Yah i agree with need everything ok, not disregarding english majors or "international studies" but you know some of these majors you do not need to spend 4 years studying..like international studies....and i was a psych minor, by the end of the 2nd semester I didn't even hear anything new... it's Erik Erison, Freud, Jung, Pavlov everyday...i can't imagine some of my class mates did 4 yrs of it. But again that is just my personal opinion as i am now relatively successful starting from biology major and work my way up to medicine.

 

International Relations major here, and i'd either like to see you explain exactly why Vietnam is currently closer to the USA than it is to China, or don't bash the major you don't know.

If u think this topic is worth 4 years of "hardcore" studying; be my guess. I am not bashing your major, it is obvious some major requires more work than other. And it is fact on average, science major makes more than non-science major if you want to use money to judge success. Like I said, some would like to use self-fulfilment or happiness to judge success which is fine with me. Some major can definately be done in less than 4 yrs, IMO psychology can be done in 2 yrs if they condense course work; being a psych minor i thought it was a joke; was 3 classes away from double major didn't even bother.
