Changed my major to associate accounting from Associate IT. Currently doing my 2nd semester at a college and trying to transfer to a local university for fall of 2014 or spring of 2015. To go for Bachelor in accounting and minor in international business.

yes if your a STEM major watch Youtube tutorial videos for 3months on java or c# and get into big data operations research if all you care about is money. Data is multiplying rapidly and corporations have no choice but to pay high rates if they want their data mined and modeled. People are making 250k+ at big banks in this field.

Building your portfolio is the single best thing you can do period. I work with guys who have degrees in philosophy, english, language arts, peace studies and all of them got good jobs because they built good impressive applications that prove that they can code.
At the end of the day most CS degree students dont know a line of code to save their life. Remember school pushes Degrees not Careers.
College in the US is seriously ****ed up and expensive its simply not worth it anymore, if all you want is a stable career and financial stability...Timah timah.... forty water....Sprinkle me mayne..

The fact that you think the US is in a recession just sums up how clueless you are lol.
The recession ended in 2009. A recession is defined as two consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth. As you can see in the link's graph, the last time that happened was in 2009. http://www.tradingeconomics.com/unit...tes/gdp-growth
Given your evident ignorance, it is likely that the 60% grad unemployment you've just thrown out is also bullsh!t. Show me some credentials for that.

Thanks LetMeBang,
I was there at age 23 like a lot of you guys (im 29 years old now), fresh out of school with my CE degree and couldnt find a job anywhere. Call me jaded but I am HIGHLY skeptical of the US college system particularly in California. Call me jaded, but I did not learn a single thing that was useful at my time at CAL. I wish I used that money elsewhere to pursue what I was doing now. Literally no one asked my about my degree when I was being interviewed. Only the potential $$$ I brought them as a programmer who can build their new hot app...Timah timah.... forty water....Sprinkle me mayne..

Those are the minority...
What kind of bull**** is in the 2nd sentence? A good CS school will produce students who unlike those majors I bolded, not only know how to program, but the background and outline of their code aka they know why certain things work and why some certain things don't work.
anyone can be a code monkey OP. Also, computer science isn't just about programming, there's a lot of theory involvedPositive vibes crew

A lot of people will agree with me, that 60% of new grads, cant find jobs or are well under paid. But its *******s like you who try to be cool and act like their balling when really their living in tiny dorms paying out of their mind for a piece of paper that means nothing in the real world.
If you want to think otherwise thats your perogative and right. I am just telling you the life I experienced as an early adult...Timah timah.... forty water....Sprinkle me mayne..
