[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In my area it used to be the “elite” students would do pre-med (biology), pre-law (history), then [b]finance[/b] was added in, then it seems finance dwindled a bit and CS was added in, and now it seems almost all in my DC friend group are talking about applying for engineering - only a few for CS. Big shift from when my nieces/nephews went to college a few years back. Most who wanted engineering got in - now it seems so many more are vying for the same spots.[/quote] Most of the people from my cohort who went into finance majored in engineering. Some were also econ. There wasn't a "finance" degree. [/quote] There's finance major under school of business [/quote] Engineering is a more versatile degree. Business is not very challenging (far easier math and stats requirement, for example) compared to engineering/CS at schools like Berkeley and Michigan, and even Wharton compared to Penn SEAS.
