Post your stereotypical views of students..

Economics - normally too focused on their work seem to be stuck up unhelpful and sometimes rude. Economics students due to being stuck up see everyone else as beneath them apart from law/higher ranking groups.

Math/physics - Very social, but not many people understand them so are seen as outcasts or boring, prefer to be alone when doing work and get verry touchy of people near them.

Psychology/Sociology - always trying to rack your brain book before cover kind of motto can be verry offensive as they may cross the line often.Some of them are obssessed with logic (caused by the style of essay writing in psychology). Dresses casually and it's sometimes possible to distinguish them from other based on their clothing attire.

Politics - Intellectual and well-versed students. Very insightful and can be quite arrogant (stuck up normally). Generally though they're nice people who are well-rounded. Tends to drink strnzong liquour. Dresses quite smart & upscale always looking down at the lower classes.

Business/Management/Accounting - Laidback & driven people. Can be very sociable! Tend to be overly optimistic and seem to lack an ability to bring the country forward where other classes can not hence having the right motives. Dress changes (im one) and other students are normally laid back to their attitude and clothes some are fully suited where others are t shirt and jeans.

Dang ive edited your post, to my own opinions I thought this was going be about university students. Etc higher ranking universities like cambridge and oxford normally have strong willed and minded people however normally arrogant apart from the nice few that have not been brough up with a golden spoon in their mouths.

It is essentially about university students you have come across. We all have some stereotypes of students studying certain courses. I just thought It'd be interesting to see what stereotypes people have! You don't have to base it on 'reality' rather just your stereotypical view of a student studying certain subjects!

Just thought of a rather interesting idea, what stereotypical views do you hold of students studying certain subjects and why? I'll start it off;


Psychology/Sociology - Social people. At times a bit too social. However a few of them are quite introverted and weird but the majority are social and very outgoing. Can be quite prententious and arrogant but are generally down to earth. Some of them are obssessed with logic (caused by the style of essay writing in psychology). Dresses casually and it's sometimes possible to distinguish them from other based on their clothing attire. Alcoholists.

You missed out medics. What's your opinion on them?

Not a stereotype but you can spot them in Durham, and they all seem to wear the same style of shirt

What?

Medics: Work hard and party harder.

At Keele anyway!

I've never understood why medics always say they work hard and party harder...don't all students do that?

Not as much as medics

Oh. How come?

Because they are medics and they study medicine

Because they are medics and they study medicine

Does that mean that they must work harder than all students and therefore party harder than all students?

Circular logic, tsk tsk

No, but medics often have a very high workload compared to many subjects

And they need to let out steam

(This is not to say that other students don't work hard/party hard, but it's a medic stereotype)
