Yeah for the most part medical is important

I was thinking more of Computer Sciences

Really

How do you expect to work as a computer scientist if you know fuck all about computers?

?

You said they don't care about degrees

You don't have to go to college to learn coding

You don't just learn coding :V

Why not?

Because there's more to a computer than code

I imagine you'd learn how the fucking thing works in the first place

What all the parts do etc

Probably how to fix them or something

All of that can be learned on your own

Well in theory so can anything else

Not saying it's easy cuz it's very hard

Yeh so for the more difficult subjects it's probably better to get a degree

Where you'll have experts teaching you

Rather than having to learn everything by yourself

Again go to any company, if you're legit and know your shit (You can prove it with previous projects or just your experience working jobs), the last thing they ask is a degree.

I'm just telling you how it works lol

Someone with actual experience in the field vs someone with a piece of paper

Not even a decision

You're saying it like a degree is just a piece of paper

A degree **is** experience

Not saying degrees don't help

You're overstating the difference way too much

Both are experience

No working a real job making money *is* experience

I disagree and so so the people doing the hiring <:ohsargon:451135765368274954>

Well the people doing the hiring are retarded

I don't think Valve is retarded

Or any tech company

Or the CIA

Imo if you have actual work experience you have mostly concentrated knowledge

They want the best of the best

As in you only know the stuff you need to do that job

But with a degree or just any general education

You have more broad knowledge

And you can learn new things quicker

Cuz you probably already know the basics
