Last Saturday I finished my econometrics. Hooray, no more statistics for this undergrad! This Saturday I have my Managerial Accounting final which will nevertheless be tough as there is a huge amount of material to sift through and remember.

Two more semesters to go and barring any issues, should be graduating with a BSC in Econ and a Business Minor. See you next semester, thread!
Econ degree is a BA just FYI.

I've met some pretty strange ass doctors.

But clearly i meant in the business world, being an engineer and having no social skills can hurt you as working in an office is a social activity regardless of your job. It takes more than hard work sometimes to get ahead.

For example my cousin got his geology degree with decent marks, he almost dropped out his first year of University because he spent all his time partying and having fun etc. Now he makes north of 250K a year, has a huge house and lots of cars and has propelled his career through his social skills. He knows how to "work it".

I'm just saying that often times grades and hard work are only part of the equation.
