Major: (This Major's Salary over time)
I AM A BRIGHT STUDENT WHO HAD A TOUGH FAMILY BACKGROUND AND VERY LITTLE MONEY. IT TURNS OUT THAT UNC WAS PERFECT FOR ME. IT IS PROBABLY THE LOWEST PRESSURE ELITE PUBLIC SCHOOL I HAVE FOUND (I TAUGHT AT THE UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA, SO I HAVE SOME PERSPECTIVE). IT IS A GREAT PLACE TO BE A PRE-MED. I TOOK A TON OF MATH AND SCIENCE CLASSES AND COULD NEVER FIGURE OUT WHO WAS PRE-MED. YOU JUST DID THE WORK AND IF YOU KNEW IT, YOU SCORED WELL. MY TWIN BROTHER WENT TO DUKE AND ALTHOUGH A GREAT SCHOOL, IT WAS MUCH MORE OF A GRIND. I ALSO FELT THAT I WAS THE BEST PREPARED STUDENT (AT LEAST MATHEMATICALLY) IN MY PH.D. PROGRAM (ECONOMICS). DONT' GO IF YOU ARE LAZY. YOU MAY GET A DEGREE BUT YOU CAN TAKE CRAPPY CLASSES AND COME OUT WITH AN AVERAGE EDUCATION. DO GO IF YOU WANT TO LEARN AND NOT HAVE TO DEAL WITH A LOT OF GRADE/SOCIAL PRESSURE. NOT THAT UNLIKE MANY SOUTHERN SCHOOLS, FRATS DO NOT LOOM LARGE.
