Another interesting thing : remember all those career paths they told us about in high school? You know, where they went over the average pay for various undergrad degrees as a newly hired graduate?

Well, where did those numbers come from? Does an electrical engineer, newly hired, really make 58k (or whatever it is today) on average?

Just wondering, because it seems like this bias problem could only be fixed by calculating salaries by carefully examining IRS tax forms.

People are free to have whatever opinions they have. That two people agree on a thread isn't exactly grounds for criticism. Particularly if those opinions conflict with yours. Just means more than one person isn't buying what you are selling, Tupak. East Siders/Biggie fans unite.

LMAO

Me and Pardi know each other outside these forums. I'm just giving him a hard time 🙂

As an engineer, based solely on job offers I/friends of mine received around graduation, yes, engineers make 48-58k starting on average. Regionally dependant of course. But I have no idea where the career advisors actually get the data.
