Bro, I’m a 4th year business admin student myself. How are you going to fail anything? Shit is easy as fuck, there is minimal studying involved. Brain dead retards take bus admin. The last two years I didn’t even buy the books, maybe I’m just a genius but it’s really not that hard. I only went to college because I needed the piece of paper for job advancement in my line of work. I could’ve taken anything I should’ve chosen history. Fuck.

I don't know how the exams are in the US but here in Germany they aren't easy as multiple choice. You have like 6 business case studies that you have to calculate and solve in 60 minutes and then an additional 15 theoretical questions. And you have to memorize like 30 different fucking formulas and learn a 600 page script. fml

The problem is that people like him think that 1000 level world survey courses for freshmen are the extent of history taught in college.

I got a 1st in my history BA, for what that's worth. You get that by slanting your analysis of sources in the way you want you to. Or by picking and writing on topics that suit such interpretation.

I'd also say that primary analysis, is much less present that it would have been 30-40 years ago. Most of the work, was reliant on secondary sources rather than primary focused, and I've no reason to suspect that this is different elsewhere to where I studied (maybe in at ivy leagues and what not, but for the most part it's secondary based).

Like I said though, you can still find that by going to societies that study materials or reading the source materials (old books) yourselves.

When did you start applying for internships? I started at 16. Learn some basic ass microsoft office skills and some shit-tier web development skills and apply for basic ass internships so you have a solid experiences/references for the future.

Don't be one of the retards that wait until they get a job/internship once they are 21 have gotten their degree.

A degree is like a cock, and work experience is like an ex-girlfriend. A new girl(employer) doesn't want to fuck a dude(employee) that is virgin(no internships/references) and only has a cock (degree). Girls(employers) want someone with experience(internships/references) and not just someone that has a cock(degree).

I have worked all kinds of jobs, the only reason I say it’s a meme degree is because it qualifies you for a wide variety of positions with absolutely no upward mobility. If you’re good at your job, you’ll never get promoted, if you’re shit at your job you’ll just get fired. The only way to win in that world is to be absolutely merciless, which I am not. I actually love working for FedEx after years of pencil pushing. It’s not great money or anything but I’m far from a poorfag and I don’t have to cold call niggers all day.
