[quote=Anonymous][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]

Psychology ranks pretty high and not too far behind Business.

Alot of premed major in Psychology if they don't want to do a hard science as a major---they just take the needed prerequisite Med school courses.  It also provides a strong foundation for understanding people/critical thinking and mix it with a business minor/some cs or technology courses and you are an attractive employee.  You also develop good writing skills with a psych major
