What majors

<p>Can you apply with for business school?</p>

<p>Business Admin,...</p>

<p>Anything .</p>

<p>Anything? Political Science? Anything?</p>

<p>Anything means anything.</p>

<p>So why don't people pick very easy majors to have a better chance if it doesn't make a single difference?</p>

<p>Because what you do in undergrad doesn't really matter very much for B-school admissions anyway. Far more important than anything you did in undergrad is the quality of the work experience and leadership potential that you can present. </p>

<p>Hence, the most important thing you can do in undergrad is to get a top job upon graduation from which you have the opportunity to do high-quality work and maximize your potential. Many, probably most, jobs do not offer such opportunities. For example, without naming names, I can think of several companies where the promotion schemes are awarded mostly based on seniority rather than merit, which means that you can be the best and hardest-working employee at the company and still not be given a chance to work on good projects or take on higher levels of responsibility. </p>

<p>And the fact is, choosing the very easy majors probably won't help you to get a good job after graduation, simply because most of the very easy majors are, frankly, not highly marketable. For example, majoring in Leisure Studies - which is a real major at some schools - may indeed be easy but probably won't get you a good job.</p>

<p>It would be counter intuitive to get a job with a leisure studies degree.</p>
