More talented professors, but like they are not better at teaching, they just are smarter. it doesnt translate a lot of the time

i mean theres a serious devaluing of degrees going on but calling a business degree ā€œuselessā€ is crazy tbh cuz ppl with no experience and no degree are gonna struggle a lot more than ppl with a degree. its just not a guarantee of a job anymore

Getting it by itself is legit worthless, especially if its ā€œbuisnessā€, the more specific a buisness major, the more useful it is

The more all encompassing and broad it is, the harder it is for anyone to justify hiring you since like wtf

Wait so like do you think the guy panicked cuz you did better?

Cuz like I personally only ever panic for somebody else’s grades if they are really low and I like them as a person

Nah. It’s a class he’s not taking, I’m ahead of him. The guy panicked because he thinks I am smarter than him, and he thinks that if I am getting a B in this class, then surely he will do much worse, and then he will not get the 3.9 he needs for med school or whatever

i mean yah i agree that like a general business degree kinda doesnt do much vs any other degree, but even then lots of employers hire students for internships, and its not hard to get offers for business with a lot of networking (going to career fairs, expos, business events, networking nights). and at least with everyone ive talked to who does networking, makes it not that hard to immediately go into a good starter job

It’s not about my experience about anything it’s just ā€œoh god I’m going to fail because May failedā€ which is like. Very weird to hear from my end. Which is why I haven’t stopped talking about it
