How much does a college degree matter?

Posted by admin
art-nerd asked:


I am especially looking for answers from college grads. Do you think a Bachelors degree, for the most part, is useless as far as getting a better job and/or salary? What about a Masters Degree? I know people with Masters who can’t get a full-time job because there are so many more people out there now with PhD’s or Doctorates to compete with. Is this a new development, or has it been this way all along? What have your experiences been?

      For the teacher and the teacher was observing told me to get masters bc those who employ you are more educated in it does not mean you are more educated in it.
