Going for a Mechanical Engineering major at the moment and enjoying it.

While I know it's important to take writing classes (and I enjoyed those back the day) it's annoying when most of my homework consists of:
solve a math problem
solve a physics problem
solve a chemistry problem
write a paper every three weeks

just kills the groove is all

Actually, it doesn't. Unless you're american and missed out A-level biology, because I'm finding it to be quite manageable.

Med major, and I have a list.

My work schedule moved from after school, to right around it. People in science labs who really don't care about doing anything right, accurate, or correct. And the "kids" who haven't hit the real world yet, and think that college is soooooooooo hard and unfair, but couldn't hold a real job if they tried.

I took Physics, Biology, Chemistry and English Language.

As much as I enjoy the subject of English, or used to, I hate the lesson now as one of my teachers is a zombie (not the good kind) with no personality and the people well, either I don't know them or they make me want to kill myself with boredom.

I was a mechatronics major, but now I'm an English major. I cannot stand chemistry at all nor math. Makes me wonder why I chose mechatronics in the first place... However, I also plan on minoring in history.

I'm majoring in Spanish International Trade. And I loathe my World Civilizations class because my teacher treats us like high school students. I mean, seriously, who paces up and down the aisles to make sure the class isn't texting or using facebook? It's crazy.

I'm a Computer Science major, and I absolutely hate how much math I have to take. I like math when I can apply it to computers, but most of the math I'm learning is stuff I'll never use again after the class. I will only use a small portion of what I'm learning, yet I still have to take the classes that give me a lot of useless stuff on top of the important stuff for my field. If only there was a way for me to learn just the stuff I need to know and am guaranteed to use.

I'm going for biochemistry, which basically means I'll be working for Big Pharma. Personally I can't stand physics.

I am a psychology major and honestly any other liberal art annoys me to death. Math and Sciences I am just fine with but I got stuck in an anthropology class and was never more than a hair away from walking out or killing myself during those hours.

I'm doing a joint degree in politics and international relations. However i'm thinking of transferring to single honours international relations. My uni specialises in joint degrees and was one of the first to do so.. or so they say...
At sixth form college i took philosophy, psychology and history as my main A Levels. AS human biology was pure evil and i felt really sorry for those taking it at A2.

My major is chemistry and my least favorite subject is calculus.

I want to be an evolutionary anthropologist.

I'm graduating this year in what my university calls Bioscience Engineering.
My major is agriculture/crop production, which I enjoy a lot, couldn't have picked anything better.
It's only a matter of time before I take over the world with my army of genetically engineered sabre-toothed tomatoes! WHAHAHAAA!!!

The class I hated the most had to be what they called Unit Operations in the Biological Industries. Everything you ever wanted to know about how to get your grains from point A to point B but never dared to ask... Yay...
Oh and since I attend a catholic university, I also had a class on religion. The class was OK, it even turned this die hard atheist agnostic, but I couldn't stand the professor. He was a misinformed hippy who loved to spread messages like 'farmers torture pigs for fun! Be a vegetarian!'.
What does that have to do with religion? I don't know either, it was a very bizarre class.

My major is Nursing, and my greatest obstacle so far has already beeen conquered. I had to take Sociology. The challenge was to not laugh during lectures. I swear, there's more bullshit in Sociology than a fucking cattle farm.
