[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1) The fact that you got a liberal arts degree in undergrad and then went on to become a lawyer, doctor, or some other professional seems irrelevant. [b]Your success is based on that second degree, not your undergrad. [/b]And I say that as an attorney with a BA in history. 2) Maybe DC is an anamoly, but I see a ton of entry-level jobs looking for liberal arts degrees, or at least looking for the skills a liberal arts degree implies. I think a lot of those English majors working in shoe stores were mediocre students with no plan for what they were going to do after graduation.[/quote] Ah, but your ability to get into a top school depends in part on your undergrad GPA, so the best course of action for a potential lawyer or other professional is to major in whatever will give you the best chance of graduating with a 4.0.[/quote]
