Philosophy a good major?

<p>

<p>That makes little sense. I’d love to see the statistics (GPA’s) for those that double major, specifically, the grades in each major. </p>

<p>btw: Phil majors at Cal Berkeley have a lower mean GPA than those in the largest premed major, micro-bio. (Phil at Cal just has a brutal curve relative to most colleges.)</p>

<p>fwiw: my D double-majored as an undergrad, and as it turns out, her second major, Philosophy, had a higher GPA than her first major. Partly that was due to the fact that she was a much better writer by the time she started taking Phil courses in the second semester of her Soph year.</p>

<p>That is a fallacy. There is no way someone who can only score a 1500 on the SAT will have have the brain processing power to clear 170. Never.</p>
