Moving to education
« on: August 20, 2007, 07:47:25 PM »
Im doing a bachelor of science in physics and recently realised the jobs id get with this degree are high pressure and long hours. I decided to be lazy and switch the education so I will know the most in the room and will get heaps of holidays.

I imagined in like 15 years being all pissed off cause all I do is work - id rather make less money and get more out of life, especially if I have a family.

Now I need to figure out how to transfer...
i have a stationary fetish

What? No one told me that when I signed up! I'm not in it for the money though...

By the way, I thought education was all about long hours and high pressure, just less pay and less respect  :dunno:

Teaching in Aus can be pretty good - esp. if you work for a top school, rake in the cash.  But my girlfriend's mother was a teacher for like 20 years and fucking hated it by the end! She was working with small kids, a lot with mental health issues and other such things.  Being a high school teacher at some posh Sydney school probably wouldn't be too hard a life.

Oh yeah, by the way, I switched from Architecture to an interdisciplinary program with Architecture and Bio last year.  I think I want to go to grad school for either pharmacy or pharmacology.

Genetics, Physiology, European Cities in the 19th Century, Arch Drawing III, Chem Lab, and a Programming class; At least one campus job, track, and leadership positions in a club to raise awareness for North Korea and at my church.

No, not this semester.


Chris (or stealth), how hard is it to change your course in Australia?

Oh yeah, that too, but I'd included it in my head since that just happens when we're both at work late at night. :p
