[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The US is not a meritocracy. If it were, a STEM major from a random university would get the same or better job opportunities than someone with a social science degree from an Ivy that they were admitted to as a legacy.[/quote] Engineers coming out of college make more than social science majors.[/quote] Yes, on average they do. But it depends... like implied originally a social science major from an Ivy can easily make their way into many very high paying jobs almost immediately if they want to. But that isn't because the system isn't a meritocracy. It's because many of those ivy social science majors are actually very intelligent and talented. Engineering degrees are not that valuable, and STEM education overall is hugely oversold. I have an engineering degree. It was never that useful.[/quote]
