My Mathematics Major: Pure, Applied or Statistics? (1 Viewer)

[Studentleader]

I took academically rigourous subjects but I haven't touched programming at all. So I suppose, if it's the worst case scenario, it'll be like me being dumped into a painting class. This may not end well.

I did Ex2 Maths, Phys, Chem, Econs and I failed my first two programming units because I was lazy and getting 0 in a lab you spent 12 hours working on put me off it.

You got zero for something you worked for twelve hours on? Oh wow... at least you recovered, I think.

Got distinctions in both subjects when I repeated them - both had an average mark of a fail.

if you want to be useful to the world, pure.
if you want to be useful to a creative - fraudulent - accountant, statistics.
if you want to be useful to getting more people studying math, applied.

How about useful to the woman I love? =P
