Je ris des gens qui font un diplome en ingénierie et en droit.
Y'a tellement de monde la dedans que le marché est complétement saturé
Bonne chance pour faire 50k par année lol.
I agree with this. The market is saturated with idiots from engineering that it drives down the salaries of everyone, including the smart and competent ones. Even my program director agreed when I got into this discussion with him.
Being an engineer back in the days meant something and had value, now any schmuck with a slight understanding of math and physics can get through with an excellent GPA of 2.0 and be branded an engineer.
All of my competent friends (GPA 3.5+) ended up getting jobs at 40-48k per year..... for a fucking engineering degree. One friend finished with great distinction (GPA 4.01) and is the one making 48k. I made more at Telus working as a sales rep.......
Its unbelievable how easy the tests are made nowadays and most students still end up failing and then the grades are curved and you end up with the same idiots that shouldnt be in engineering still in the program. And those students then flood the market.
Best example. Dynamics. everyone kept saying its one of the hardest courses in engineering, its very hard, bla bla bla. I ended up getting a B+ and only learned 4 out of 6 chapters for that class. I couldve easily gotten an A+ I just got lazy for the last 1/3 of the semester because of the high grades in the midterms and eventuality that my grade was going to be curved.....
The two midterms for the class, I had ended up top of a 120 student class. I shouldve gotten 70% in the first midterm but because more than half the class failed, grades were boosted and I got into the 90s. Imagine the line of the graph AT LEAST 20% lower...... Thats how the original grades were.
For the second test I got 84%. My grade was then boosted to 100. Once again, imagine the graph with around 20% less for all the grades.
How the fuck can they permit curving grades so much? is it not a possibility that MAYBE at least 50% of the class shouldnt have been allowed to pass, period? What if more than 50% of the class were all idiots?
Everyone wants to become something, but the school system has to understand that everyone cant be something. Theyve dumb down the difficulty of tests, so that most of the class passes but most of the class shouldnt be passing either way..... Because thats what the government wants, they want the students in and out asap and in the meantime the school wants as many students as possible as well. So you end up with a shit load of students with no skills or aptitudes to become an engineer getting pushed through the system asap and the school sucking up the $$$$ while at it.
