An Academic God-tier

Maths, yes, physics, YES, chemistry, maybe, engineering no, astronomy, probably, medicine yes.

Huzzah for elitism!

The list is clearly made by a scientist who holds the whole "Sciences are more difficult" bias

sup mister psychology? whats it like known that none of your theories are based on factual information

Sorry if this is in the wrong section, please move it mods if needs be.

Hi, I just came across this funny image on the internet, and wanted a little chat about it:


I'm sure y'all can figure out what the censored word is, I just had edit that so I wouldn't risk getting warned, lol.

Anyway, I can't believe the image maker put subjects like English, History and Philosophy in the **** tier. I know they're probably not as respected as the Science subjects, but I thought they were still pretty respected in their own right. I guess everyone has their own opinions though. Discuss.

(God-tier is game slang, explained here: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/CharacterTiers)

I think the while tier classification system is absoloute ********... I really have a strong disdain for scientists who think they are more intellectual than other people involved in a profession which isn't science. Such synicism and elitism shouldn't exist... Some of the people I consider the most articulated and intelligent I've ever met are writers, historians etc...

Plus, the majority of people I meet who often agree with the table tend to be lacking in other areas eg. Crap social skills, inabillity to get laid etc...

Newton had terrible social skills.


I'm a scientist but science only gives you certain skills. I think it's damn important and incredibly useful but it's by no means the only discipline worth doing.

And when people say it's 'harder' than other subjects, in most case it's true. But that's for most people. For some people, science is actually easy and other subjects are harder.

Is this actually off 4chan? Not /b/? Because this is lame, even coming out of that tiny hivemind.

I'm sick of great people being slated for stupid stuff like this. Maybe he was depressed so didn't feel like socialising, or socialising just didn't interest him. Doesn't mean he was any less intelligent. Social skills are basic, and pretty much anyone could socialise effectively.

The list makes more sense than all the other stuff on /sci/

I saw it a month ago on 4chan and it was from /sci/, explains it all. Made me lol a little though.

To you they're basic but to other people they come much harder. Which was my point.


And Newton was, by all accounts, quite a nasty character. There are stories of him revelling in the 'joys' of public executions. He was though, of course, an amazing genius.
