[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, English Philosophy Psychology History Art etc. are all needed,
but much much less.

So if you have those in mind better be able to get in to apretty selective school to be considered seriously.
Huge luck if you do those in a mediocre school.
[/quote] I'm not sure why people keep bringing up Philosophy, History, English and Art majors in this discussion. They make up a pretty small percentage of bachelors' degrees conferred every year in the US. They don't even break into the top 10. Is there really a glut of unemplyed people with these majors?

The #1 major in the US is Business and Management, by a significant margin. [/quote]

And that is a smart thing.  It's where kids gravitate towards when they decide health sciences, pre med, engineering isn't for them.  Have a kid who did just that and several friends who also became business majors after engineering wasn't their thing.  Because a Business major gets you a degree, you develop critical thinking and makes you desirable to many employers.  It's a degree that you know will help you get employees after college.  [/quote]
