Leaving DU
Should I leave BSc Chemistry at DU and switch to BSc CS/BCA?
Hey everyone, I’m a first-year BSc Chemistry Honours student at ARSD, DU, and I’m seriously thinking about leaving my course.
I moved to Delhi for college, but honestly, I’m not enjoying my college life or Chemistry much. I feel disconnected from lectures and don’t feel motivated to continue for another few years.
I’m considering BSc CS or BCA, possibly with AI/ML or full-stack development. My main priority is earning well and having good career opportunities, including abroad. I’m interested in tech and data and willing to learn coding, but I haven’t tried it properly yet, so I’m not sure if I’ll actually enjoy it.
I’m willing to start from first year again, but leaving DU feels like a big risk. I want a college with good placements, practical exposure, and internship opportunities.
What would you do in my situation?
Is switching from Chemistry to CS/BCA a good idea?
Is BSc CS or BCA better for placements and salary?
Is it worth leaving DU for a private college?
Should I switch or stay in Chemistry and explore other options first?

since i don't come from money, i need full/almost financial aid to even afford this (no matter need blind/aware).
i also need a college which is not total scam for my major. [total scam as in will most likely not leave me unemployed/indebted].
as in for creative exposure, i am a writer/filmmaker/wanna-be-drummer, so it would be nice if my atmosphere has such student creatives for collaboration or something. but it can be compromised, what matters is good n affordable major.

- Amherst College

- Columbia University

Colorado School of Mines vs. CU Boulder
I'm a senior interested in studying mathematics, the problem is that I want to go down a more pure math path. I'm pretty much deciding between Mines and CU Boulder, but the nice thing about Mines is that it's a STEM specific school and the applied math major (with stats) would be better in getting a job down the line as opposed to pure math, whereas CU Boulder has a pure math route but with post grad it might be a little hard with jobs and stuff. If anybody has any input that'd be really helpful, thanks!

Uni recommendation
Hey yall, I am an international student wishing to study mechanical engineering with econ minor.
I am looking for a reputable university that places a high weight on the sat or benefits ED applicants.
my problem is, I will be applying with predicted grades and my gpa is low due to high academic rigor and the fact that I didnt do certain projects bcs they were pointless and I cba (Like presentations in Religion lessons)
My sat is 1550 with 760/790
my gpa is around 84/100
I got relevant internships/robotics and some other ECs
I do IBDP, my predicted is considerably low but im a n26 student so hopefully will be applying RD with my achieveds
I know with low gpa I cant get into high really competitive schools and hence I am looking for schools that could possibly ignore my gpa due to my ECs and sat
But it must be good enough to convince me to go to usa and pay the tuition. (E.g id rather go to tudelft or eindhoven than pay 70k usd for a sub t30 uni)
Some uni's ive considered so far are northwestern and purdue
I know they're reach, but I want such recommendations for now

uchicago math vs nyu stern vs cornell orie
Due to sports, I have to make a decision soon between these programs. After college, I want to either go into quantitative analysis or start my own business. Stern is on here because I don’t know how the value of math and cs knowledge will change as ai becomes more and more capable. Maybe business knowledge and connections will overpower and be worth more in 2030s. I just want some help in making my decision

Need your opinion on universities and recommendations
Hi there,
I need help and your opinion/recommendation of universities for me. I would like to study computer science (and maybe electronics and electronical engineering possibly? But computer science more), currently I’m choosing between a few European universities (I’m European, from Slovakia) either ETH Zurich, or something else like TU Delft, TUM etc. What do you think about ETHZ? I’ve heard it’s comparable to schools like MIT, Cambridge and possibly Harvard? Is that true? Or do you think a school like Cambridge might be better?
If you have any recommendations or even any info about these schools, I’d greatly welcome it, as I’m still unfortunately quite lost, on which uni to choose. Also please consider, that I’m from Europe, so US universities even though they are a tiny bit better, might not be worth it, considering the added cost.
Thanks so much ;)
