Here’s the ultimate question about BC arts and sciences. What job will you get with a major out of there. You can’t transfer into the business school, says so right on the website. So what major from the arts and sciences put you in a position with a real good job. I see the following

1. computer science

2. economics maybe
3 math maybe

The other majors are like all pre med or pre law majors. This is my problem with BC, though I love the school You spend 61 k this year and where is the focus on skills. The core curriculum is great but if you are in arts and sciences, not education or business or nursing, where do you get the skills to make above 50k a year. Yea you can get a teller job in the bank with some of these majors and go right into grad school, which is not what businesses want you to do, but where are the skills to go right into work in the STEM areas of study. I just dont see it. If somebody knows, please let me know. Thanks.
