The thing is that so many people go to college just for the sake of going to college....Those people will end up studying some useless shit like political science or something along those lines, which is where you will get your worst case scenarios....I knew a bunch of geniuses back in high school, but they get to college and have no idea what they want to do in their life so they just start studying whatever they find the easiest....Next thing you know, they are done and only finding jobs that have nothing to do with their career...
Back in the day, it was tough to get a job in the field you studied without getting your Bachelor's degree....Nowadays your Bachelor's doesn't mean shit because almost everyone has them....Now you have to set yourself apart from the rest of the crowd by getting your Masters....But with all of that schooling, you have to decide whether the career you are choosing is worth spending all that time and money on, and moreover, you better be sure that you will be getting paid....Don't want to be in debt for the next 15 years trying to pay off all those school fees only to get job that pays an average amount...
