hard I can't even believe that some are becoming CPA-Lawyers. THAT'S 2 DIFFICULT DEGREES!!! HOW DO Y'ALL DO THAT?!
I've never really considered college, but you giving the upsides of having a law degree was pretty persuasive. Everything I struggle in you covered, like knowing how to synthesize information better.
I honestly think even as a minor psychology is amazing. It can teach you how to critically look at sources. How to properly write with more academic language. Teaches you about inequality and the psychology behind it. There’s a ton of statistics in this subject. My major is psych and it’s helped me a ton in history.
I'm in the middle of an education degree right now, and I find it genuinely shocking how much the stuff I'm learning has real, day to-day application. From am interpersonal communications class that has definitely made me a better listener to even the lowest level teaching profession class (pretty much an introduction to the degree) that taught me laws and the structure of a school system and included help on how to interact with staff, students, and their families. The part I don't get is why I need to study university level math and essay writing classes in order to teach 6-12 year olds. 😂
I’m a mere high school grad, but I think Economics is the most useful degree, on the condition, that’s all your doing WITH a concentration or specialty and stick with it at a high level. Basically, be at a high level niche (semi-pigeonholed), which can be said about a lot of majors and careers. • I plan to major in Quant Economics and Math, and Financial Engineering (or Computational Finance and Risk Management), to one day become a Quant Trader. Wherever large amounts of money is being dealt and technological-progressive, requires lots of knowledge and usefulness, you can make this a part of a lifestyle too. What I want to do is more on the hard/technical skill side using data sets and computer science. In most economics, the soft skill of decision making and understanding the task you completed is critical. • In my own research of economics, it has a lot of usefulness but I haven’t researched the other degrees named. I think the least usefulness comes from schools most likely using old/irrelevant texts/resources and most resources should be work based because the concept of the economy changes and definitely is different a decade ago especially with all these technological changes, people in economics soon realize that the job work and schooling is completely different. That’s why certain schools/programs base their programs off of the actual career work, or bring someone in from that career.
Hey there. I'm a financial engineering and econ minor at iit . The alma mater of Google's ceo. Considering you know this much at your age I would suggest you go for a circuital branch if you want to work as a quant in a buy side firm like Jane Street or tower research definitely go for data science or eecs. All they really care about is technical skill and you require little to no knowledge about finance/econ. Let me also add the fact the quant/algo trading is an extremely niche industry. They only hire from top unis in the region. Here in India they only hire people from iits that also from circuital majors like eecs , data science or maths and computation. While econ and financial engineering have fair amount of qaunt involved in it it's not as competitive as these majors. Also the seniors I know that got hired by top hft firms like hrt or js were extremely bright. They were either international math Olympiad qualifier or won some major hackathon so there technical skill was top notch. Meanwhile folks from my major were good they definitely weren't as good as them so they ended up working in sell side firma like jp Morgan or Goldman Sachs as a quants which is still a great job. A senior I am good friends with is working in tower research here in india. He makes loads and loads of money. He makes 100k in India which is like 500k in us. But the work hours are trash. He clocks in 90-110 hrs a week. Also the initial pay is no doubt the best in this industry the career growth is rather stagnant and there are almost no exit options as you don't develop any business skill while on the job. That's why I am going for consulting or investment banking as you develop real world business skills on the job and the exit options are amazing. I plan on working in VC after 2-3 yrs
@@creativedestroyer69 Thank you so much for this amazing insight. I will take note of what you said. I will see what my future entails when it gets to these special decision points in my life.
yeah take your time and then decide. Don't be fixated on a particular industry. Go for internships in different sectors and see which one you like and where you see yourself in short term or long term. Good luck
this thread is kinda interesting so I'm going to put my 2 cents (humbly), I also am majoring in Computational Finance, while I agree with everything you say, I think that this degree is actually quite good because it is versatile, many people who worked at prop firms and are fed up or have a big lump of money, tend to also go to the tech industry, they are highly sought after because of their analytical skills and their broad skill set(from computer science, math, econ, stats, finance) if you live in a developing country such as India i think the best option would be to find a fully remote job from Europe or USA, the pay will not be as great as Quant developers, but u still have great work life balance, with occasional night meeting (time zones). This tend to be difficult because you are competing internationally not locally however, if you are a Quant aspirant, you can probably learn stuff that aren't in your syllabus, most remote jobs are tech jobs. Software engineering isn't that hard compared to the stuff Quant student learn
It's somehow funny, i study economics right now (6th Semester) and i came to a similiar conclusion. I focus on 1. econometrics, 2. mathematics and 3. finance. I take many courses related to 1 and 2 and are working student based in jobs for 3. It's quite hard to teach yourself marhematics or econometrics on a high level, so i take university courses. At the other hand, finance in University is kind of a waste of time and better learned practically at a firm. I'm searching a new job right now in the field of data analytics or risk management. I worked in a student based job in the field of Controlling before
@@Gkdjd558 well if you’re paying for your own education it’s not a bad idea to wait until you know what you want to do before you go to school. But law school is extremely expensive and takes three years of your life assuming you’re full time. You shouldn’t be going to law school unless you are fully set on becoming a lawyer.
@@Gkdjd558I mean if your in Europe or places where college education is affordable than go for it. In the U.S law school will cost at least 100 grand and if you don’t know what you want to do the congratulations you just buried yourself in student loans for no good reason.
@@Gkdjd558aking a gap year is something lots of people do, and I don’t think its a bad choice. If you do I take a gap year I suggest having a plan for what you are going to do so you don’t end up directionless. Whether its finding a job or exploring something interesting to you. If you are unsure what you want to do you some schools might let you go in undecided. You could also pick something you think is interesting and then change majors if it isn’t working for you. You’d want to check to see if the school allows you to do this. To my understanding most American schools do, but can’t speak on the rest of the world. I’d say in college the goal should be to learn useful skills that will help you for the rest of your life, and become a well-rounded person if you have the time and resources. Reading, writing, thinking critically, problem solving, organization, collaboration with others, etc. if you can take classes that help you with these skills (philosophy, math, psychology, history, engineering if you go the stem route), then you’ll be well set up to be flexible in your life. Of course the other thing to consider is getting a degree that will help you get a job. Depending on your families economic situation this will be more or less important. If you need to make money in college or right out of college, I’d suggest going with a major that has job security if you can like Computer Science, Engineering, maybe even business as much as I hate to say it lol. If, on the other hand, you have a large safety net and your family has connections that could secure you a job, then you have more room to explore and maybe discover something that is more interesting to you, but not necessarily as directly marketable for jobs. Obviously this could be anything, but I am biased in suggesting something like Psychology, Philosophy, Math, History, Sociology, maybe even some of the more specific majors that deal with social issues. College is something that you should do for yourself! I suggest you approach it in a way that makes you feel like it is your decision so you can be fully on board. If you think college isn’t for you, trade schools or finding some sort of apprenticeship in a specific trade is a very real option that works for a lot of people and can secure you a well paying job! Plumbing, Electrician, whatever else. The biggest thing is to get out there and take ownership of your life! Do the best you can to consider your options and ask for guidance from those around you, then ultimately decide what it is YOU want and think would be best for YOU! I really hope this is helpful, and good luck! Edit: I’d like to add the caviat that this advice is coming from someone who went through the american system and I’ve ended up with a well paying job and financial security, but I also was very privileged to have a safety net and lots of financial support. So take that for what you will, there is always a chance that this advice might not apply to you depending on the specific country or financial situation you are in!! Many people, for example, have to work through college to pay for it or support their family, and this obviously complicates things quite a bit.
He probably went back to school because of all the money he's made allowing him to not end up in debt. Schools in the uk don't really give scholarships or financial aid to non uk students
Bro, you put them from least interesting to most, not by usefulness. Econ is so much more useful than Sociology (I studies both) and Business is just Economics from Wish.
the degrees that get you a job is the ones that teach u mostly useless difficult stuff like maths, physics and engineering. and the degrees that are actually useful in day to day life is usually the mickey mouse degrees like sociology etc that cant get you jobs.
Trust me no one is getting a corporate job studying pure theoretical sciences like physics except in teaching and so on, and for the job the university matters more, like an mba is the most useless degree unless it's from a good University then it's the most useful for a job
@@rahularora301 alot of physicists get into finance more than any other graduate due to their proficiency in maths. Some also get programming jobs with the amount of coding modules a physics degree has. It's not as theoretical as you think it is but at the end of the day you won't need most stuff you learnt from this degree
@@verrat3219eah those are external skills at least here, which are outside the realm of what they teach in physics, you could get a low to mid level job with the right skills, but the degree itself doesn't contribute, and i didnt mean just physics but all pure sciences. After all a specialist in computers would be more employable in computers than someone who had a few modules outside or inside of the course. Financial modelling although is requiring applied maths and statistics or econ-physics as the specialists than an average Joe in physics unless they are a PhD and well established in the academic world
@@catsexual3412 I have a maths and physics degree and the stuff I learnt was all useless in the real world. Never used anything I learnt in day to day life at all. I'm not saying these degrees are useless, im saying most of the stuff u learn in these degrees are useless. The degree itself gets you a job but most people I know, and including me hardly use the stuff we learnt in our jobs and basically forgotten most stuff cuz we never used it. So yes I believe even sociology is more useful in day to day life. But as a degree, obviously maths is more useful to get a job.

As someone with an Econ degree, I find it incredible useful and much more valuable than my peers with finance or business degrees. It taught me how to apply statistics into easy to consume text and speech formats, as well as teaching me to learn how markets interact with one another. Econ, very cool. Very good
you think you know how to read when you enter law school, and then you REALLY learn how to read. When a comma hidden in a stack of documents can be what makes or breaks a case, you need excellent reading comprehension to both spot the critical point in the relevant document and be able to argue why that is the critical point in the case.
Interesting... I feel like my economics degree has taught me a lot about consumer behavior, predicting financial markets and, well the economy itself. But admittedly a lot of the real world business stuff is learned in a post grad setting.
Bro i just realized that you are the guy in a video that your friends after graduated they were partying and stuff, but you worked hard and you made it

I honestly think even as a minor psychology is amazing. It can teach you how to critically look at sources. How to properly write with more academic language. Teaches you about inequality and the psychology behind it. There’s a ton of statistics in this subject. My major is psych and it’s helped me a ton in history.
Law teaches you sooo much about processing and questioning information
how to flex and self shame at the same time.
B. Tech Students : We did all of those things except btech 😅
I think it's cool how you look at the degrees in terms of the applicable skills you've learned rather than directly-related ones
I'm in the middle of an education degree right now, and I find it genuinely shocking how much the stuff I'm learning has real, day to-day application. From am interpersonal communications class that has definitely made me a better listener to even the lowest level teaching profession class (pretty much an introduction to the degree) that taught me laws and the structure of a school system and included help on how to interact with staff, students, and their families.
The part I don't get is why I need to study university level math and essay writing classes in order to teach 6-12 year olds. 😂
All Law students are natural CHADS
BTW I am a 1st year Law student 😅
How do you look so young and you’ve graduated 4 times!!!!😮😮😮 the stress alone would age me decades! Drop your skincare routine my guy 😂😂
I would love to hear your take on medicin vs law 👀
Bro collecting degrees like collecting the infinity stones😂
I’m a mere high school grad, but I think Economics is the most useful degree, on the condition, that’s all your doing WITH a concentration or specialty and stick with it at a high level. Basically, be at a high level niche (semi-pigeonholed), which can be said about a lot of majors and careers.
• I plan to major in Quant Economics and Math, and Financial Engineering (or Computational Finance and Risk Management), to one day become a Quant Trader. Wherever large amounts of money is being dealt and technological-progressive, requires lots of knowledge and usefulness, you can make this a part of a lifestyle too. What I want to do is more on the hard/technical skill side using data sets and computer science. In most economics, the soft skill of decision making and understanding the task you completed is critical.
• In my own research of economics, it has a lot of usefulness but I haven’t researched the other degrees named. I think the least usefulness comes from schools most likely using old/irrelevant texts/resources and most resources should be work based because the concept of the economy changes and definitely is different a decade ago especially with all these technological changes, people in economics soon realize that the job work and schooling is completely different. That’s why certain schools/programs base their programs off of the actual career work, or bring someone in from that career.
Hey there.
I'm a financial engineering and econ minor at iit . The alma mater of Google's ceo. Considering you know this much at your age I would suggest you go for a circuital branch if you want to work as a quant in a buy side firm like Jane Street or tower research definitely go for data science or eecs. All they really care about is technical skill and you require little to no knowledge about finance/econ.
Let me also add the fact the quant/algo trading is an extremely niche industry. They only hire from top unis in the region. Here in India they only hire people from iits that also from circuital majors like eecs , data science or maths and computation.
While econ and financial engineering have fair amount of qaunt involved in it it's not as competitive as these majors. Also the seniors I know that got hired by top hft firms like hrt or js were extremely bright. They were either international math Olympiad qualifier or won some major hackathon so there technical skill was top notch. Meanwhile folks from my major were good they definitely weren't as good as them so they ended up working in sell side firma like jp Morgan or Goldman Sachs as a quants which is still a great job.
A senior I am good friends with is working in tower research here in india. He makes loads and loads of money. He makes 100k in India which is like 500k in us. But the work hours are trash. He clocks in 90-110 hrs a week. Also the initial pay is no doubt the best in this industry the career growth is rather stagnant and there are almost no exit options as you don't develop any business skill while on the job.
That's why I am going for consulting or investment banking as you develop real world business skills on the job and the exit options are amazing.
I plan on working in VC after 2-3 yrs
@@creativedestroyer69 Thank you so much for this amazing insight. I will take note of what you said. I will see what my future entails when it gets to these special decision points in my life.
yeah take your time and then decide.
Don't be fixated on a particular industry. Go for internships in different sectors and see which one you like and where you see yourself in short term or long term.
Good luck
this thread is kinda interesting so I'm going to put my 2 cents (humbly), I also am majoring in Computational Finance, while I agree with everything you say, I think that this degree is actually quite good because it is versatile, many people who worked at prop firms and are fed up or have a big lump of money, tend to also go to the tech industry, they are highly sought after because of their analytical skills and their broad skill set(from computer science, math, econ, stats, finance)
if you live in a developing country such as India i think the best option would be to find a fully remote job from Europe or USA, the pay will not be as great as Quant developers, but u still have great work life balance, with occasional night meeting (time zones). This tend to be difficult because you are competing internationally not locally however, if you are a Quant aspirant, you can probably learn stuff that aren't in your syllabus, most remote jobs are tech jobs. Software engineering isn't that hard compared to the stuff Quant student learn
It's somehow funny, i study economics right now (6th Semester) and i came to a similiar conclusion. I focus on 1. econometrics, 2. mathematics and 3. finance. I take many courses related to 1 and 2 and are working student based in jobs for 3. It's quite hard to teach yourself marhematics or econometrics on a high level, so i take university courses. At the other hand, finance in University is kind of a waste of time and better learned practically at a firm. I'm searching a new job right now in the field of data analytics or risk management. I worked in a student based job in the field of Controlling before
Thanks man, you're a sign from the Lord to remind me I'm on a right path :)
The timer in degrees animation is just so creative 😮
I feel like engineering teaches you a lot about everything
Do not go to law school if you don’t know what you want to do with your life 😂
Do you mind telling me why? Everyone is saying just go to college right away even if you don’t know where your going (including my teacher)
I wanna know why too🫂
@@Gkdjd558 well if you’re paying for your own education it’s not a bad idea to wait until you know what you want to do before you go to school. But law school is extremely expensive and takes three years of your life assuming you’re full time. You shouldn’t be going to law school unless you are fully set on becoming a lawyer.
@@Gkdjd558I mean if your in Europe or places where college education is affordable than go for it. In the U.S law school will cost at least 100 grand and if you don’t know what you want to do the congratulations you just buried yourself in student loans for no good reason.
@@Gkdjd558aking a gap year is something lots of people do, and I don’t think its a bad choice. If you do I take a gap year I suggest having a plan for what you are going to do so you don’t end up directionless. Whether its finding a job or exploring something interesting to you.
If you are unsure what you want to do you some schools might let you go in undecided. You could also pick something you think is interesting and then change majors if it isn’t working for you. You’d want to check to see if the school allows you to do this. To my understanding most American schools do, but can’t speak on the rest of the world. I’d say in college the goal should be to learn useful skills that will help you for the rest of your life, and become a well-rounded person if you have the time and resources. Reading, writing, thinking critically, problem solving, organization, collaboration with others, etc. if you can take classes that help you with these skills (philosophy, math, psychology, history, engineering if you go the stem route), then you’ll be well set up to be flexible in your life.
Of course the other thing to consider is getting a degree that will help you get a job. Depending on your families economic situation this will be more or less important. If you need to make money in college or right out of college, I’d suggest going with a major that has job security if you can like Computer Science, Engineering, maybe even business as much as I hate to say it lol. If, on the other hand, you have a large safety net and your family has connections that could secure you a job, then you have more room to explore and maybe discover something that is more interesting to you, but not necessarily as directly marketable for jobs. Obviously this could be anything, but I am biased in suggesting something like Psychology, Philosophy, Math, History, Sociology, maybe even some of the more specific majors that deal with social issues.
College is something that you should do for yourself! I suggest you approach it in a way that makes you feel like it is your decision so you can be fully on board. If you think college isn’t for you, trade schools or finding some sort of apprenticeship in a specific trade is a very real option that works for a lot of people and can secure you a well paying job! Plumbing, Electrician, whatever else.
The biggest thing is to get out there and take ownership of your life! Do the best you can to consider your options and ask for guidance from those around you, then ultimately decide what it is YOU want and think would be best for YOU!
I really hope this is helpful, and good luck!
Edit: I’d like to add the caviat that this advice is coming from someone who went through the american system and I’ve ended up with a well paying job and financial security, but I also was very privileged to have a safety net and lots of financial support. So take that for what you will, there is always a chance that this advice might not apply to you depending on the specific country or financial situation you are in!! Many people, for example, have to work through college to pay for it or support their family, and this obviously complicates things quite a bit.
For the first time, someone says law is the best … thanks a lot … I have to share this video cause nobody knows what exactly we do … love you bro
With that video people still won't know... but now you have 1 person that says law is great... enjoy...
Asian parents: either doctor or engineering, law is safe zone, the rest is your last chance
you're so smart!
People in America are wondering how you got 4 degrees without being in debt up past your eyeballs
Instate and financial aid exist. It only sucks if your middle class tbh.
He probably went back to school because of all the money he's made allowing him to not end up in debt. Schools in the uk don't really give scholarships or financial aid to non uk students
@@coach.hybrid it was a joke... r/whoooosh much?
@jhonklan3794 it was literally a joke. I live in America and have a 100% scholarship. I just know lots of people that aren't so lucky
@@lcope2004🤓
Bro, you put them from least interesting to most, not by usefulness. Econ is so much more useful than Sociology (I studies both) and Business is just Economics from Wish.
Your comment on Business. Ouch
OMG. NO WONDER YOUR CONTENTS ARE SO GOOD! Keep 'em coming!
Ви - геніальна людина 🔥🔥
the degrees that get you a job is the ones that teach u mostly useless difficult stuff like maths, physics and engineering. and the degrees that are actually useful in day to day life is usually the mickey mouse degrees like sociology etc that cant get you jobs.
Trust me no one is getting a corporate job studying pure theoretical sciences like physics except in teaching and so on, and for the job the university matters more, like an mba is the most useless degree unless it's from a good University then it's the most useful for a job
@@rahularora301 alot of physicists get into finance more than any other graduate due to their proficiency in maths. Some also get programming jobs with the amount of coding modules a physics degree has. It's not as theoretical as you think it is but at the end of the day you won't need most stuff you learnt from this degree
@@verrat3219eah those are external skills at least here, which are outside the realm of what they teach in physics, you could get a low to mid level job with the right skills, but the degree itself doesn't contribute, and i didnt mean just physics but all pure sciences. After all a specialist in computers would be more employable in computers than someone who had a few modules outside or inside of the course. Financial modelling although is requiring applied maths and statistics or econ-physics as the specialists than an average Joe in physics unless they are a PhD and well established in the academic world
Mostly useless stuff like math? Hello? In what universe is sociology better than math
@@catsexual3412 I have a maths and physics degree and the stuff I learnt was all useless in the real world. Never used anything I learnt in day to day life at all. I'm not saying these degrees are useless, im saying most of the stuff u learn in these degrees are useless. The degree itself gets you a job but most people I know, and including me hardly use the stuff we learnt in our jobs and basically forgotten most stuff cuz we never used it. So yes I believe even sociology is more useful in day to day life. But as a degree, obviously maths is more useful to get a job.
As an Ukrainian, it’s nice to see an English speaking Ukrainian RUclipsr. I really like how you show support for Ukraine but don’t just use what’s happening for profit and views. Keep up the good work!
"don't use what's happening for profit and views"
...suuuure😅
@@MuxaLhey, I don't see any explicit references to it in most of his videos. It's just one thing that he supports, but doesn't super impose it on most videos.
Yes, I should definitely make my important life decision according to a short clip made by a youtuber
As someone with an Econ degree, I find it incredible useful and much more valuable than my peers with finance or business degrees. It taught me how to apply statistics into easy to consume text and speech formats, as well as teaching me to learn how markets interact with one another.
Econ, very cool. Very good
Blud needed a law degree to read 💀
?
you think you know how to read when you enter law school, and then you REALLY learn how to read. When a comma hidden in a stack of documents can be what makes or breaks a case, you need excellent reading comprehension to both spot the critical point in the relevant document and be able to argue why that is the critical point in the case.
Bro I want this guy to be my dad
Bro's collecting degrees like Thanos fr
You inspire me to not stop learning ❤
Heisenburg runs this comment section 🔥🔥🔥
*Berg. Burg means castle and Berg means Mountain
1 degree in physics is more impressive than the first 3 combined
Interesting... I feel like my economics degree has taught me a lot about consumer behavior, predicting financial markets and, well the economy itself. But admittedly a lot of the real world business stuff is learned in a post grad setting.
My heart just dropped. My semester of law university started this Monday, man, you got me some hope, thanks ❤!

Bro i just realized that you are the guy in a video that your friends after graduated they were partying and stuff, but you worked hard and you made it
This guys knowledge is explosive
Bros student debt must be crazzzyyy
Bros student loans have got to be crazy
Sociology over Econ ? Me being a business graduate , I would love to hear your opinion more detailed in a video . I’m a 4 year business graduate and I make a lot more money and have had a lot more opportunities then my peers who studied sociology after graduation . (Prestigious private college , business #1 major) .
For Americans who are confused, In Europe you can get go back to school and get multiple degrees because University is so much cheaper there.
Great advice.
Amazing how whatever these degrees helped you learn can now be learnt for free on Coursera in a few weeks.
Each of these degrees takes a minimum of 3 to 4 years. So thats pretty impressive
Pretty sure at least one or two are one year masters
Wow, you really like to learn. Please make some videos or shorts about learning, what you've found useful studying those specialties.
Congrats on finishing all 4 of them.
You know they're smart when they have enough degrees so they can rank them
He got the infinity stones.
thank you so much for this information
Bro found a way to flex his *four* degrees
just graduated with a law degree
You're a very smart man✨👍🏽
Bro ur amazing congrats🎉🎉
most subtle flex ever: "rating my university degrees"
The last sentence is very funny out of context for SMT fans 😂
Big up warwick !
Wow going into sociology for college and i get a lot of different opinions on it mostly being negative and its a relief to see that its up there on your most useful degrees
UA to UK sounds really onomatopoetic.
like u are saying if someone doesn't know what to do....but they still want to go to university they should do law
but in India if people don't know what to do they are advised to first do engineering degree then the can follow their passion if they want to........
Bwoahahahahhahaha
And that's the problem of Indian people's
Where the middle class thinks he will get rid of financial problems If he did eng.💀
But it doesn't makes sense
