<p>I've been told that there are majors that will be extremely hard to get a job when you graduate even though they are interesting. This is coming from talks with professors, peers, parents, counselors, etc. Is there any truth to this? and what majors? and if it is hard to find a job then why do people major in it in the first place? It seems like only business, accounting and engineering majors are the only ones that get hired these days</p>
<p>i’ve heard sociology is pretty useless.</p>
<p>I’m majoring in Sociolgy because I am interested in it and will be going to law school so my major could really be anything I wanted and the basics such as economics, business, etc. seemed really boring to me.</p>
<p>Latin is the most useless</p>
<p>pursue your interests.
if you’re a capable individual, you’ll find a way to make a decent buck.</p>
<p>Just make sure to make over 9000 friends on MySpace by the time you’re done too. Amirite?</p>
<p>i want to, but i don’t want to end up as a professor or worse a grad school drop out</p>
<p>and i’ve heard its not that easy to finish grad school or get professor jobs</p>
<p>honestly, if you don’t go to grad school or get a law/doctors degree you really won’t make very much money unless you’re an engineer or something of that sort.</p>
<p>also, i spelled sociology wrong by accident up there.</p>
<p>I’m doing Poli Sci, and I know it’s worthless, but I hated business classes, so I switched. I couldn’t take that boredom for 4 years. I’m definitely interested in an advanced degree though, so hopefully it will all work out in the end.</p>
<p>most majors are useless until they are applied to ‘real world’ issues</p>
<p>Thank you pinkerfloyd. Very good point.</p>
<p>look at environmental science, it is more relevant now than ever before…10 years ago people were saying that it was useless and that ES majors would inevitably be working at McDonald’s or a National park…</p>
<p>now the people who majored in Environmental Science are cleaning up (word play) because there are so many applications for their chosen major</p>
<p>SIDENOTE: people who choose the major they like generally choose a easier major and enjoy it more than others who chose it b/c it leads to a good future. say…a Bio major who is aspiring to be a doctor</p>
<p>^ if you make a pun, it becomes unfunny the second you, yourself, point it out.</p>
<p>that aside,</p>
<p>“Just make sure to make over 9000 friends on MySpace by the time you’re done too. Amirite?”</p>
<p>look, man. i’m not sure what you’re trying to prove here, but Myspace is anything but a joke. I’ve got over 429 friends on Myspace (no joke) and i would never joke about that. Myspace is a serious site for networking, picking up on hot chicks (foreign and domestic) and following the newest trends to keep you cool and popular. when you suggest that one’s success in life is contingent upon their accumulation of >9,000 friends on Myspace, you’re building a dream that can’t possibly be realized. </p>
<p>by the time i’m through with college, i expect to have OVER 1000 friends on Myspace, but that’s only because i’m particularly popular and people tend to like me instantly, without even meeting me, because i’m pretty much the most awesome myspace friend, ever - yeah… i thought about it for a second… i’m definitely the most awesome myspace friend, ever. if someone like me can only realistically hope to amass OVER 1,000 friends on Myspace by the time he’s through with college, then you and i both know that an accomplishment like that is totally out of the question for the majority of people out there in the innerweb.</p>
<p>i hope that no one will take Nijikon seriously.
there’s no way to get OVER 9,000 friends on Myspace.
it’s physically impossible. </p>
<p>i’m totally sick of ■■■■■■ coming on this forum making jokes out of serious things. </p>
<p>myspace is NOT a joke, bro. no joke…</p>
<p>Pinkerfloyd is my favorite poster here and not just because I happen to like pink floyd. ;)</p>
<p>123456789a,</p>
<p>don’t be sad, bro.
if you remain sad, jack bauer is going to get sad.
and when jack bauer gets sad, people die and america becomes vulnerable.
no joke, bro. </p>
<p>and about the myspace vs facebook thing… i’ll pretend like you didn’t say that.
myspace is where it’s at, and everyone who’s anyone knows it.
myspace4lyfe!
no joke.</p>
<p>I didn’t post that…it is deleted now</p>
<p>it’s alright, bro.
i forgive you.
no joke.</p>
<p>im a girl…</p>
<p>in that case, a/s/l?</p>
