Hey!
I have to choose my major soon, so for us it's either science and technology or Italian.
I was actually sure I would take the science course.
But now I remembered that I have friends in Italy who don't speak English.
We also had a presentation on the Italian branch and now it doesn't seem so bad to me anymore.
We have to make our final choice soon and I have no idea yet!

Loading...Hello, I wanted to ask something that's been going through my head right now. Namely: I failed a year in high school because I got a 5 in math and French (or rather a 5.0 in math and a 5.?? in French). It's also worth noting that I would actually be doing better in math…
Hey people, I'm 17 at a high school, and I can't make it past 10th grade. Would it be possible to take an external exam, since the rules have changed a bit, and we're given an extra year instead of EF, which is 10th grade. So, theoretically, I'd have to repeat two more years before…
Hey, I'm writing a paper in Spanish soon. I'm currently learning vocabulary for it, and I have two words here that mean "against" in German: en cambio and por lo contrario. But how do I say something like "against" in an argument? "En cambio habla" sounds weird and is probably wrong.
Hello, I'm starting my studies soon (sociology in college). Now the question arises: which minor subject? Gender Studies or Philosophy or Computer Science or History I am very interested in everything but I also have fears : Gender Studies won't help you professionally, it's just "the same" as sociology, but focused on gender Philosophy is…
Hello, I'm currently preparing for my physics exam. I'm in the 11th grade at a high school in Brandenburg. Since I am now retaking the exam, I know the topics a little better: Topic: Gravity and gravitational fields Millikan experiment We have already carried out the Millikan experiment ourselves and written a long report. I…
Thanks to the physicists 👨🔬
Take Italian, adopting languages come easily to you. You can always learn scientific or business-related subjects later in your training; language subjects are less likely. For one thing, learning foreign languages becomes more the older you get, and for another, you don't have time for Italian during training or university difficult if you don't need it for the exam. You'll have plenty of other things to learn.
…it also sounds to me like it's not just about physics and biology, but also about things like mechanics and electronics. That can be quite complicated.
Typically, you choose a branch based on what you're interested in, or perhaps even aptitude for. Perhaps also in relation to a future career choice. Not based on friends in country xy—with whom, by the way, you seem to have been able to get along so far, otherwise, how would you be friends…?
You'll have to figure it out for yourself. Italian as an elective is fine, but as a branch, I don't know. I don't think it will be of much use to you later on, unless you can imagine doing something with languages in general or something like that.
In any case, languages are generally easier to learn than natural sciences, and above all, they can be learned "on the side," even as an older person.
Do you already know what you want to do? Perhaps the science branch would be useful.
Otherwise, just take Italian if you enjoy it. You can always learn certain subjects later if they become relevant for your career.
Science is always a consideration when making such decisions. Languages can be learned well even at an advanced age, but mathematical understanding that isn't developed as early as possible is much more difficult to catch up on later.
I completely disagree. You can always learn math or business administration, but the pronunciation of unfamiliar sounds (like ä, ö, ü in German or the th in English) becomes increasingly difficult as you get older.
