@scott_bot @ryanfb Finally, someone asks. So first off, psychology is the *worst* discipline; physics is just the *most overrated* discipline, but it's still a top ten discipline overall. They just need to buckle down and make videos for me.
@scott_bot @ryanfb The rest of the top 10:
1. Chemistry. No complaints: better, living indeed (steady).
2. Musicology. Huge growth potential, solid balance of techne, math, history, appreciation. (+2)
3. Math. Still the strongest overall team, but fixation on number theory holds it back (-1)
@scott_bot @ryanfb 4. Sociology. It just keeps chugging. (-1)
5. Econ. Strong rebound from the 2008 debacle by picking a lot of left wingers in the draft, big potential. (+6)
6. Media Studies. Big potential if they can finally stop trying to please their deceased English PhD advisors. (+2)
@scott_bot @ryanfb 7. CS. Dominant position but with outlook clouded by ongoing loss of key players to free agency. (-1)
8. Physics.
9. Mol Bio. 20 years after promising targeted gene therapies, will they finally deliver? (-2, b/c no)
10. History. Dinosaurs have good bones. (+1) @Ted_Underwood
