Title. Users here legitimately think that some people can effortlessly excel academically in STEM while partying all day but this is a BS cope. In computer science, electrical engineering, and other advanced engineering disciplines that heavily rely on advanced-level mathematics achieving top grades not only requires diligent practice but also a deep level of intuition and problem-solving skills.

Cscels in particular are exposed to complex algorithms, intricate coding languages, and challenging hardware design concepts. These subjects require countless hours of studying, coding practice, and experimentation. Simply put, there are no shortcuts to mastering these subjects..

Ive even seen high iq people struggle with the demanding course work, getting good in these degrees is not solely determined by raw intelligence but also by a strong work ethic, perseverance, and the ability to adapt to new and complex problems. Getting an A/A+ grade is very difficult in STEM degrees anyone who says they stidy just before thr exam and still get an A is lieing to you they most likely put in hundreds of hours of practice behind thr scenes..

Does your college have relative marking system. That shit can ruin your grades ngl. IITS have that and it’s pretty brutal.

im 24 been in college for years and have 2 years left, my brain is so destroyed. went to class yesterday and all the foids sat next to me and mirrored my subhuman kyphosis, as the teacher asked everyone to share i just left I couldnt handle the cortisol. I might just drop out, dark triadmaxx, fake sales experience as I'm extremely high trust

Very true. When I was doing my Computer Science degree I would study a lot (4-6 hours every single day) and could barely manage to get B+ grades or at most an A- grade. STEM majors are insanely hard, the workload can be very unmanageable at times. The dropout rate for these majors are also insanely high. The people who get As in these majors are usually NEETs who do nothing but study every single day.

I agree, I’m doing STEM right now and there’s no way you can get a solid grade without putting all your focus on your studies. I’m already running behind and it’s only been two weeks for me.

Accurate from what I've seen. The only ones who get As are the ones who just study all day.

@brutalbull, given your background as a programmer, what areas do you believe should be my primary focus? I'm currently in my second year of university. I have a solid grasp of data structures, object-oriented programming (OOP), and integrated development environments (IDEs). However, I find the compulsory electrical engineering and advanced mathematics courses at my university challenging. These include subjects like principles of communication, digital system design, microprocessors, calculus 3, differential equations, and discrete mathematics.

Humanities subjects are easy to get As in

But they have low standards

Both an incredibly good writer and a fairly good writer can get an A so they are not really differentiated

Ofc i do fag
Im a CS major and I cheat on every exam
I don’t know who you’re trying to impress, but this isn’t high school.
if you’re doing stem, you can’t just Google your question, and even if It come up, you have already spent at least 5 minutes, then.
- you have to memorise an insanely complex solution under 10 minutes,
- then spent another 5 trying to remember it and put it onto your paper

By the end of this ordeal, you’ve ONLY answered 1 question.

and you can’t go back to the toilet.


I haven’t even mentioned that most of the exams are open book, with 2 cheat sheets.

JFL

For my exams during the Covid era , I was required to set up cameras in both directions, showing my background and screen

Moreover, the examiner knew internally how many tabs l was using.

Not possible to cheat. They also made the exam twice difficult. On top of that, it's very hard to cheat on a real analysis / mech physics class. You would literally need a grad student next to you.

OP is right

If you are a STEM major

You can either have a shitty social life and good grades OR bad grades and good social life.

If you try the balance the two, you will most likely fuck up your grades and feel mentally exhausted.

It doesn't help the grades are curved. So the smart and hard working students ensure you cannot pass easily.

What is IE?

And these posts are making me feel better about my IQ. I was doing online school majoring in computer science and I dropped out after my second programming course. That shit was hard as fuck. I was definitely incapable of learning that just through online

However, I find the compulsory electrical engineering and advanced mathematics courses at my university challenging. These include subjects like principles of communication, digital system design, microprocessors, calculus 3, differential equations, and discrete mathematics.
If it's your second year and you have a solid grasp of OOP and DS then I'd highly recommend you start looking into what kind of development you want to do in the future, some examples of fields which are in high demand that you can start exploring are:

1. Web Development (Front-End or Back-End)
2. Mobile Development (Android or iOS)
3. Desktop App Development
4. AI/Machine Learning/Data Science
5. Games Development

Spend about an hour daily researching about the above fields, it should give you good insights about actual development in different fields. Your second year should ideally be spent doing this and once you've decided which field you want to pursue, start doing small projects in that specific field in your third year. This would help you get jobs once you graduate. Although I will say that you'd have to manage your time wisely while doing this, or your grades would end up declining if you spend too much time on this. As for advanced maths courses likes Cal 3 or discrete you should just do enough to pass them with good grades, as they don't matter as much after you graduate unless you decide to get into a very specifc field which involves a lot of math and statistics (e.g Data Science)

Industrial engineering. its a mix of business and engineering. its mostly making things as efficient as possible.


My dad is very skilled SWE and he made a business and was making 1m a year but taxes fucked him. He had an IQ of 155 at 18. it is a path that is mediocre unless you are incredible

STEM is as brutal as it gets. One of my EE courses had an A as 60% because of the curve. I remember the final exam taking me about 8 hours to complete. 80% of my class submitted it like two hours in because they just gave up. Shit was absolutely brutal. About 400 lines of MATLAB for that final. About to throw up thinking about it.

Yeah, at best, you would only pass the course. But this will come to bite your ass later.

Think of it like this. You cannot study real analysis 2 if you don't really know real analysis 1, or you cannot study Partial Differential Equations if you haven't studied Differential Equations well enough

It blows my mind that the foundation of basically the entire modern world is only truly understood by like 0.0001%. I've heard before that Civilization right now is extremely fragile and if some kind of disaster happened that destroyed everything we would have a very difficult time building it all back up , if we would even be able to do it at all. I've heard we would just revert back to ancient times or even hunter-gatherer

The thing is that no one person understands everything, in order to build it all back up you'd need the help of many. For instance, someone might be expert in Electrical engineering and another person might be an expert in Mechanical Engineering but even then the expert in EE is really an expert in only one subject pertaining to EE (Circuits for example) and the ME is just an expert in one subject as well (Thermodynamics for example). The modern world and its technology is too complex for any one person to understand it on a deep level.

That's why we need to spread the blackpill amongst STEMcels more than any other demographic
