Study advice

[fjellape159]

Hi everyone,

 

I need advice on what to study, as at the moment I'm completely lost and have no idea where to even start.

So probably the most important thing.... I never liked math and was average at high school. But have always been good around computers. Had a good time at IT classes at school. I've worked as a computer technician for around 8 months and it was an interesting work experience that I really liked. Currently I'm studying Scandinavian languages and culture... which to say the least is... unsatisfying and boring. Math is the biggest problem for me. I'd love to study something relating to computers but all of the courses involve a lot of math that I know I won't be able to get through. I enjoy doing presentations and I'm not afraid of public speaking.

 

Anyways... just throwing something to somewhere.

You choose what you feel yourself proficient at. You do not need advice apparently, you must be decisive in such case.

A math major maybe.  Possibly a math professor.

@shiftberry Are you saying that I somehow know what to do but I'm indecisive?

@mkultra I get it's sarcasm. Good.

Computer with math? Maybe an accountant? I don't really know.

how about math history? Or famous math problems? Context can add greatly to the learning experience. Some of these people are pretty cool, galois dies in a duel at 20, he more or less is a founder of number theory, we study what he wrote down in his last moments on blood soaked paper...and mostly what he wrote before. There is a professor on YouTube i can link that has many videos i enjoy goes into great detail and yet has a very simple and elegant approach.

Just clearifying, you misunderstood the question. No offense of course!
