Chance a rising senior planning on majoring in physics [CA, 4.0/1510]

A lot of BA/BS and PhD graduates in physics do not get jobs in physics, although they may get jobs in somewhat adjacent areas (e.g. some kinds of engineering in more theoretical / engineering science areas and where PE licensing is not needed) or other areas where their quantitative or logical skills are important (finance, computing). High school teaching of physics or math is another route (but typically needs additional teacher education / credentialing).
