----------
So this is obviously a hugely controversial topic that is raging in our society today. In one camp you have the Pro College side that basically thinks that going to college is the key to success and everyone should do it if they want to be successful. In the other camp (very common here on youtube), you have the side that thinks college is a giant scam and we're all falling for it.
Everyone's situation is different and you should make the decision on whether or not to go to college based on your unique situation
Now in MOST situations, you should NOT go to college if you're passionate about a field where there's not much money. You would be way better off just working in the field, maybe spend your time becoming an influencer in that field or something like that. That experience would be WAY better for you.
Compare that to 4 years of going to college and then you finally get a degree and you've forgotten most of what you learned. You're also probably $40k in debt and can't find a job
The thing is, anything worth building takes TIME, rarely do people ever become overnight successes and even when it does happen you end up finding out later on that they worked for YEARS learning how to perfect their craft before they "blew up overnight"
Years of working in the dark with no pay, no recognition and no influence
Just grinding away and mastering their craft
Then they "blew up", if they hadn't spent all of that time they never would have blown up
This is why I really think the safe bet is to get a safe, stable career and then use that as stable ground to launch off of. Have stability and then chase your passion on the side. It will probably take years to take off so you will need that stability in order to launch
Pay: This one is obvious, if everyone is making $30k a year its obvious that society doesn't value the job enough to pay well. Whether this is right or wrong (teachers being an example, they should definitely be paid more), it is what it is and you need to recognize and accept this. Choose a field that pays at least (on average) $60k+ a year, preferably $80k a year. This does vary depending on how expensive the place you live is of course
Job Satisfaction Ratings:
This one is so important. I see SO MANY people wanting to become doctors, its crazy. I tell them to look into the job satisfaction rating for MDs and its HORRIBLE. MDs are depressed and miserable with their jobs to the point where many switch careers or even end it... Very sad to see. Even though they're making really good money, they get a lot of respect from people in society etc etc it's just crazy and the reason for this is all of the red tape and regulations as well as the huge amount of pressure working those long hours in the stressed environment. Everyone seems to be completely unaware of this and they want to be doctors for some reason and it blows my mind. There are better careers in the medical field to get into in my opinion that have all of the perks without the downsides but thats a topic for another video
Demand:
A general rule of thumb is to not go into a field that's dying or has no demand. This is just a recipe for disaster. You will be fighting other people for job openings, won't be able to find a good job in a desirable location, will have to accept lower pay, worse benefits, being treated badly because they could easily replace you, etc etc etc... It's just not a good move to make

what is your degree;;;;
Word of advice to new college students looking to go into stem.....
The sad truth is that there is always going to be someone out there with a higher GPA and or more experience. You might say right now âIm gonna do CSâ and or engineering etc......but you should go into college with a much more open mind, i promise you, your interests are subject to change once you start taking intro classes and major classes. Engineering and CS has a 60%+ drop out rate for a reason and you need to find a way to make yourself special and the time to do it is immediately once you enter college. Its too late after your junior/senior year to make yourself look amazing, you wont stand out more than the next guy/girl. Just always think ahead of your classmates, and also consider that your classmates are your competition once you hit the workforce.
Lastly, i just graduated from Penn State with an engineering degree and let me just say, data sciences and analytics is becoming an extremely hot field with high pay. But its hard and youd have to enjoy it, on my list of best degrees, thatd take #1. Good luck to all.
Stephen Crawford I agree! speaking as a Data analytics major!
Andrew Turner good for you man, a major i wish i woulda considered but im not regretting it. Good luck!
Shane Hummus - The Success GPS I have a question what about a Psychiatrist? I am currently a student in Philadelphia as a photography major my second degree I want is in psychiatry to be a psychiatrist to children and teenagers.
Well I am in my 40"s and going to school for anesthesiologists... my kids are grown and married....I am going to fulfill my dreams
Youâre an inspiration, never give up on your dreams no matter the age!
đđŒđđŒđđŒ you deserve this.
I am also in my 40's going to school for Computers Science...I have 3 children;2 are adults and one one is a year away from graduating...thanks for posting your comment because it has helped to keep me motivated- this is not easy.
@Ed Thanks!đ
Amen, 31 and going back for computer science.
College in Ireland is 3k per year. In Poland its free if you're Polish. In the Netherlands 2k. USA 100k.
This statement says a lot.
Yupp! Used to be a great opportunity but now it's a trap unless you pick the right degree!
Netherlands Universities are from ÂŁ12000 for international and non-EU student's
@@silvian.4040 I live in Ireland so it's 2k for me. Actually it's free for me and I get an extra 3k from grans per year.
@@wubbalubbadubdub7306 because Ireland's education is literally free. But Dutch Universities are not. I actually find French and Italian Government Schools more affordable for international students, ranging between 2-6k. But Netherlands University, mostly accept degree from SA ,Egypt and I think Morroco or some other African Country. The rest are considered as 2 year diplomas. The information on the sites is overwhelming and I would choose, Poland, Scotland or Ireland because of those factors. Or better yet,just go to Germany or Norway.
@@silvian.4040 Every country in the EU has free college basically for people inside the EU. Even Switzerland and other EU associates. These are the public schools. The private schools are a way different story.
I think the most overrated advices to college students is âpursue a degree in something you like.â Instead, we should tell all college students to âpursue something youâre good at, and you can use the income you made from your degree to do something you like.â If you like art, and you are really good at graphic design, donât major in Art, major in Graphic Design instead because itâs more lucrative. Letâs face it, the thing we like to do isnât always going to generate income! If you like Art, and you pursued a degree in Art, you might not even make enough money to sustain your own passion in Art!
i wish i was told this like 5 years ago đđ
This 100%. I feel like we really want our hobbies to convert into a paying job, but that's almost never the case. Instead, we have to realize what skills our hobbies entail and how they apply to a real life career.
Fair advice
not to mention that relying on doing what you love to garner income actually turns something fun into something STRESSFUL!! its not worth it at all!!
@@celestestrange6189
Yeah. So many people I know have lost their passion in art and music after pursing a career out of it.
About the billionaire college dropouts .. it helps that they are GENIUSES
it's not just about being a genius, it's about taking advantage of opportunities. Majority of successful business people don't turn out to be geniuses, but they all are proactive in taking opportunities when they see them.
aperkins07 ...but are the majority of business owners billionaires?
â@@famousace4652 no, but I don't think being a genius matters. There are billionaires with no college education so should we say they're geniuses, too? Regardless of what traits or talents they all hold in common, I think we can all agree none of us are going to become billionaires so they should be looked at as general success and not because they're billionaires which I would think most people this video is arguing against does. I mean it'd be silly for anyone to strive to be a billionaire and completely skip the first hurdle which would be to become a millionaire.
true
aperkins07 I mean with that mentality no you will never be a billionaire. Settling and accepting mediocre is why you wonât get anywhere lol
Cons of engineering : you have to schedule your mental breakdowns because your professor wont let you cry with the shitton of work you have to get done
i want to pursue electrical engineering but am starting to get nervous seeing all the pple saying its really hard đ
Rozzy Waweru donât listen to them. Study hard in those couple years of college and youâll be rewarded with a very satisfying and a financially-stable life in the future
@@Omar-bx5wq thanks đ really appreciate it
indeed
@@Omar-bx5wq study ahead trust me. Email the professor about the syllabus and chapters you need to study before the semester starts
I know more people that say they wish they would have gone to college, than wish they didnât.
That's true Alec
@Dritschler Media
Exactly.
Dritschler Media college challenges yourself and helps you aim high.
Amna Tanveer lying to yourself isnât good
@@TheAmna_Penguin what your business?
I hate the fact that there are so many things Iâm passionate about but there arenât any practical jobs for it so I have to pick something practical instead of something I actually want to do for the rest of my life. :/
Maybe you are a "SCANNER". Take a look at youtube about it, specially the Barbara Sher work "Refuse to Choose". Good look!
me too. I wanna major in English because I'm so passionate about writing but it's really difficult to get a decent living from that. :(
Emma Poorman lawyer
Advice I saw on another video: pick a career that funds your hobby, not a hobby that funds your career. I love theatre, but I also have an netted ton science. I plan on doing something in science so I can do theatre for fun on the side (ideally). Hope that helps!
Good luck
Iâm 14 and honestly hella scared about my future. Iâve seen a lot of people complaining about how they chose a degree theyâre passionate about, but canât find any jobs and in massive debt. Then there are people who pick degrees that are in demand but they donât enjoy and end up depressed from all the work they hate and still in debt.
Iâm just scared Iâll make the wrong choice when I grow older and regret my decision.
Just plan it out.. Know what you need to avoid.. Good luck
Man chill the fuck out. hahah you are 14
Raskolnikov time flies though. Before you know it he will be about to graduate college and have to figure out what to do. Of course, he shouldnât be thinking of his future with worry, but instead planning it out
You got years to figure yourself out. Go out there more, try something new.
Donât worry that much. Why? Because youâre only 14, and by the time youâre 18 youâll probably have not only thought about a crapton of things that actually interest you (because youâll be advancing through highschool and youâll be exposed to new knowledge that actually makes you see how many interesting things you can do) but also have switched between your sup
osed âdream careerâ 2 or 3 times. When I was 10 I wanted to be a Palaeontologist, when I was 15 I wanted to be a civil engineer and now I am 20 and Iâm in my second year of electronics engineering. Youâll find something interesting, donât worry about it. Time is the best teacher.
I envy those who are born with a natural affinity/interest for currently lucrative skillsets. As someone who loves the humanities, I am essentially forced to choose between making money or doing something I actually enjoy.
Keep a balance between passion and practicality. Good luck with everything =)
Hey, deal drugs for a few hours per day then just go to your day job at humanities.
@@IreFang Did that in highschool, almost got caught, don't want to do it again, haha.
Law is a good career path in the humanities
Your username contrasts that very well haha.
I regret dropping out of university I would have graduated in 2008 with a computer science degree. I had a full ride back then. Depression is a hard thing to overcome especially back in college.
Sorry to hear about your depression Va Mu. Any thoughts of going back to uni?
@@ShaneHummus Yes, but its going to be harder to get funding this time around but I'm planning to finish it. Might as well.
I almost dropped out as well because of my depression. It made me doubt myself so many times. But I feel like if you want to succeed you will. You got this bro!
Good luck Va Mu! We're rooting for you!
I dropped out of college twice. It sucks. Everyone thinks I was too lazy or distracted but I wasnât taking care of my mental health and when I do, itâs too late. But thinking about going back soon
Shane: "Not a lot of people persue engineering!!"
Meanwhile in INDIA half of the population is having an engeneering degree with no jobđđ....and they end up teaching in school..
Oh my god, exactly my thoughts!
The population is also another factor
@@ShaneHummus its not the population .. Its just that almost every college gives you an engineering degree , yet only the degrees offered by top colleges such as IITs are valuable ... The rest of the degrees from different colleges aren't worth anything unless you're some miraculous genius or something
And the BSc and MSc students ? They too end up doing something else ... Only 2 out of 10 MSc students would actually do research đ
@@justfloating9787 and what about commerce graduates lol?
Atleast some engineers are doing really good, most commerce graduates will get slaughtered
Iâm a nurse and absolutely love it. Find a specialty you enjoy, a hospital that values you, and great coworkers. I may not be making 6 figures but Iâm able to support myself. Enjoying your job is priceless!
Agreed
But how hard was nursing school ?
Tess Tickles not sure what to compare it to for you but it definitely requires studying, understanding information, and learning how to critically think. I became a CNA before becoming a nurse, that takes a month to become and if you still want to be a nurse after that, GO FOR IT. you can do it with hard work and having a relationship with the faculty, they root for you.
Ellie Day Iâve wanted to be a nurse for years and Iâm a senior this year. I still donât know what to do in college.
Tess Tickles thatâs okay! I think becoming a certified nurse aide would be a great idea. Doesnât take long, is needed in the hospital/nursing homes, and a job ($$). You can have it as a side job in college and if you decide you want to be a nurse, the hospital may even pay for you to go and reimburse you. Bonus!
Iâm majoring in oranges. Idk.. thereâs just something citrusy about an orange that intrigues me. Iâve become very interested in helping the world peel their oranges.
haha nice a bacon sandwich. There's a course where you are taught to do it underwater. lol
Have you considered pursuing a more broad field of study to increase your likelihood of getting a job? Like, what about Citrus Studies? lol
whiteclematis lmaooo
a bacon sandwich is this serious đđ
The kardashians would love that!
Successful college drop out of college because their business just became too time consuming for their degree, ppl like mark zuck still managed to get in to top colleges
True! Mark Zuckerberg was such an inspiration. Sadly, not everyone has the same story.
Shane Hummus - The Success GPS not everyone wants to work as hard
Plus it's like 0.0001% of college dropouts that make it big, others are either working 9-5, doing drugs or unemployed. Don't forget that. A college degree doesn't guarantee everything in life but it does guarantee that you don't have to live your life starving for food.
How many mark Zuckerberg's are there in America , heck the world ?
How many Jeff Bezos are there in U.S ?
How many Bill gates are being churned out of ivy league colleges ?
Itâs not just skill, thereâs a lot of brilliant people with good ideas who tried to be like Steve Jobs or Mark zuckerburg and fell flat on their faces. It takes luck.

Engineering >>> anything else
@@dominicj7977 laugh in celebrity, sport and singer
@@1Star.Boy0 Those aren't degrees. Besides, how many wannabe celebrities actually make it?
You only hear stories of the successful ones but they probably represent like 5% of the whole population of aspiring actors or singers or sportspeople.
@@dominicj7977 yea youâre right
Was looking for this. Thanks
EDIT:HR is a good career to go into, however majoring in an HR degree is not advisable unless you double major in it and something else. The reason for this is you can become an HR manager with a number of different degrees whereas if you get an HR degree you sort of pigeonhole yourself into that one career. Still not a horrible degree, but not as good as many of the other business related ones. Sorry for the confusion there!
I don't really understand!
I'm in grade 12 I wanna study HR in the university! So? Isn't it good or?
@@daniesedits6929
Better to do accounting. Because some HR positions require working in payroll, and throughout your accounting degree, you still learn a lot about organization behaviour, employment laws and such.
But the main problem with HR is that if you major in it, you can hardly do anything else. While if your major in different degrees, you can work in jobs that require that degree and HR if you like.
health care involves psychology ? is it a good career to major in ?
As a guy who is 20 let me tell you younger seniors something. College is worth it, however it is not worth it if you donât want to go. I didnât go right out of Highschool, I went to work. For two years, and had lots of money. But I got sick of it. Donât go to college until you learn to appreciate learning, and know you will be giving it your all.
Solid advice, thanks Robert. Taking a gap year can be a great idea
Robert Gammett what you studying?

But still the graduate employability is 100%. In fact, we need more doctors than ever so I'm not that worried.
@@ShaneHummus Medical research might be opening up. Seems like Med, tech and business - busieness mixed with production of humanities, just like medicine has 2 aspects, healing and making ppl feel better, they aren't alwsys the same but should be!

Hi John Jacob! Yes you're right. There should be a balance between passion and what actually puts food on the table. Thanks for your comment =)
What? Why do you work? For money.
@@asiandod325 right
Yes you should
@@asiandod325 money is extremely important, but is not the most important thing in life. The average person will start a career at age 22 and finish at 62. So for forty years, you're in a job specifically for money. If you're willing to sacrifice happiness for money then have fun chasing money. If you followed that path then you'll be taking anti depressants by age 30.
Now I never said just to follow your passions and cast all common sense to the side. It's quite important to figure what kind of life you want to live. Making money is extremely important and should be considered when choosing your career, but it shouldn't be the primary thought.
When I picked my career it was out of interest towards the subject, I did my research and understood that if I played my cards right I could make a large amount of money. There's many people in my profession that went into it because of the wealth and unfortunately for them, it hasn't worked out.
Computer science CONS: EXTREME COMPETITION.
Right Maria
Airam Flores Not exactly, yes for the posistions at the large tech companies larger are a part of FANG. But the demand is for software engineers/computer science grads is growing but the actual supply of skilled talent is low. Watch the Tech Lead on CZcams he explains it more in detail.
Yes but at my school there is a joke. The school of journalism is made up of failed CS majors.
Especially since companies are hiring people from different countries to do the work for less.
SSG US you need to learn how to write? Just be a journalist, start writing and sell yourself, donât waste your time trying to impress the girls that are gunna end up marrying cops.
I've been a registered nurse for like 8 years, and about to start my second degree in BSCS! Wish me luck!
Best of luck!
Tbh I killed traditional university CS degree kids with self-study and application development.

Make sure to study public speaking, psychology, economix, & political science as well. You're gonna rub shoulders w/some tough nuts to crack. Stay calm. Best advice I can give, though I don't live it. It wouldn't hurt to read a bible at least once too. Why?

Your choice.

i love this comment. all of us here are simply adapting to this terrible educational system in the united states. you here are trying to solve it. hats off to u.
This channel found me at the best time of my life. Iâm 20 years old currently taking a gap semester (Thanks COVID) and trying to figure out what I actually want to do with my life.
Omg same!!! Literally a 20 year old on a gap year too. Feel pretty hopeless do I major in something I enjoy or something that will make me money. But if I major in something that will only make me money. What if I find it hard and fail? ;/
@@dabsbass7687 I like to think of it as pick 2 out of the 3: be good at it, like doing it, and making a lot of money from it.
Pretty much everyone who isn't loaded already will have to pick money for one of the two.
You can be good at anything, really, if you dedicate the time for it, even if it seems hard(e.g. learning a language is possible at any age as long as you try). And you don't have to be perfect, just good enough to get a paycheck.
As for liking it, you don't have to have a passionate boner for your job. You can relieve yourself in your free time (do what you like outside of work, untied to a paycheck). . . .but ofc, if you can get paid a lot to bust a nut, that would be quite a privilege.
As for the imposter syndrome you're feeling, no one knows everything at first. That's what school is for--to learn. Take a class that you think is super hard, and if you retake it, it'll be a breeze. And if you see someone who does know everything, know that their progress isn't yours. Focus on yourself, as that's the only thing that should be important to you.
Me too, you're not alone. Just major in anything in stem but look for jobs that are in high demand with low job saturation. Like computer science then you can minor in whatever you like. It's just a backup plan. đ„±đđđđœ
Same here! In 20 years old (gonna be 21 next Tuesday) and I have to spend an extra year in university.
I'm here wondering why I haven't been recommended this channel years ago...but better late than never I supoose
This channel found me at the age of 19 years old. Iâm still in college trying to figure my life out. I took a semester off due to my mental health. I changed my major and to psychology in hopes to become a LMFT after undergrad.
Recent civil engineer grad here. Although civil engineering is âsaturatedâ, there are many disciplines within civil engineering that you can transition into with the same degree. I got a job as an entry level structural engineer after graduation and I love it. Just because itâs âvery saturatedâ doesnât mean you wonât get a job. Like any other career, you must try your best to stand out to recruiters.
Thanks for sharing that Jose.. Cheers!
The author here states engineering field will not get saturated. I would agree because of the heavy math and science coursework. Calculus 1, 2 and 3. Chemistry 1, Physics etc. đââïž

I reccomend earning a stats cert or data science cert with your degree. It's like 8-10 more courses to your degree.
Why? Because the only jobs you will find worth your salt(salary).
Is in bioinformatics/bio data science.
I originally planned on med school as well. 3yrs post graduation I'm going back to school for a masters in data science
Thanks for the insight!
Well the plan is to go to medical school afterwards, but if that fails I will get a masters! Thanks!
@@alexmoore5970 bioinformatics students here.. meanwhile in my country this course is well i could say 90% of the students here never heard about it.
One more thing on Computer Science that is in demand and will be in the future would be Information Security/Cyber Security as the increase in IoT will create more security vulnerabilities in systems or software.
Agreed!

History majors can go on law. My friends dad studied history at Yale and is currently a partner at his firm. Youâre an idiot if you just judge degrees based on having absolutely no idea what itâs really about

As a Network Engineer making over 6 figures, I cannot stress the idea enough of getting practical experience while getting your degree. I benefitted from being in the military while getting my degree, BUT this experience can be expressed in many ways. From entry level IT positions, to documenting your own lab work, to getting CERTIFICATIONS. Many "entry level" IT engineering positions require 3 years minimum of experience... CRAZY.
My husband graduated with Help Desk Degree from 2 year program in the midwest. All the jobs open with no experience were temp jobs for one year. It was not a permanent position with all the benefits. It did not work out for him. He also had a 2 yr accounting degree but it did not open doors either. His brother has a 4 yr accounting degree and got his CPA - worked out better- plus his brother lived in a larger city.
My son is working on an engineering degree and is also working at an engineering firm in a large city. She earns $80k a year salary without the 4 yr degree.

I graduated in mechanical engineering and went straight into project management for a petroleum company.

Engineers do NOT have job security for life. My uncle the Silicon Valley engineer got laid off during the dot com bust and was unemployed for two years. My mom bailed him out, even though she was only a librarian. I got a degree in computer science in the '90's, thinking it would be a meal ticket for life. But what is computer science? A field of knowledge that is obsolete by the time you have mastered it. Almost nothing I learned in school is still relevant. I am in my fifties now and have been unable to get an IT job for the last two years. Also, tech jobs are increasingly being outsourced. If you are a software engineer making a six figure salary, I guarantee you there is some smart guy in India who will do your job for ten dollars an hour, and it is only a matter of time before your employer figures this out.
Damn, makes a lot of sense... Now I don't know what I want to do anymore
@@N.N01 Donât listen to him. Him and his uncle made the mistake of not learning new things as their career went on. As he already said, and I agree with, his schooling was outdated by the time he graduated. That is 100% true. But this is not a field where you get your degree, get a job, and then youâre done. You must keep doing certificates, keep up to date on programming languages, etc. You want to know why his uncle didnât get rehired? Because be didnât keep up to date on stuff. Might be a bit harsh, but itâs the truth. Same as him.
High school teaches you nothing, college doesnât teach you much ether for Computer science. However, itâs 2021. You can learn Python, C++, C#, Html, etc for free. You can do personal projects to put in your portfolio to separate you from other people. A college degree is the hoop you have to get through, but once you jump through it, there is MANY hoops you have keep doing. Thatâs just the way life is.
However, if you
-Know your shit whenever it comes to CS
-are a likable, enjoyable person
-have great communication skills
You will get a job.
This thing he is saying about some guy from India taking your jobs, that will be for the lower level programming jobs that you donât even want to do. There is no chance that a company like Amazon, or any start up for that matter, would hire a Software Engineering Manager who barely speaks English. Trust me, you do not want the job who that Indian guy is taking anyway. Learn your shit, keep up to date on your shit, and you are good to go.
@@levibeam100 thank you for this.
From India đ lol...
Half of the population is engineer so yeah right
D.R. I completely agree with Levi Beam. I am an engineer, 58 years old, BSEE â85, working for semiconductor firm in Austin TX. I have never been laid off. Here is how you survive... keep tabs of your employerâs financial health. Compute revenue per employee and compare it against competitor companies. If the company is not making money, eventually, something will happen. It is always better to leave at your terms. Never be caught lying. Read and internalize the â7 Habits of Effective Peopleâ. Work more hours than your peers...BUT... only do so if you are learning a new skill. If you are finding something that is repetitive, automate it by coding (learn Python). Choose to learn skills that will be useful even if you are laid off. If you cannot get along with your immediate manager, look for lateral move. Be positive and have a sense of humor. In your immediate group... always make sure there is at least one person less productive than yourself (hopefully HE/SHE will get laid off... not you). Do not fear failure it is how you learn. Only be annoying if end up always right all the time... otherwise, just stop being annoying. Try to do favors to as many people as you can... this is how your reputation is established. It is always harder to lay off someone who is reputed to be well liked.
Basically any degree that is more technical and skill oriented.

"steer clear of mechanical because its hard to get a job"
me with a full time offer with a top aerospace company in my senior year
Same, I also have an offer with an amazing aerospace company with an Electro-Mechanical engineering degree. I don't know what Shane is on, but personally I think mechanical engineering is much, much more lucrative and applicable than he thinks it is. Engineering degrees are so valuable, there are so many different paths you can take with an engineering degree, and mechanical engineers are always in demand. I don't think Shane quite grasps how valuable a mechanical engineering degree is, especially when mechanical engineers understand electronics and electrical engineering.
I hear that. I became a mechanical engineering major because I wanted the ability to have a major thatâs more wide ranged. Instead of choosing something like aerospace engineering where itâs more hard set what you do after college. With mechanical you can change your mind late in the game of the specifics you want to do and itâs ok.

How come this was posted 4 years ago but the title says 2023??
Tip when you're doing undergrad diversify your studies and make sure to study abroad/ go on an internship or do research. a key part of being successful isnt just getting a piece of paper but proving you are knowledgeable and hardworking. In my Russian classes almost every person had a second degree like business, political science, engineering. alone those can be good but combined with that extra skill is what set alot of my classmates apart.
That is a good tip Chase. Someone better read this
Great tip! For my case, I worked full time in the company and as a part time teacher previously. So it is beneficial to have more skillsets. Whether soft or hard skills, and always stay competitive and upgrade yourself. If one day you were not doing what you are doing. And plan on a career switch. It would be much easier as you have something to fall back on. One would also learn more skills and be more self disciplined as handling more school work or jobs has more responsibilities as well. So while one can have a main career path, it's good to diversify as well like what you have stated. And also to be able to know everything about something, and something about everything
Well said.

Depending on the school.
Some schools, you can do master in fiance even if you have a bachelor degree in Engineering, some school required you to have taken all pre requisite courses, some schools only accept you if you have a degree in Fiance.

But finance doesnt pay half bad as well
â@deutschelehrer69 depends on what you do. Finance has alot of high paying opportunities
As a 16 year old who is trying to decide on what to study since I am on a fast track this is somewhat helpful. I always wanted to be in the STEM field, but engineering has never peaked my interest. I am debating on just going through with a Mathematics degree since it encompasses many careers, but does not give you a direct one. You cannot just rely on the fact that you have a math degree, if it is not a PhD, and would have to build up a resume in different backgrounds.

Fucking preach it! Success in the arts depends on your creative capacity and hard work first and foremost, but everyone that pursues and sees through art education already has those two factors in check (Some more than others, but all definitely have enough to get by in their field).

If you can get all these factors in check and keep on pursuing your passion, success is bound to materialise and follow.
blaise robert yes - I was thinking you canât really learn acting from a coach - it takes practice, and theater majors get that practice acting in front of an audience and seeing how the production of a play works from start to finish.

- difficult subjects that may take you some time to learn.
-hard to find tutorials on specific problems
-you cant half do your work. Your code either works or it doesnt meaning if you work hours on a project and it still doesnt work... it doesnt work

Girl, take a moment to think about your math teacher. 90% of the time, you don't suck at math, it's your shitty teacher. Do you have a good teacher? If not, self teaching is easier than one might think. I have a few tips:
Of course you've heard that you should practice a lot, but remember to practice in a circle manner. Like, do radians then do trig then do variation then do radians again.
-Have a notebook where you write down how to do each type of math, just once in a clear way.
-When you do silly mistakes, just write a little note next to your mistake. This works, idk how.
-don't try to actively memorise formulas, just practice a lot. You'll remember them.
-Have a sheet of paper glued to your desk, filled with formulas. Look at it everytime you do math.
-Read your math textbook like you'd read any other textbook. The examples the little text bubbles are all really helpful.

-you can do this

Hey I really need some advice đ I'm a depressed 16 year old with a shit ton of mental health issues so motivation is a HUGE problem for me. And it's also a big reason why I'm on the verge of failing all my classes in high school. For me to be motivated, I have to be doing smth I LOVE. The problem is that the only things I love are psychology and acting. I want to pursue at least one of them and say fuck money but ik that's just gonna make me end up on the streets. I keep on debating with myself if I'd be ready to go for a PhD if I go for psychology but I honestly can't trust myself and how bad my mental health will be a few years down the lain. I'm not by any means super smart so STEM has always been an impossible choice but money is also important. But I also hate office jobs. It feels like I'm cornered and everything was set up against me. What should I do?
I envy those people who knows exactly their goal/ career/ job in life
Just takes good planning
Thankyou for the advice but i don't know my passion yet and I feel my time is running out
Believe me, you're not alone.
literally same everyone knows what they want to be and everything then thereâs me âŠ
I work in HR and everyone thought it was a dumb idea. Now theyâre just laughing haha. I absolutely love HR, itâs great to be in my position
Did you go to college to get a degree? Some jobs I heard just require a certificate and no degree
icedoutelite I did go to college to get a degree! My company currently pays for me to get my masters
whales312 very nice, my college doesnât have HR as a major, did you major in HR or something else that lead into HR?
Great whales312. Best of luck to you
Iâm considering hr as well. What was your degree in?
For those who are thinking of majoring in computer science or related tech fields, one area you might want to specialize is Cybersecurity. Cybersecurity is one of the most talked about jobs across the world not only in the US. There are hundreds of thousands of jobs out there in the US alone and most of them are unfilled and companies cannot find qualified workers no matter how hard they try. They say you have 0% unemployment rate after graduating in cybersecurity degree.
True! Cyber Security will be a thing in the future. Thanks for your input. Cheers!
My dad's friend works in the cybersecurity domain for a high end bank in Switzerland. He earns just under 500,000 dollars a year and gets some benefits.
Do you think it's realistic for someone to get a good cyber security job with a math degree?
how difficult is is?
In the military at the moment and might lat move to cyber security mos. U think I still need a degree?
I'm a Covid19 senior and I start university in Puerto Rico in some days. I wanted engineering but my parents wanted me to stay closer to home so I decided to go for Computer Science. Thanks to you I don't regret it at all and now I know what to specialize in. Thanks a lot :)
Welcome
Hi Shane. Thank you for this video. I am in a weird place right now. I've been unemployed since March due to the pandemic and the statewide lockdown as well as my own health issues. It took forever for me to finish my degrees and certificates and because of how my life turned out I feel it was a waste of time. I am definitely ready to pivot to something else. I have enrolled in a career exploration class at a local community college to help me find a new path. I was originally a graphic design major but became frustrated because I couldn't find a steady full-time job that paid well. I switched to fine art in order to be able to do my own work but haven't been very successful financially. I've been told that graphic designers make between $30,000.00 and $100,000.00 a year. I've also learned that if I have my work licensed I can have a steady stream of income from the use of my art. I only mention all this because art and design didn't make the top 5 list. Any thoughts or suggestions?
Hey Kerry! I appreciate you sharing that and seeking my advice. Sorry to hear about you getting laid off. Anyway, let me leave you with this video. Good luck in everything Kerry
