Op-Ed: The 10 Worst Majors for Finding a Good Job

[blackrain]

honestly no major is worth getting a bunch of loans...unless u a doctor/engineer/MIS/COMPUTER science where ur salary will allow u to pay on em.... most of the majors listed u gotta at least get a masters in and grad school has no financial aide.... no one starting out in the $20,000 - 28,000 entry level position of a job with only their bachelors and no work experience fresh out of school is gonna be able to afford a $300 a month student loan payment along with utilities, rent, car note , cell phone etc... when u get out of school reality is a mutha

Anyone who comes out of school paying that much is an idiot. There's plenty ways to have it deferred or adjusted to whatever your income is. They don't just pull a random number out their ass to charge you. I know people paying as little as $10 a month on their student loans

I'm in marketing about to graduate this spring. Is there any hope for me? I want to get into the promotions and advertising creation side. I feel like a startup company would be a good place to start off at. Problem is I live in the DC area and the NYC area really has a lot more opportunities. A lot of people say that I need to be headed into an MBA but, Ive spent the last 4 years busting my ass. I want to actually make some money before heading for another degree.

Engineering is a great major to have. So many different avenues someone can venture off to. Truthfully speaking engineering does not boom money-wise in Louisiana. Thinking on going elsewhere to another state. Get a master's degree in material science. Then work on my Professional Engineering license.

my major is sociology

waste of a bachelors degree. I had job in the human services field while pursuing my degree and when I went to apply for human/social services positions at mid level they told me my pregrad work experience didn't count and I would have to start at entry level. The saddest part was when I applied for entry level positions I was either over qualified or I didn't have enough experience and needed to further my degree
