How much do you pay for your degree in technology?
-
I studied for free
-
I didn’t go to programming, I went to programs
-
I had a prof who would include stuff like this on exams to encourage people to go to class.
>on Tuesday the 15th of September how many students were in attendance
>select the answer given to you during seminar 7
>what nursery rhyme was part of the warm up
It was an interesting way to reward/penalize people when attendance was not mandatory but "recommended"-
Yeah my calc teacher did something like that also, each quiz he’d write down numbers on the blackboard and one of them would be just enter it so you always got at least one right if you bothered to go to class.
-
Your professor should unironically be fired for including those questions in the exams.
-
It was just 1 or 2 questions per exam not anything substantial
-
not the guy but he should still be fired. this has absolutely nothing to do with the exam and any points that are given for this question are unfair points
-
Hmm interesting. I personally didnt go to class and lost those points but at the time it seemed reasonable enough. A couple freebies if you show up and knowing you take a little hit if you don’t. In the grand scheme it didn’t affect much either way unless you were an edge case where its fair for that bit of effort to be the determining factor
-
but why would showing up to class matter? (in university). if you know your stuff you pass the test, why show up if you can learn better at home?
theres stuff where showing up is mandatory anyways, so why punish people for not showing up to non-essential classes?
just my take though-
Because some people are bitter cunts.

>i don’t care you know as much as the kid who got a 10, you were a naughty boy who didn’t come to class to listen a nursery rhyme so you only get an 8 >:(
Fuck you. The same in my University, you were allowed to take any final exam you can apply for even without joining a class for the subject, but you need a higher mark (8) than the ones who did so (6) to pass, because apparently you have to make up for the extra annoyances the class has, like assignments.

-
Woke af, onlineonlies get the rope
-
This just sounds like he was petty and pissy because people wouldn’t go to his class and wanted to find some way to penalize them even if they knew the course material perfectly.
-
what a bitch ass scrote jajajja. i rather retake the class the next semester
-
>questions about random IRL bullshit on exams
had a midterm where all 5, yes, 5, multiple choice questions each had 4 technically correct answers, one of which was spoken verbatim by the professor in the first week of the term
bonked it up because i am not a tape recorder. got 2/5 wrong, got a D letter grade overall because there’s only 5 freaking questionsreminder that college is a bullshit-resilience certification body, not education
-
My math professors just include material in lectures that aren’t in the textbook or notes and proceed to make it 90% of the exam content.
-
Yes, because I would remember how many students were in attendance at a random lecture. What an arsehole.

Just got my degree. Now how do I sneak into America and get a 6 figure diversity engineer job? That’s my american dream.
-
they let in all kinds of worthless brown filth so it should be fairly easy tbh
-
-
It’ll be like 600€ when I’m done, 5 and a half years of studying.
I’m gonna immigrate to the US with zero debt from my practically free socialism sponsored degree, make 150k a year and take your job. Seethe and cope.-
All that money you saved will go to waste. Becoming a US citizen the traditional way costs like $50k. Plus if you go to the ER that’s a $2000 bill even with insurance, that you have to pay for separately.

I’ll just marry some old gay man and get my free citizenship

I freaking hate this country, you’re welcome to have it

Sorry pal. If you’re white, good luck getting in
Its not too bad 14,000 for a BSc. Got the first year free and since I’m 1/36th Maori to a wealthy iwi(tribe) I’m gonna be getting a 2k scholarship and there are heaps of scholarships for Maori people in NZ. A student loan is interest free and I pay a fixed 12% of my income on it. I’m pretty sure I can get it down to 5K before I’m done with my degree.
How many white NZ take advantage of this? 1/36 is basically 0% when it comes to phenotypes. Is it like the US when whites stay their great great grandmother was a native
[…]
$0 since my parents paid for everything. I live in the US btw
-
>How many white NZ take advantage of this?
A lot actually basically anyone can take advantage of it if your family has kept some sort of lineage. Most people are at least some part Maori but you need to be registered to be able to claim most of them.
>Is it like the US when whites stay their great great grandmother was a native
Yea but at this point, there are so few full-blooded Maoris that they gave up and said that if at least one of your ancestors was Maori you can claim to be one. My grandfather is a massive racist towards Maoris and will call any Tā moko(Maori face tats) an "Ugly sis" he still claims 3K from the tribe every year tho.-
Pretty woke af

>150k a year
>he thinks that is good or enough
I know truck drivers who make that much
you’re out of touch with American wages and American cost of living. You can make more money in the USA as a plumber.-
US median personal income is $35,805
it includes anyone that has earned an income in the united state 15 years old and over beginning with March 1980, and people 14 years old and over as of March of the following year for previous years.-
Poverty line in the USA is 18k a year.
Cost of living was already outrageous, it has gotten much worse in the last couple years. I’ll say it again, I know truckers that make 150k and you can make more as a plumber in the USA than you’ll be able to with your degree.Is that your argument?
-
Truckers make a decent amount of money, but they spend a lot on repairs, gas and they basically don’t have a life.

70.23% of the country earns less than $50k
42.87% of the country earns less than $25k
20% are between $10,000 and $24,999

>tfw I realize I’m in the top 9% of wage slaves
-
-
Yeah you can make that much working 70 hours a freaking week as a trucker. And only a plumber in like nyc or la, and trust me you do not want to be a plumber there.
-
No they work about 50 hours a week hauling carbon for filtration systems for water plants.
The plumbers i know live and work out in BFE and they make over 100k a year. In an actually populated area there’s more money to be made. Rotorooter apprentice plumber types start at 80k a year.
Techies always get butt hurt tradies make more money.-
Unless you are your own company in a populated area you’re not making much as a plumber
And again unless you have 10+ years experience as a trucker you’re barely making 50k a year entry level working more than 40 hours a week-
Plumbers are independent contractors they’re not wagies so in a sense they own their own company.
HVAC
Ummmmmm? Sweaty?
Is this a new meme or are you esl?
Google the word average btw-
Yeah average. The sum of all truckers divided by that number. And median, half make less than that and half make more. Sorry your trucker making big buxxxx narrative fails with a Google search
-
He’s just a cunt who knows 1 guy with a great gig. UPS OTR drivers can earn that 150k mark too
-
-
I know you’re trolling at this point but here’s the numbers for anyone that’s curious.
https://www.bls.gov/ooh/transportation-and-material-moving/heavy-and-tractor-trailer-truck-drivers.htm -
Why aren’t you a plumber then? Let me guess you make so much money as an AC guy.
-
By the sound of it you’d be surprised.
-
>I’m just going to keep posting anecdotal claims with no proof, make shit up then screech how proud I am as a tradie
I make more than you.-
You might and that’s cool, you do you.
Doesn’t make any of my points any less real. -
No

Forgot to say. Some years back there was too many cdl carrying people but nowadays not many have clean records or can pass a drug test. So yea straight out you can make over 80k otr trucking. 50k is what you’ll make going for the low end of distribution companies, even coke and Pepsi drivers make more.
-
-
I’m going to guess wagie, not a plumber or any trade, bur works in retail. Because every retail job has that one guy who thinks _____ trade will make him rich but he has done nothing to get into it.
-
Ummmmmm? Sweaty?

average != median.
Google the median and you will see a reasonable dropoff-
I did Google the median. That shows the median and the average. Are you all freaking scrotebrained here?

It was free. But I am sure as fuck paying back now with my taxes as a productuve member of society. So it wasn’t free after all.

4 years of my life fighting for ZOG minus the stipend.

I pay like 600€ a year. This mostly covers the cost of administration and library. When you self-study, it is almost free.

I knew a girl who went to a private high school that costed more than that; in 2009 dollars. -
>American University is cheaper than my 3rd world uni
-
I’m doing an online degree part-time while working a webdev job. The government has paid all the fees so far, but my income has increased just past a threshold, so I’ll probably need to cover the last ~£1500.
I was slightly kicking myself for not getting it done faster to avoid that, but then I remember how fortunate I am-
>Online bachelor’s degrees cost between $38,496 and $60,593 on average, according to U.S. News data.
lmao
(If I’d went to an actual physical uni instead, it would be free with no caveats.) -
degree?
-
Oh hey my professor used kahoot as well. He gave us questions related to what we covered in the last 3 hours though. If you used your student ID as your username you got bonus points woke af on how you scored.
-
Exactly zero pesos. I do a mid-tier donation to me uni monthly tho, dunno how many other students do so but I can’t complain.
-
I got a ton of scholarship money just for being black in the stem field.
-
Wait, you guys aren’t getting PAID to go to uni? I got 4k over last years costs so I made 4k that year. This year I think I’ll make 6k.
-
goberment pays mine, but that’s the end of story. Still not a bad deal imo
-
I do, it’s not a lot but it at least keeps my fuel tank full. I won’t complain since uni is "free" as in free beer.
-
-
They give me $1500 a month to go to school.
-
I got paid to go because my parents were unemployed. It still feels like a massive waste.
-
>spent 4 years and $40k on bachelor’s degree
>ended up getting a job for high school drop outs
It pays the bills I guess but goddamn if I had known it would end up like this I would have skipped the university meme.-
What degree? What job?
-
Applied math
Military, enlisted. They didn’t take me in as an officer when I applied and I became homeless so I applied for enlisted.

2k euro a year for university.
-
Wtf this is close to what I pay for 1 semester in Canada being a Canadian.
-
-
Have around 65 credits completed and I’ve paid about $400 out of pocket so far. Will probably be able to finish my whole degree for less than $2k out of pocket.
-
I’m poor as fuck so taxpayers covered the whole thing via pell grants over ~5 years, about 30k in tuition for a bachelors in computer science.
-
I only got siemens cnc/sinumerik certs, cost me couple hundred bucks total.
-
can’t believe i’m the only one actually paying for this shit
it’s at least worth it since my university has good name recognition in the field -
Nothing, I don’t live in a shithole.
I actually got paid for learning my degree since I did well. -
my uni was free
imagine paying for uni-
i want to stick my dick in it

u r a scrote :————–pppppppppp

I didn’t get a degree and I out earn probably 90% of grads.

Education is a complete joke
way over half of class time is filler just so people have to study more time
you get so busy with filler you don’t even have time to learn relevant shit by yourself and in the end you made hundreds of essays and math operations but didn’t learn anything that you actually need to make money -
>paying for gnomish brainwash
Never gonna make it. -
I think my BSEE was like $30k all said and done from an in state public uni. Not factoring in books and stuff, but I lived at home so saved a lot of money on room and board. That also includes a couple years at a community college for the gen eds and then transferred the credits to a 4 year university. It’s going on 10 years since I graduated too so this was a while back. Parents paid for every penny kek, come at me.
-
Hey. I started college late and by the looks of it will finish by 27/28. Will having a degree but just starting my career at that age put me at a disadvantage compared to a 22yr old with a degree? I have no jon experience or anything.
-
Yes 22 with a degree and no experience is better than 28 with a degree and no experience but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t get one
-
But by how much? I feel like it’s going to be too late to start college and by the time I’m finished it would be impossible for a 28yr old without a job experience to find a job. I also want to get settled and have a fmaily by 30 with a girl my age or slightly older. I feel like a lost cause at this point. I might just go to trades.

Do not get a degree. You want to do IT. Get an A+ and netplus cert. Lie and say you used to fix computers as a side job , that you know how to build a PC and troubleshoot (better be true). and you know how to reset passwords in AD(watch YouTube). We hire people for it work all the time without college. If you say shit like that you get the job. I sit in on all the interviews, I have seen it all . All my boss cares about is knowledge and experience. Believe me, college scrotes many times even with an "it degree" Don’t know shit.

School is free in the US. Its just that most anons refuse to join the military so they don’t get free school.
That said, my math degree is worthless. I got an it job after getting my A+ cert. Now I’m a network tech. College is a meme for wen and poc.-

I paid a grand total of $2800 for 2 years of education to get a Diploma.
Its been invaluable in every respect.t. Australia, TAFE, pre covid.
-
Believe it or not. That is about what it costs in the US at a community college.
-
TAFE is Australian community college.
But we have a higher respect for it than the US it seems.-
Its not that bad here. College is very affordable if you are not a scrotebrain. My college was free because I’m a vet. But even I did two years at a community college before transferring to state.
Many smart people who pay off there college with ease do 2 years at a community college, then transfer to state, and only have to pay for two years of expensive school. Student loan cucks did 4 years at a state school for an English degree. Its freaking scrotebrained, but for some reason encouraged. Dispite doing 2 years at a state school instead of 4 doesn’t change the value of your degree.

I live in Texas. Blinn in my area only costs 3k for a full year.

$3K for a full year is still not $2800 for 2 years.

Happy to see I’m not the only one who gets paid to go to uni. Neurotypical taxpayers pay the toll
-
Around 100k out of state including room and board. Paid for itself already after 1 year at FAANG.
-
Nothing, went to community college with the tuition trust fund for EET
I regret nothing -
-
The degree isn’t about learning, it’s about the certification.
-
in contrast with other professions like law, medicine and accounting where you need a license to exercise the profession, computer engineers don’t need a license to use a computer. Computer engineering is a craftsmanship profession where the merit is all that matters, they are closer to a painter or a carpenter than to a doctor or chemist.

I had scholarships that paid for my undergrad, summer internships that paid quite well and my current employer paid for my masters. So about -$80k?

>something goofy happens in class
>OMG I PAY A BAJILLION DOLLARS FOR THIS WHY IS EVERY SECOND OF EVERY DAY NOT FILLED WITH COMPLETELY SERIOUS COURSE MATERIAL -
Not a damn thing. Cause I didn’t bother with college. I entered the work force right outta high school and never looked back. Landed a state govt job after trying my hand in the private sector. Fast forward to today. Ten years till full retirement is an option for me. Can walk out in 2031 drawing a pension for life along with a nice fat 401k on the side. (I’d be 48). Or I can work till I max out my pension and walk at age 54. Up to me. Still better than slaving away till I’m 65. Job titles mean shit, the job you do means shit. Getting the fuck out and enjoying life as soon as you can should be the number one goal long as you don’t fuck yourself doing it. People rag on the military. But name another option that lets you retire after 20 years, other than police or firefighter?. Enter after high school, walk out before your 40 setup pretty sweet if you manage your money right along the way. (aka take all the perks they give out)

I retired at 26 after 3 years of college and 5 years working a tech job.

I’m a 30 year old loser neet so the government actually pays me to go to school I get like 3k a month in financial aid and that’s after my school takes out its costs.
-
the fuck, what is giving you 3k a month?
pell grant caps out at $6,495 per year for 6 years and FSEOG is $4,000 per year
do you have scholarships or something too?-
Idk they just give it to me
-

i think this is a larp, unless you are native american

30k in loans. paid it off in like 2.5 years. Sticker price was $70k/year

How does it feel to live in a late capitalist shithole?-

>severe pressure to find a job gets exploited by companies
>take unpaid internship just to get into a company
>pay copious amounts of interest on top of the debt
>be financially hamstrung for a years
>if you fuck up and go bankrupt you’ll still owe the money even after you went through bankruptcy
Is the same as
>go to university for free
>pay taxes later
-
-
>late capitalist
this expression is being used since the 80s-
It’s woke af on Marx’ idea of the final stages of capitalism, where more and more wealth gets consolidated into fewer and fewer hands. I’d say that’s actually the direction in which stuff is moving, even if slowly. Home ownership goes down, GDP goes up, wages stay stagnant, profits flow to the top. Most of the population don’t have savings. Everything they earn gets instantly pumped back into the economy to keep the capitalism machine pumping.
