[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just returned from a college reunion, and my friends' kids who majored in CS and graduated last year and this year are all un- or under-employed. It seems pretty obvious to me that low-level CS jobs are the first to be gobbled up by AI. [b]If you go to a top school, it truly does not matter what you major in. [/b]Most of those kids who want top jobs in tech, finance, consulting will get them. Majoring in something skill-based is more important if you attend even a slightly lower-ranked school. [b]This is why people work so hard to secure spots in the Ivy-plus school[/b]s.[/quote] Yes indeed, and not just for jobs—50% of ivy/plus kids go to grad school, PhD MD JD, and typically the “average” grad of these schools still land top grad &professional school placement.
