by Senpai, I mean a teacher from the school

you get an MBA as a 1-year postgrad cause it's a bunch of nothing to do over 3 or 4 years

Unironically you need to use your freshman year to figure out what your real interests are. Take a MTBI personality test if you have no idea. If your goal is consulting or finance then a business degree then MBA is a standard path, but do realize you have to maintain a high gpa to be competitive. If you’re gonna slack off and end up with a marketing degree or bullshit MIS degree (CS for retards) then you are better off studying engineering or CS, as a B and C engineering student will come out of undergrad making twice as much as any non-ibanking business major. I’m not really sure how good going into VC is because anecdotally I’ve heard good and bad things, and at this point I don’t get why people still do accounting since for a major that requires an MPA and CPA testing they come out of school making half what many engineers do.

You're on the wrong board faggot. This is a board for pajeets to shill their shitcoins and supplementing poor financial decisions with pinkmemes. This isn't Wall Street Oasis.

I've always been interested in finance but, I want to be as competitive as possible. Nevertheless, advice appreciated.

this board gave me the best financial advice of my life a year ago. I only regret not investing enough to make it, and not taking crypto seriously.

>engineering
no
>comp-sci
sure

Visit the engineering general on /sci/ if you want to see the truth about engineering, and the truth is that it sucks. My personal story is that I couldn't find a job after undergrad, and only received calls from third party recruiters trying to fill absolute shit bottom of the barrel positions where you're essentially a drafter/technician. Instead I went into a PhD program which I just completed and it's an exact repeat of undergrad.

No one wants to hire engineers straight out of school. Worse yet, engineering attract guys in their late 20s and 30s that have ~10 years of experience and decided to go back to school. Those guys will also apply for entry level positions, but they have work experience, which may be relevant if they did trades or something technology related, and more importantly, they have ~10 years of personal connections that you don't. I do currently have a job, and my title is "engineer" but the job sucks and had I know this is where I would end up I would have never considered going into engineering. All the "senior engineers" are boomers that refuse to retire so advancement is pretty much impossible without switching companies.

You want a degree that old fucks don't pursue, in a field that preferably actively discriminates against old fucks, which is why comp-sci is a much better choice.

The. Fucking. Truth.

Go engineering / CS and get a 4.0 then make more money with a BS than you would with a MBA anyway. Why the fuck do you idiots plan 6+ years of college. Just get the school shit over with. Once you land your first job and get 2-3 years experience no one gives a fuck what education you have. Its a complete waste of time money. Try to get the fuck out of that loan too and go to a school you got a scholarship too or is cheaper. Where you go to undergrad literally doesn't matter at all. You just need the degree and a good GPA to get a good job with a career path and get the fuck out of school, debt, and start actually making money and doing real work.

it's a pointless degree
you will know nothing that any MBA doesn't also know.
if i'm a tech company looking to hire someone with an MBA, i'm obviously going to take the guy with expert domain knowledge in my field.
if you prefer a liberal arts degree you can try math or even a language degree

depends on the type of engineering you do tbqh
you want to do chemical, electrical, or computer engineering. stay away from mechanical engineering, the field is glutted.
