College Major thread!

Sign in to disble this ad
I searched and it has been a year or so since we've had one of these... Identify yourselves!

I was a music performance major but switched to a double in International Business and Economics. I'm looking forward to selling my soul to the finance world. Then hopefully I can make just enough to buy it back, retire, and enjoy life with my family and the people I love most... and some bass thrown in there too .

Electrical Engineering. I'm taking an economics class (unfortunately on Mondays from 7-10 pm ) consisting mainly of engineering students and he keeps telling us we should switch to major in economics because they make more money on average .

Biological Science Pre-Dentistry. Thinking of just getting my MBA after. Or starting from scratch and going for mechanical engineering. Yep.... senior year is not a fun time to realize you dont want to do what you spent 3 years learning.

Three years of physics/engineering in the late 80's then I quit to work full time. Never got the urge to go back.
