I don't know whether to go for the degree that I'm not really interested in at all, but can make a good salary (like $55-70,000) right when I get out. Or...a degree that I absolutely LOVE, but may only make $30,000-40,000 when I get out, and could make up to $100,000 someday, with enough education and experience. It's stressing me because it's almost time to pick courses for next semester. And...basically, this next semester and the courses I take/major I pick will be the pin point of graduating on time. ugh![/quote] FAQ Keyword Search: Post Options Favorites Manager Notify me of new replies to this topic by email Notify me of new replies to this topic by private message Original Post Anonymous Posted at 7:49 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 I'm stuck on my college degree choice.
