course stereotypes

[Mulan]

is this true?
if you enjoy bio do med, physics do engineering/architecture, maths be a mathematician, business management is commerce, chemistry do pharmacy/science course, english do law and history is arts?

[IntoTheNewWorld]

More accurate is if you're Asian do med.

[EvangelionZeta]

English and History both fall under Arts.

[minilunchbox]

I can't really see someone who loathes maths becoming a mathematician.

listen to what SmRandmAzn said, if you don't get into med then you're a fail azn.

lol jk, on a more serious note, if you're good at maths the physics is not a bad choice either (mathematical physics), if you are good at maths then commerce is another good choice, some really good maths subjects in commerce.

[jimmy999]

Given that all those degrees are based on those subjects, then there's nothing wrong with the stereotyping.

I'm a maths/science person who was never any good at English. Anyone who knew me would be certain that I would never do arts and/or law.

[Fyrefly]

More accurate is if you're Asian do med.

And if you're not smart enough for med, do commerce.

[vexx]

More accurate is if you're Asian do med.

And if you are not asian, than you can struggle with getting in

yeah cos... i'd totally be getting into med with ease if i were azn...

[Gloamglozer]

More accurate is if you're Asian do med.

And if you're not smart enough for med, do commerce.

And if you're not smart enough to do either med or commerce, do just plain science.  And if you not smart enough to do med, commerce or science, do an arts degree - just for the sake of going to uni (or maybe just for the sake of getting tertiary education since you barely have any contact hours to begin with).

On a more serious note and going back on topic, VCE is completely different from uni.  As Mao and shinny have said, at uni you learn for the sake of learning.  If you have found your interests then pursue them because if you don't, you'll regret it for a long time coming.  I can't remember who said it but a saying goes something along the lines of:

"If you enjoy work, you'll never have to work a day in your life again."

[Visionz]

If youve got a high opinion of yourself do law.

If youre a hippie do arts.

If youre asian go to monash or UoM at all costs.

LOL.
hmmm well i like maths but absolutely HATED accounting (simple maths, no.s you have to squeeze into little boxes and tables...FRUSTRATING). so definitely not doing commerce XD
im shy and find english just plain boring...you aint looking at the future lawyer

chem is just confusing...well yr 10 chem?
and bio is really interesting and i wanna be rich..and im asian

 Wat about science....NO WAY, i daydream during science :O
So looks like im gonna grow up old living with cats and hating children
 *SOBS*

Engineering isn't just for guys. If you're a girl and you do it, they throw a lot of money at you, so I've heard.
