I would have went straight into accounting instead of originally poly sci. I would have been a manager by now.

No I wouldn’t change it either, I would maybe have added a different minor though. I was poly sci which was good for law school but not for any thing else. I’d put something technology in there, but then again that wasn’t big when I went through college.

Priceless 😂

Probably not. Although I last in college and into grad school I really did start loving economics

I’d do something else prolly cause of interest level. Lol.

I was finance and somehow ended up in IT audit. So I’d go back and take a finance gig out of college because now I can’t seem to break back into the industry

I’d switch to computer programming. Dealing with computers > Dealing with people
