    Default job as a scientist

    well ive always been a very open minded person, ive always liked to know how and why things happened, and i openly think of different theories for different things.

    do you think i could be a scientist?

    Being very open minded doesn't mean that you're smart enough to be a scientist. They say Hitler was very open minded, but was he a scientist? Hell no. He couldn't even wipe one race off the planet. Pathetic.

    The question is do you think you could be a scientist.

    You have to be passionate about science,and it would take lots of schooling.

    Hmm anyone who questions the world around them and wants to either improve the world or explain the world can be a scientist.

    Whether or not you can afford the education is gonna be a big obstacle, plus there being so many types of everything.....will drive you insane.

    ....No...you can't because you didn't capitalize.

    But seriously...being open minded doesn't really mean a shit when it comes to being a scientist. Sounds more like you should be some kind of...homosexual therapist or something. Anyway >_> firstly you'd have to consider what type of scientist you would want to be, I mean...there are different kinds. Secondly being a scientist will usually take an assload of math/physics knowledge/skills yeah. So, if you aren't especially proficient in those I wouldn't recommend it, and if you thought being a scientist meant sitting your *** around all day while someone pays you for nothing. Think again.

    ohshit not that line again. ahh really confusing can't even decipher it.

    anyways, to be a scientist you need to be really logical and reasonable. you also have to be curious about every single detail like you have an OCD about small details. you must have a high education to understand technical concepts and be able to come to a hypothesis or conclusion. then you would need to be able to prove your hypothesis and get your name out there so other scientists can see your stuffz.

    but thats just what I think.

    Well yeah possibly.....but nowadays with kids thinking they can be super famous out of school or rappers.........a lot of career markets dry up.

    Don't go to school just because you wanna be wealthy or do something easy, you should go to school because you are passionate about a particular subject.

    Dunno where I was going with this but when I was in High School I was shoved into an Engineering class. Apparently no one wants to be an engineer anymore.

    I wouldn't really suggest that. They are not what they seem. But first and foremost we need to learn how to deal with the atmosphere there; don't want to start sending people on a suicide mission.

    Scientist is like the broadest range of classifications you could get. That's like saying you want to work in America. Figure out what you like, figure out if you're smart enough, if yes then do it, if not then go to plan B.

    I am a Geoscience major in college. I love everything about science, it's quite breathtaking. Hopefully i make it through to become a great scientist.

    Study something you love and something you will stick with after schooling.
