Majoring in marketing was the biggest mistake of my life, advice please??

<p>I took econ, statistics, and financial accounting my freshman year. I took managerial accounting and finance my sophomore year. There wasn’t much math in either class, only journal entries/Excel and addition/subtraction. My finance final exam was 2/3 essay questions.</p>

<p>How did you score on the GRE, and what was your SAT score?</p>

<p>—10 bucks says at least 10 percentile below HiHelloMorning.</p>

<p>I would suggest that you read some other blogs that have recently been posted about the economy and where the economy is going. Read, for example, about what has happened to law school grads, or MBAs, or even engineers. Whatever you do, don’t go to grad school. The ROI isn’t there and won’t be for a long time. You need to follow the advice above and get a small job at a big company, where you can move up after you prove yourself. The degree will help, eventually. But, for now, no one cares about anything but job experience.</p>

<p>That will be $10 bucks please. (Above.) :)</p>

<p>BS trooper. These are the same people who were advising others to buy houses in 2007. Nobody knows the future of the economy although many will claim to. I’d say at least 95% of the financial and economic “experts” out there had no idea the financial meltdown would happen 48 hours before it did. What makes you think these same people can predict the future now? It’s like listening to religous people who claim they know when the world is going to end. Nobody knows that crap, including me, and nobody knows what the future of our economy is going to look like one month, six months, one year, two years from now. It’s all conjecture at this point.</p>
