Here's a question to some college grads...

My major is health management based, and I'm also minoring in business. My school offers another minor (Information Systems Technology) through my major and it's basically an accelerated minor, but I would have to do an extra semester (5th year) to complete it.

From my research, having a technology background in the health industry is a HUGE advantage over other people.

Do you think it's worth it to have an extra semester to get that minor?



Yeah. Or try to load up throughout. 2 extra classes for a semester and 1 extra 3 more times. Would be worth it

I couldn't tell you of any impact my minor has had on me obtaining a job, to my knowledge. Varies in different cases though obviously

A business minor is useful. Business helps in a variety of fields especially if you have aspirations to be upper management. Your school might have a guidance counselor who could help give you better advice than JSP though.


e/ and good luck to you all

As a grad student, exam period is really just final paper period.

I'm finishing the conclusion of a 25-pager for one class. Still have a 10-pager and 6-pager to do. (10-pager is really just a smaller version of the 25-pager, so that's easy).


most my exams are papers too

My computer science exam is written. What sense does that make?

I'm contemplating getting a certificate in digital studies. Not sure if it's worth it.

Might do it just because the class selection is turning out to be really shitty next semester. Only got 1 class so far -_-
