Look at the starting and mid career pay for those with just undergrads, and compare it to other undergrads


I didn’t major in a STEM field and will have $285,000 in stock vest tomorrow. That’s after tax. My income is $1.4 million this year.

But sure.


Lol. So gross.


You find wealth to be gross?


No. You are gross.


Because I make money? lol ok


No because you brag about it on an anonymous forum.

It’s is stupid it sounds like a troll. Maybe the same persons bantering back and forth. Or just parents of the highly gifted, poor kids.

For highly gifted, public magnets are a better fit - more advanced curriculum and larger peer group.


Public if they can test into the attentive programs.

One kid wanted to remain with MS cohort stayed with zone school (WJ APEX program) felt challenged and had college success.

Sibling, 99th percentile Mensa kid, did Blair and loving thriving as a junior in STEM in college.


This whole back and forth about STEM salaries is pointless. Kids go on to study STEM in college from literally every high school anyway. So if STEM or bust is your m.o., you can do that from anywhere. According to our HS counselor, half of the kids in our private school are in STEM progress in college.
