[Hooahguy]

it seems as if the post count in this forum had gone down over the past few days. is it final season?
good luck everyone.... im taking mine in 2 weeks....

[Ibrahim]

hooah, of course its finals for many (I finished may 6)

[MarcusAureliusAntoninus]

The decrease in posts is probably partly due to the burst of activity following the v1.1 release finally fading away...

[Dhampir]

The Uni had finals last week. Of course, I audit so I didn't have to take any.

[craziii]

you know, there are players who finished school and a worker ant already :()

I gave my final on Monday - My 9th graders had write a brief essay on ideological conflict in the 20th century. Now its Xbox time in my classroom until Friday when school is out...! Oh you mean do people TAKE finals... Not give them... I am so old... Its hard to believe that I fought a war (chairborne), graduated from college, and started a family in this 00' decade, and yet now I am old....Oh well, at least I can buy Booze legally!

[Dhampir]

In about 10 years when I'm a doctor...then I'll give finals.

[Africanvs]

Last day of finals tomorrow. Booya!

[Emperor Burakuku]

[Maion Maroneios]

[Aaldaemon]

How I envy young'uns... I want finals season too. Oh wait... no never mind, AoC is launching in Europe this week, I don't want no stinking finals.

[Tellos Athenaios]

Finals? That's the moment when you have more time to waste time doing nothing, nothing and a bit less than nothing... Or play/mod EB.

[Mediolanicus]

27th May until 27th June.

I win

Finals? That's the moment when you have more time to waste time doing nothing, nothing and a bit less than nothing... Or play/mod EB.

But then again... apart from 2 very difficult exams (ruimtelijk bestuursrecht en zakenrecht, pretty much impossible to translate) for which I have very little time to learn, I completly agree with Tellos!

[Hooahguy]

ya.... so i was just wondering this because the movie competition thread is awfully empty of new replies....

[Mediolanicus]

Are you a law student too, perhaps?

[Nobo]

nope, international business

[Africanvs]

Ahhh, done till fall.

[Justinian II]

Ahhh, done till fall.

Done for good:-)

However, I had a rude awakening today, when I went job hunting and only realized that nobody has ANY use anymore for a B.A. in History.

*sighs*

[Africanvs]

Go for the PHD!

[Megas Methuselah]

What you did is vitally important in some respects. A lot of jobs only care that you got a good grade from a decent institution, but if you did History of Art, for example, you won't be taken all that seriously.

I did Law and Business Studies, which hasn't given me any trouble job-wise.

But most degrees aren't directly applicable to anything, unless you want to be a teacher. Unless you do want to be a teacher, don't bother with postgraduate qualifications, that's just piling even more debt on for no reward.

[craziii]

hmm, masters in CS + math got someone I know a 120k salary job. degrees do help, alot. there is really no need for PHD unless you wanna teach, do research etc. only exception is MBA? which you need to move up the corporate ladder right? it is useless really, but still required.

edit: having 2 related degrees will help you immensely, both in job availability + salary.

[Africanvs]

I want to teach university level history so PHD is my goal. :) At any rate history BA is a great degree, especially if you want to go on to law school. I just made myself drunk to celebrate the end of the semester and met a girl named Bella.... oooh my friends, I tell you...
