Oh you didn't know it? Everyone on SNet holds a Master's or working towards getting their PhD. Some of 'em are also astronauts and work part time at NASA. :P
:lol: White lies man! It would be better if they lied just a tiny bit. It is funny how everyone here is between 21-23(according to a recent poll) yet everyone has a masters degree at least? That's bullshit!

LooL that's Somalis for u sxb, ur just gonna have to take everything people say here with a grain of salt.

About the age thing, I've noticed alot of young people joining this place more and more. Kids nowadays have iPhones, Samsung, and iPads. I wouldn't even be surprised if 15 or 16yr olds are here.

Yh, that's what most people told me too.

Most people graduating around me end in a very different
career of their designed major.

My life long dream is to be like Buraanbur. She not only has her Masters, but she is doing her PhD and still finds time to post on SNet.

Talk about walking and chewing a gum at the same time, while smoking that Canadian Geedo.

If I could go back with my current knowledge, I would have tossed school in the bushes and started going after the bread the proper way.

In this world, it's who u know not what u know.

Some fields DO require degrees. Mainly engineering, medicine, tech, computer science and law.

I couldn't do my job without the coding skills I learned in uni.

It is most of the social sciences that are dubious and not really needed in the business world.

You're correct in saying a degree in technology, software engineering and computer science will take you far but most degrees are useless if they're not hard science or maths. I have friends and people that work in fortune 500 companies, unless u know someone from the inside, it's hard to get a job. Most of My nyggas do not have degrees but make 30Gs more than others with degrees. Companies are more interested in experience and not necessarily book smarts.

I can vouch what Advo wrote above. I know this Caucasian dude, after Uni, he went to one of the Ashrams in India and lived a simple life with Hari Krishnas, when he matured, he shed the hippie lifestyle and was parachuted into a job as an investment banker because his family were privileged. He is a social sciences graduate and earns triple the wages of the mathameticians who work for his firm as bonuses. One major factor that assists college students to land a proper and well paying job is how well they have established contacts or a network of different students from different backgrounds. Join the different clubs at the university.

In Europe the whites are racist as fuck and basically never hire non-whites for managerial positions without degrees. The only people that get away with managerial positions without degrees are white people. All others have to prove themselves with qualifications.
