music comes in at 4

@Based Rai well got withdrawals ATM

orchestras don't really want music degrees, they want conservatoire accreditations, which are different but technically at the same level as a degree @That one muppet slut w/ a guitar

art history at 3, thats a no brainer

psychology..... color me shocked

no gender studies 🤔

@coattailsandbowties Lots of my uni friends went to conservatoires after their Honours degree to do Masters etc. Many are full-time employed in orchestras etc.

Fight through em mate should pass @Dimorac

@Ruger it's a really big thing atm tho

In the UK with a compsci degree you can basically instantly get a fairly decent paying job. Then it goes up to higher with more experience. My current compsci teacher was making £100k/y but apparently it was draining

you're almost guaranteed a job somewhere

@Ruger thats just a communications degree.

for whaman

@Ruger I only did music because I wasn't good at anything else. And to be fair I make decent money from music.

@Tailed Feature I was considering a postgrad somewhere for singing but I don't have *quite* enough skill for it.

we dont really have "communications" degrees here i think

mate of mine from southampton has a job offer he doesn't need to finish his degree and he has a 40k starting salary straight out of uni

what a guy

my voice just isn't quite there though I make a solid choir singer.

It was voice that I studied. Then I got nodules. My voice hasn't been the same since.

shit really???

that's crap

there are ''jobs'' for gen studies atm with the outrage culture but anyone taking one now will end up working in retail within 10 years

Yeah, I dropped out of college so....

And I have 2 useless qualifications in music

@sweatercowsandsass drop out gang

I'll be honest, I dont really know what I want to do

Like career wise

Me neither, Nicolle. 😉

I thought I did know, but apparently not

Gender studies doesn’t get you a ‘job’ but you can use it to build a career in journalism or activism

i'm sorta just floating from job to job atm

not fun

Yeah same

@Jim major corps hire them as diversity officers

You’ll be freelance mostly. Almost all prominent grievance activists are

it says something about the state of society atm that you can make a career out of activism

but that trend is gonna go away

Wish i had an actual outline of what i wanted to do tbh

a limited job
