This is a question I normally do to my students on the semester so I have to answer it myself too.<\/p>\n
Informatics<\/strong><\/p>\n This one is hard, I originally wanted to study medicine, I even started the enrollment but at the last minute I changed my mind because I didn’t really wanted to deal with persons, I wanted to do experiments and stuff(Had no idea that there was a career just for that and I will hook up with a girl studying that).<\/p>\n That’s one part of the decision, the other big part was changing the city.So, at the city where I grew up there wasn’t any university that offered a CS degree, I had to move to a city that is a 1 hour car trip.The things on Venezuela were already kind of mess up, \u00a0I didn’t like how the older fellas from my high school that stayed on the city were doing( I felt they were kind of losers now) and also I was kind getting drunk most \u00a0of the week.Finally I had the opportunity to move to Guadalajara since my grandma lived there and I thought well I have to move out of the city, why at least not give a shot?<\/p>\n Computer Engineering<\/strong><\/p>\n After I finished my 1st career I talked with my dad about my maintenance, he told me he was OK with keep supporting me financially for a masters degree(2 years), couple of months later I decided to start computer engineering on the same university because:<\/p>\n 1)My friends from this career thought they were better than me because their degree has a “engineer” and mine not.I couldn’t allow anybody to feel better than me =).<\/p>\n 2)I feel there was still things to learn.<\/p>\n 3)I only had to do 1.5 years so I told my dad if he was willing to change the 2 years for this, he was OK.The other part of the plan was starting a master degree with scholarship, so I will not be working for another 3.5 years.<\/p>\n MBA<\/p>\n I wanted to do a master on software engineering on CMU but one of the requisites for that was having 2 years of experience on SW development, which at the moment I didn’t have.So I decided to look for a job on the area and thought to myself, well I be here for at least another 2 years, thats at master degree, why not get the best of it?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This is a question I normally do to my students on the semester so I have to answer it myself too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[4,3],"tags":[17],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.fernandocc17.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1732"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.fernandocc17.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.fernandocc17.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.fernandocc17.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.fernandocc17.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1732"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"http:\/\/www.fernandocc17.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1732\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3123,"href":"http:\/\/www.fernandocc17.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1732\/revisions\/3123"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.fernandocc17.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1732"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.fernandocc17.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1732"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.fernandocc17.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1732"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
