[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you're talking about just a generic business major, it is a bad degree. Business majors are more likely to be unemployed and underemployed than average. A lot of people choose it without thinking a lot about it, assuming that because it relates to finance they will automatically get a good job. It's an extremely popular major so there is sort of a glut of them and they often don't cultivate any specific skills to stand out to potential employers. Things are different if you major in something more specialized. And, if you major in business at a prestigious university you'll be fine. But overall it doesn't serve any of the potential purposes of a college education: it's both shallow intellectually and doesn't necessarily give you hard skills to make you marketable.
