“TOP TEN JOBS COLLEGE MAJORS THAT LEAD TO GOOD CAREERS”▪This is based on American Statistics▪This video is just for discussion purposes! The “list” type videos are dependent on how and where the research was conducted. ▪https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LRAZrrFwSpE

COMMENTS FOR DISCUSSION ON VIDEO▪ “And biochemistry, biotechnology,

molecular biology, etc. should really be on this list. These are the fastest growing scientific fields. They are the fields doing research to make new medicines and gene-based therapies. Pharmaceutical sciences will always be a HUGE money maker. And by the way, a PharmD (pharmacist) easily makes six figures straight out of school. Not sure why that wasn't here. This video is not comprehensive at all. (PS physics isn't that lucrative, that was my first major.) Their info is crap, and no sources are listed at all.”

▪ “What this video doesn't tell you is that after you get a bachelor's degree, your first job is most likely grueling and demanding for a few years. After you work your way up in the industry, it becomes much more worth it.”

▪ “Any college major can lead to a successful career if you put forth the effort. It all depends on how you define success anyway.”
