I am thinking of taking a degree but I don't like to do projects.
Are there any degree courses which only have exams and don't have to do projects?
no degree no projects
happy waiting ~
could choose Math, i suppose. no projects whatsoever. just sit and do calculations.
why dun go online and buy a degree, no need do project, exam, assignments, tests etc
every bona fide qualification would have research modules ...requiring you to undertake projects...especially where applications are concerned....
perhaps some online or unrecognized degrees could sell you without projects...
a degree that is easy to obtained does not do you any good.
to be a doctor or dentist, you would need to study very very hard. tell me which medical student that does not need to study hard to be a doctor?
First... tell me how old are you...
go overseas, us, uk best
studying is very relaxed and less stressful over there
the smarter students there don't spend long hours studyig and doing projects like the no-life nerds
american students spend most of their playing computer games and going on vacations

That is not true.
Mathematics courses do have projects, though there is usually not many of them. For the applied maths and mathematical science degree courses in NUS and NTU, for their final year, there is a final year project worth 12 AU.
For most degrees, there will be a final year project worth a whopping 10~12 AUs
Those which don't will have a final year attachment instead, which is worth roughly the same amount of AUs.
which you would still be sitting in a corner calculating on paper, or sitting in front of a comp using Mathematica. the FYP isn't so much of a project but a solo-and-really-long calculation report.
At least for the other Sciences, you get to sit in a lab handling stuff. (except for theoretical Physics, where you'll still be in front of a comp playing with Mathematica)
This reminds me of a friend of mine who didn't know what to take in uni.....
Me: Why don't you take Business? Firms everywhere need business grads.
Friend: Eeee.... have to do projects, have to do presentations.... dun wan....
Me: Science?
Friend: Eeee.... don't want to do lab work....
Me: Engin?
Friend: Even worse than Science....
Me: Law?
Friend: My GP is beri the bad.....
Me: Arts?
Friend: Eeeee..... dun wan to write essays!
Me: What the hell do you want then?
Friend: I want a super slack course.
*facepalms*
Projects are supposed to test your grasp of all the topics that you have studied, if you cannot do any projects then employers will not hire you. Projects are a simulated example of work instances.

lol
sigh... chose wrong course in uni. i much prefer writing long essays than doing lab work.
Oh, and about that slacker friend of mine? It gets better.
She eventually decided to go straight to NIE and become a teacher. She apparently figured that that course wouldn't involve any projects and homework.
Imagine her shock and horror when she went for the course.
I know what degree. You own self come out one. goodheart degree. just people dun recognise only.
I want a degrees, money, housing without doing anything. Is there such a thing?
Yes in fairy tale.

NIE has the lowest cutoff currently, but it is also one of those degree courses where you can use one hand to count the number of first class honors (if there is any in a cohort).
There are lots of project work modules, lots of lesson-plans writing modules, and lots of sociology related modules, so anyone who thought it was slack will really be in for the shock of their life.
That is still not taking into consideration the 120k bond if you screw up...
sim uol .....
or saa uol
100 percent exam based
fyi i detest grp proj too
