When considering continuing university life by pursuing graduate studies, Zhao Yi immediately thought of liberal arts majors like philosophy and economics for a simple reason: he couldn't apply for science and engineering majors.
Even if he could take the graduate entrance exams normally, it was impossible for any college or mentor to accept him.
This wasn't just about enrolling a genius student; it was about the reputation of the entire college and the mentor himself. Others would think that the college or mentor personally wanted to rely on him to gain fame, rather than truly being able to teach him anything. In fact, for science and engineering majors, even directions he was unfamiliar with, his self-learning efficiency was incredibly high, making it unnecessary to follow a mentor for studies.
The situation was slightly better in liberal arts majors.
