@MYOS1634:
If an accounting grad makes $43K right out of college and a biology grad makes $33K, then which is going to be able to pay off that loan faster, save up for a down payment faster, save up money for an advanced degree faster, start saving up for retirement sooner or just have more discretionary income and a better lifestyle?
Yes, I had pointed out (#45) that there are ~60,000 biology grads and a similar number in other biology-related fields.
