[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unless someone is razor focused on business and can get into Wharton, business is a very limiting major for undergrad.[/quote]

Wharton or nothing ... lol[/quote]

At many universities, business is a very easy major and many of the so-called "athletes" major in business.  In this major, It comes down to "connections".  In other words, it is about "who you know".  It is very hard to get a good paying job with a business major unless you have "connections".  I am sure you will see folks jump in here and say that they get good paying jobs without hooks but those are exceptions rather than the rule.  [/quote]

My niece graduated with an undergraduate degree in business from "not Wharton" this year. Her concentration was sustainability, which is an emerging/growing field, and she landed a really terrific job. My nephew will be graduating next year (from Kelley), and has his job in hand, after his summer internship. They had no connections, but are both smart, motivated kids with strong work ethic, that actually busted their chops to land good internships, which then led to their jobs.[/quote]
