Jobs of the Future: Maths and Science Careers That Are Growing Exponentially

Jul 15, 2016

Don’t give up just yet on that Maths textbook. Take one more look at that Physics homework. It could be bad news or good news depending on how you look at it, but these subjects will determine whether or not you get to make serious money in the future.

Those who have degrees in maths and science related fields are proven to have a higher percentage of job opportunities. Even as you look at the top 10 careers for the future, most of them require some sort of math or science background.

That essentially means that you don’t have to become a mathematician in the future; you just have to know enough to get by in your chosen career.

The reason for this is simple; math and science is all about problem solving. Those who love maths love the chance to solve a problem. This is why engineers all have excellent math backgrounds as they are always looking to solve the next problem. Math is also crucial to one of the most important jobs of the future; data analysts. This job has been called future-proof, meaning that there is hardly any chance that this job will ever go away. It’s kind of nice to know that no computers or machines will ever take the job of an analyst. They may start an uprising and battle the humans over control of the earth, but they can’t handle data analysis the way a human mind can. That’s sort of reassuring, I suppose.

Science is the same deal. Focusing on science doesn’t have to mean putting on the lab coat and pouring steaming beakers of liquids into other liquids. Science backgrounds allow you to get great jobs in the medical world as a paramedic, a doctor, anaesthetist or a therapist of some sort. Therapy jobs are going to be even more needed in the future as the population gets older.

So, hang on just a little bit longer and earn the great rewards that a background in maths and science can offer.

What a week 🔥

That’s a wrap on the April Study Bootcamp!

Focused. Productive. Energising.

Our Bootcamp students showed up every day ready to train and push themselves .. and it showed.

Real progress isn’t built in a single session. It’s built through consistency, accountability, and being surrounded by the right people.

Proud of every student who committed to the process this week. This is how momentum is created. 🚀

We asked our coaches for their #1 tip to Year 12 students going into Term 2 (term 3 of your HSC year). Here’s what they said 👇

Zara (English): Stop memorising essays.
Alex (Maths): Do past papers with no notes first.
Jack (Economics): Teach a topic. Stumbling = your next study target.
Ella (All Rounder): Know your syllabus inside out.

Which tip will you implement first?

3 mistakes most HSC students make in Term 2…

And yes, you’re probably doing at least one of them.

1. Spending most of your time on subjects you’re already good at. Feels great. Does nothing for improving your end results. Your weakest subject has the most room to move and that’s where the immediate gains are.

2. Saving past papers for the week before trials. Past papers aren’t revision. They’re practice that identify strengths and weaknesses. Do them early enough that you can actually act on what they tell you.

3. Studying more hours but without intention. Re-reading notes. Highlighting. Rewriting summaries for the 4th time. Your brain is comfortable but it is not pushing you into the next level. Active recall and practice questions are uncomfortable for a reason. Get them done every day, not just in the lead up to the assessment.

Term 2 is where the biggest progress can be made. Small adjustments now = big results in October.

After working with hundreds of HSC students, we can tell you that the highest achievers are simply following a formula. A simple formula which anyone can follow...

They’re not necessarily studying 10 hours a day or sacrificing their entire social lives. What sets them apart is a mix of habits, mindsets, and strategies that most students either don’t know about or know about but don’t consistently apply. Here’s what we’ve observed and how you can apply it.
