Reps: 153,685 (power: 165) | | I'm studying electronics, physics, mathematics, computer programming...
I agree biology is really interesting, but it's true that when studying it you just have to remember things a lot and understand a little.  So I prefered mathematics, because I like that sort of thinking... But studying in France, and not being a maths genius, I didn't want to be a teacher so I'm going to be an engineer... and by fate, I arrived in an electronics school...  What i prefer is quantum physics...  That's absolutely amazing...  Sometimes I stand in awe before what i discover (during lessons...). And there are links with linear algebra, which is my favorite subject in math.

Reps: 2,063 (power: 12) | | I majored in Geology in college. As part of my requirements, I had to take biology, chemistry and physics, and I took astronomy for fun.
I enjoy science. |

Reps: 10 (power: 0) | | | I'm a biology major, so I've had quite a few sciences courses. But then again, I have been known to read psychology and biology textbooks for fun... |

Reps: 1,621,311,304 (power: 1,621,320) | | Umm.. when you said study, studied, did you mean at a college level? Cuz err, at the moment, I'm just finishing High school, so I've done upper school Chemistry and Phys. Year 12 TEE Physics at them moment, just started on the last topic before final exams, Atomic Physics. But I found that sound was a great topic, particularly when I'm a musician and it helped me with TEE music as well.  (eg, harmonics and the strings, open pipes and closed pipes, as well as the accoustics and the way in which an orchestra is set up -difference in noise (untuned percussion) and music (tuned percussion and all the other instruments)). I find that having done physics has helped me to understand and appreciate this world we live in the more I hear and learn about it. |  | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode | | | |
