    How do you overcome parental favortism?

    Hi everyone, Has anyone here been the victim of parental favoritism as an adult? I am specifically talking about situations where one or both parents are convincingly giving one sibling special treatment (i.e. employment/career opportunities, monetary gain, etc.) over the other siblings. If so...

    Should I Quit School and Enter the Job Market?

    I just need something solid and fundamental to focus my attention on. Math/Physics does this, while Philosophy seems to have a lot of fluff that can be entirely opinion based most of the time, if not all the time. The logic courses in Philosophy were alright when I took them.

    Should I Quit School and Enter the Job Market?

    Yes it so happens that while I was still in the Philosophy program four years ago I enjoyed the logic-based courses the most. If I do re-enter the program I would take only those types of courses you mentioned.

    Should I Quit School and Enter the Job Market?

I can definitely move out now and manage some sort of basic existence for a while, but will certainly forfeit the degree at this point. correct, I have zero math/physics courses at...

    Should I Quit School and Enter the Job Market?

    Hello, I'm having a serious debate with myself as to whether or not I should continue going to University. Four years ago I was on the verge to complete a BA in Philosophy, but quit the program cold before entering my final semester (major motivational issues). I did some soul searching since...

    BA vs BSc in Physics: Pros & Cons

    Hello, I will be entering my first year as a Bsc physics student in January. I am wondering if I should switch to a regular BA to avoid a few chemistry courses I will need to take that come along with enrolling in a Bsc degree program. I have no interest in chemistry or anything other than...

    When do you begin to prove? which maths lead to proofs?

    Hi, Could someone please tell me at which point in learning maths do you begin to write and solve proofs? I have taken high school maths so far except for discrete math. If there is a list of different maths that lead up to proof writing, please let me know of them and in which order I...
