which of these 3 subjects

[Alejandro Sosa]

Chemistry, civil engineering, economicswhich one at uni requires the most amount of commitment ? like which one has the most amount of hours of lectures in a week or essays u have to give in??, and vice versa, which ones have the least amounts of lessons etcwho on here does any of these subjects?obviously im gonna do my own research thought i would post here too

would it not depend on the specific uni's

[Supernova]

my cousin is 9-6 in lab monday-wednseday and has next lectures doing chemistry

yh but surely the same courses wont vary that much between diff. unis for example medicine you gotta do tonnes of work wherever u go

[BATTY BOY BUM BANDIT]

Economics is least time in uni for lectures and workload and sh*t (At mine anyway)The others you gotta be in like all the time.

you'd be suprised. My boy is doing the same course as me in another uni, his dissertation is 5000 mine is 15-20,000. he dont have to do cw's in final yr while i have to to do inbetween my diss.i s'pose. my money is on chemistry having the biggest workload

[A Bit Better]

I'd say Chemistry has the most hours because of labs. But I reckon Civil Eng is harder.

whats the difference between your unis? is one of them much better than the other or are they similar standard?

From what I've gathered I'd say do Economics.However, you'll probably have no idea what you wanna do after you've finished your course.

[A Bit Better]

If you have no idea what you wanna do after and you think you can do any of the 3 then don't do Economics. Both of the other two are better respected.Scientists are very employable.

[Dubby]

I swear Economics leaves your options more open though, so wouldn't that be the ideal thing to do when you don't know what you want?

[Gage]

Civil Engineering

Sciences leave your options more open. Everyone wants to employ scientists. Economics doesn't show as wide a skill set as Chem or any Eng.

[bladerunner]

Depends where you do Economics tbh.I'd rather do Econ @ LSE or Cambridge than Civil Eng/Chemistry anywhere else, especially as it's crazily maths-based anyway.If you have no interest in Chem/Civ Eng, I wouldn't do them either. Economics would probably be a lot more enjoyable for someone wanting carte blanche course wise.

[Miss Fozzie Bear]

Im doing Chemistry, doing labs on mondays half 9 til 4. Its like a school timetable all over again. Rest of the days are ridiculous. 2 of them im in 9 til 5/6. Cant say for the other two, but chemistry takes over your life. Its hectic, not only do you f*ck with maths, also physics. is expected though.

Chemistry and Enigineering.For engineering, you really have to get ready for thermodynamics, the extremely hard maths and control systems.

[Da Luv Doc]

DO NOT DO ECONOMICS, YOUR JOB PROSPECTS WILL BE HARDER.Also, get ready for a long time table with chemistry or Engineering!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[spiderman]

surely u shud pick the course that gives u the best job prospects/salaries & employabillity.nothings easy in life man, gotta just be ready for the workload and power thru.

[Doom]

Its all relative to your university.

[VENOM]

ur job prospects for civil engineering are gonna be sh*t as well. chemistry is the best out of the 3 jobs wise. economics is ok but you need to add stuff to it like do a masters in sutting very relevant to today's world. covil eng u will be an office bitch for time...theres too many civil engs for work available

Would rather do Civil Eng/Chemistry at UCL tbh (in terms of job prospects).

[n/a]

do the one where the aspects of the course intrests u the mosttbh in any of the subjects if you want to come out with a good gradeyou will have to work nuff hardand its easier to work hard/put the hours in on something u like/enjoy

[Grafter]

they are all pretty heftycivil engineering was basically 9-5 5 days a week add to that coursework for all 3 yearsplus sh*t load more exams than anyone elseout of all three i would choose this tho, but i am biased
