You obviously didn't read the post.
There was no cheap shot at software engineers, it's a fact that software engineers are a dime a dozen. Look at the job market. As someone who works in IT and is quite familiar with the market for software engineers I can confidently say that you are incorrect in your statements, even if they were misplaced to begin with. The music reference was just that, a reference. As it stands, music majors constitute the highest population of accepted medical school students, nationwide - thus the reference. I stated nowhere in my original post that one major was more difficult than another; I simply illustrated that every major, when investigated deeply enough, has its share of difficult coursework. Thus it's unfair to rank one over the other. Adcoms aren't interested in someone who does just enough to get A's, they are looking for people with a genuine curiosity of the world around them, people who motivate themselves to keep learning, people who make a choice to major in something they are truly interested in.
And since you enjoy speaking in generalities because your ego was hurt, please produce the data that supports your argument that software engineering is more difficult than music. After all, it's a well accepted fact at your school so it must be the truth. If you're going to make blanket statements, please present us with more than your own personal experiences.
