Why the fukk are y’all calling engineering underrated?
Because we're black and you aren't.
Isn’t Biology basically pre med?
How can it b overrated?

I wouldn't call CS over/underrated. It's pretty hyped among those advanced placements types over in the HSs over here, but when they hit that 2nd year of it in college, most of em left.
With math, it's definitely underrated. You can do a lot of things with a major in math and some programming knowledge.

DO NOT fall for the myth that it's stem or bust. English skills are always in demand because all fields need communication. Jobs you can get from professional writing like technical writer are growing by 11%(Which is faster than the majority of occupations) and they work in unison with engineering.
Also, you mentioned that you're good at writing. Have looked into copywriting at all?

Isn't communications the major athletes choose to be able to have enough free time to practice and fukk around?
Don't get me wrong, communication skills can talk you a long way but you can demonstrate it at the job fair or interview. don't need a degree for it
I know a girl who graduated with a communications degree last year and she's a babysitter now. Smart girl too, was on the honor roll throughout k-12
Yes I have, I just didn't find a good way to learn copy because I haven't seen it discussed a lot. I never really heard about how you should become a copywriter.
I know I could do that on the side instead of getting a degree.
Yeah, I always heard to find your strengths instead of your weaknesses, and I've always been a lot better with writing than math, but many people say I would be a failure working at starbucks if I chose english instead of stem, or medicine.
I plan on majoring in IT, but if it's too hard fukk it, I'm going for english with a concentration in technical writing.
You gave me hope. I thought my life would be over if I couldn't get a stem degree.

It's the coaches' fault for pushing these kids towards these majors. It's only to make sure these student athletes have classes easy enough for them to maintain athletic scholarship eligibility. But they never think about these kids futures after college atheltics if they don't turn pro.
I also heard with an English degree I would be in academia. Which I don't want to do at all.

Overrated- Biology (Because you can major in anything and go to medical or dental school) Just need to take the prerequisites.
Underrated- Aviation/Flight education- I mean traveling all the time, great money, steady career. I'm telling anyone here who likes to travel, meet different people and good income. BE a pilot.

I'm one of those kids that majored in Comm as an easy major. I Went to the job office at my University and applied for a bunch of jobs. Received a job with the company Aldi as a District manager right out of college with a starting pay of $80K. I ended up taking another job as I didn't like living in South Florida. Although I am now considering doing an Accelerated Bachelors of nursing so that I can eventually work with veterans down the line. I have seen plenty of jobs with starting pay of $50k+ with the only requirements being a Bachelors degree (with any major). A lot of these athletes kids can't handle a tough major on top of doing athletics.

Im hearing its trash tho. Lucky to get 30k out of schoolI don't think IT/CS degrees are underrated. Most people know they are like the highest paid majors and the career opportunities are great. People just know that shyt is hard as hell
Underrated:
MIS degree
Yeah, a lot of people never mention jobs that just require a bachelor's degree, it never states in what major, just bachelor's.
Mathematics has to be the GOAT major for its versatility alone (especially at masters and post grad level)
