Anyone feeling like university is kind of pointless and depressing nowadays? The degree is so widely owned by everyone, even courses like CS/Law/Biz are heavily saturated. How does one prove themselve different? Other than the class toppers, it seems like everyone else is just coasting and trying to survive
Somewhere along the line it just feel like theres no reason anymore, why am I studying for this degree? I chose it, but do I really like it or did I do it because it was traditionally " right "? It doesnt even seem like this will get me far, and if it does get me far theres always someone going further
When I see people "colouring books" and realise I will probably end up in the same jobs as them for a course syllabus 10x as hard and 10x as painful just because of something called socialising, university seems like a socialising corner for young adults to make friends, which is kind of tough when some courses have you being so busy and stressed everyday
Looking at a path to being glued to a chair all day every day for the rest of my life for a traditional asian successful life with decent income, or choose an easier more varied life for the tradeoff of less income, genuinely how do yall stay motivated or have the will to keep going?
