[quote=Anonymous]There is no "have to" in life. If someone enjoys a set of classes, or a major, or a launching pad like engineering should be, good for them. Same for an english major or psychology major. What a lot of these fields do is really teach one how to think. Engineering is a problem-solving approach, using math and science especially. Going to law school doesn't just teach the law, it teaches a certain type of analytical thinking that a lot of people do not possess or have not trained their brain to do. There are not a lot of things where you study and go right into a job to do that exact thing. Accounting would be one. Trade schools of course. And remember, there are lawyers who are CEOs and engineers in private equity. [/quote]
