    I’m the second one. I’ve been studying physics for three years and it’s hard and I have no idea what kind of job this will lead me to. However nothing else is as facinating to me as physics so I would definitely do it again.

      I think many people miss the point of studying. A massive amount of companies/decently positions require you to have a degree, PREFERABLY in a related area but not necessarily. They basically want to make sure you can read, follow instructions etc.

      Of course if you want to work at the CERN you might want to know a thing or too about physics but other than that there is a decent amount of good paying jobs not related to your area that a mind like yours would have no problem in performing.

        And people don’t learn both of those things in high school or much earlier? Damn, the despicable GOP mission to dismantle the education system must be going much better than I thought 😮‍💨

        Well of course I’m not worried I won’t find a job at all but I’d prefer to find a job within my field of study. Working at CERN or ESA would be the dream but I’m definitely not counting on it.
