<p>I also like how pure science majors (except math) are ranked higher than engineering, but engineering majors are paid more out of undergrad and have more strict requirements while in undergrad.</p>
<p>I also like how at most schools Astronomy is part of the physics department (lots of math), yet here ranked bellow Family Studies.</p>
<p>I’d also like to say that I do not agree with women’s studies being last… I might be the only person on earth who actually appreciates that major, but it happens to be quite useful for those without a certain appendage. :P</p>
<p>In my very humble opinion:</p>
<p>Business should move down. Way down.
Women’s Studies is in a perfect position.
I noticed history wasn’t even on there (unless I missed it, I’m a skimmer).
Music should move down.
Astronomy and Economics should move up.</p>
<p>This is what happens when you try to be a know it all. Everyone rips you to shreds. </p>
<p>“but it happens to be quite useful for those without a certain appendage. :P”</p>
<p>How?</p>
<p>My double majors are tied for first! This just confirms my belief that I have made the right decision and every other major wishes he/she could be majoring in what I am!</p>

Nice Catch. My school doesn’t offer these two so they weren’t on the list I was going off of.</p>
<p>^ That, I agree with. :P</p>
<p>Lol I don’t agree with it still.</p>
<p>lol finance and biology at the top</p>
<p>that’s hilarious. finance being #1 shows the author’s huge bias, and bio is like the red-headed step-child of the science majors.</p>
<p>lol and astronomy being so low. the astronomy for business majors class you took is not representative of the subject. </p>
<p>i think the author doesn’t know what he is talking about . . .</p>
<p>Minnesota, check this out
[xkcd</a> - A Webcomic - Purity](<a href=“http://xkcd.com/435/]xkcd”>xkcd: Purity)</p>
<p>Bio is not stronger than chem, physics, and math.</p>
<p>Oh well I tried.</p>
<p>finance/accounting #1? pathetic.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>That’s one college, read the link again.</p>
<p>(Would you say 80-100 credit hours for ones entire undergraduate years a lot? As I notice, many majors only require 30 credit hours…)</p>
<p>At my school 120 credits are required to graduate.</p>
<p>^
Then how can one just have a major in political science/ international relations/ international studies and economics if together that only requires about 60-70 credit hours? Do I also need to think about adding a third major?</p>
<p>(Wow 120)</p>
<p>Because in liberal arts they require 24-30ish credits for classes specifically for your major + a core requirement which at my school is 42 credits plus two years of a language/four classes (language classes are 6, 5 or 4 credits) plus a writing class and a social science class and 6 more science credits in addition to the core science which is seriously annoying xD. And we are also required to have a minor, 12 more credits. Total: 109 ish give or take. And then the rest are electives, another minor maybe, etc.</p>
<p>If someone gets rid of a lot of core requirements through testing or summer, then it’s easier for them to double major. </p>
<p>My math might be wrong. xD</p>
<p>But this is for my school.</p>
<p>If you go to the school’s site, look at the degree plans/required classes, you will see it’s not just 30 credits. lol.</p>
<p>Aren’t most liberal arts majors something like ~40 hours in major, ~40 hours for gen ed requirements, ~40 free electives?</p>
<p>Being a liberal arts major would be awesome for the 4 years.</p>
<p>Isn’t that what I said?</p>
<p>At UT Austin its 24 for your major and we have to have a minor so an extra 12 and gen ed for the university is 42 but there are also gen ed requirements for liberal arts separately (language, writing, science, etc) so the core goes up to around 60 or higher, depending on the language you pick. After you do all that, then you have electives but you don’t get 40. It’s more like 15 credits for electives if you don’t transfer in any credits for the core. Or less if you choose a language like Arabic where the first year classes are 6 credits.</p>
