The median salary is actually useful. The mean is simply the average and gives you no information pertaining to the number or percentage of students with salaries in different ranges. The median shows that 50% of the graduates earn above and below that amount. So if you are considered the top half of the class then you have a good shot at earning the median or above it, albeit there are tons of other factors that will come into play.
