I wasted all of my free electives on shitty science classes

   Back when I was going for BSN nursing major, I needed a bunch of bio science classes I don't need anymore so I used 23 of 26 free elective credits on Anatomy & Physiology 2 semesters, Organic & Biochemistry, Algebra, Lifespan Development (which was mildly interesting but shitty instructor), and Medical Terminology.
   
   All sciencey classes, some of em pretty hard (A&P is pretty brutal, O chem isn't exactly a breeze either especially with the worst professor on campus), algebra I'm not mad about because almost no majors DON'T require it, but psych doesn't I guess, and Lifespan is a class that should fulfill a major requirement but doesn't. Med Term was easy but useless even for my nursing courses.
   
   So now that I've switched majors I get a whole whopping ONE "fun" class (or 3 tiny ones) for my whole college career because I wasted all my other ones on hard and boring shit that I barely remember. FML

   Hard classes are worth it when you go looking for a job. Employers want hard skills, not a bunch of sociologists.
   
   I actually work with a sociology grad, lol.

   Besides picking the starving minds around here, why would you give up something you enjoy and seem to excel in?

   You mean nursing? I hate it, it's awful. I worked as an iad for 2 years and it was the worst time of my life by far.
