Can graduate in Fall of 2006 if I work hard enough...might graduate in the Fall of 2007 if I decide to dual major in History. All at the Virginia Military Institute. Not sure what I'll do after that. Probably Human Resources.

          I really like the fact that taking psych courses, you inadvertently learn how to modify any personality test toward whatever outcome you desire.

          Even those really tricky ones...I think it's the MMPI.

            Going into my 3rd year. BS in Computer Science and Psychology (focusing on AI, or as my school calls it "Cognitive Science"), minor in Management and Technology.

            I overloaded the hell out of my schedule, and if I chose to I could graduate a full year early. I probably won't though

            I'm not sure where I'm going when I get out of college. My two main "dreams" are working for a gaming company (I've already made a few simple games with groups on campus), or doing research on Artificial Intelligence. I'm going to suck up to some professors next semester and try to get some research done while I'm at school.

            My school has some system where they pay for your graduate school if you become a teacher's assistant, and do research with a professor on a "professional level", whatever that means. I may take advantage of that. Only time will tell.

            I'm minoring in management to appease my mother, who hates that I'm majoring in Psychology. Maybe one day I'll get my MBA or something.
            Chalk it up to another Psych major!

              Psych does sound interesting. I've always wanted to minor in it, but we can't do that here. You have a degree course, and I can't do Economics and Psychology anywhere I wanted to go.

              After reading Complexity, AI looks really interesting too, but I don't have the computer skills for it. Some of it seemed so simple in theory, how to make a computer learn, but in practice it would take much more than I could do, computerwise.

              • I'm hoping to major in Math and Software Engineering - somewhat related to AI.

                  Makes sense in Sweden. Probably not in Israel.

                      One chick in my class went on to get a PhD in Biochemistry. Mickey Mouse to you perhaps?
