A fraternity brother of mine was a philosophy undergrad (at a decent state school) and went on to law school at Duke thanks to his easy philosophy GPA and LSAT score.
All he did was enjoy himself, learn about humanity and the human condition, and to get an A all he had to do was write out his thoughts and opinions. Imagine how cathartic and satisfying that must have been. Overrall he was having the time of his life and will probably end up more successful and satisfied with his life than we will ever be.

You're tilting at windmills guy. I see the connection. But you don't. Here, I'll break it down for you.

OP's picture was a tier list of university degrees. OP did not mention Einstein, you did. The fact that you did indicated that you believe Einstein would've been had the same presence on the common mind as he does today had he studied music in university. I think Einstein's sentiment does well in expressing his passion for the arts, but he did not make it his life's work. I'm saying your input should be disregarded due to its foundation in false or illusory notions. You're feigning intelligence by tagging in Einstein, yet your exposing your ignorance instead.

Are you dense? Do you not see the OP as an affront to Music in general? The same Music Einstein he loved most dearly, in fact, not only that, he credited Music with all his insights , saying that he "think in music". So fuck off with you pretensions, and halfwitted half thought measures of defending your uncultured autistic baseness.

The grass is always greener as they say. Paralegals, PA's, engineers, these are the new baseline. Being smart is no longer enough to get ahead of everyone else. We're in the midst of the thinking man's world now, the working man is running on his last embers. Soon enough the thinking man too will be replaced.

The real top tier move is going into business as a stem major, preferably mathematics. The upper echelons of society are riddled with people like this.

Do what you like and do it better than most people. Someone either in industry or academia will pay you nicely for it. Doesn’t even matter what it is. Just do something you actually, genuinely like. I know it’s a meme among young people to follow your dreams, but financial stability isn’t as elusive as you think if you have humility. Do a high paying job in something you dont like if you feel like you’ll never enjoy work and only enjoy comfort instead.

Also the current economy is fucked, so every tier of stability is getting fucked

I mean the general advice is don’t believe 4chan on its hardest claims. Nobody thinks being a math major is cringey, just like how nobody (except engineering managers and long time industry engineers) believes engineering majors are stupid. It’s true that math majors tend to be a little arrogant and engineers need to use deodorant, but all in all, you find a large number of well to do people in both these fields who go on to work with each other

By what metric are these fields measured? If you go into engineering because your family told you to, scrape by with a C+, and get into a garbage tier low paying job that you hate so much that you dread waking up in the morning, it isn't god tier.

If you love history and making new discoveries, field expeditions and pouring over stats and artifacts, and you are passionate about unlocking the past (and you don't have Indiana Jones misconceptions about the field), archeology could be a god tire career for you.

Perhaps someone loves playing the piano, loves classical music, and it is their passion and life's goal to lead an orchestra one day. While they recognise the need for money in our S O C I E T Y, they don't obsess over it. For them, would music not be a high career choice?

Whoever made that pic, and anyone that unironically bases careers objectively like that, either ignores or doesn't understand that there is a whole world out there full of people who have different interests. To that person, the thought of sitting at a desk making papers or drafting designs is enough to give them a cold sweat, but to another man, that career is his dream.

So to answer OP's question, the pic is accurate only to a specific group of people (aka everyone on this board). But to many other people, it is wholly inaccurate.

Doesn't account for subfield.
Various subfields of theoretical physics are kino while some have been stuck for years.
Theoretical computer science should be next to math and physics since modern complexity theory is on that level
Neuroscience should be separated from psychology
Philosophy usually leads into law
Various subfields of life sciences are really cool
You should qualify different responsibilities of engineering (i.e, process engineering vs engineering research rather than just machE/EE/ChemE/AE/CivE etc etc, since the work you do in engineering is more important that what engineering you do (except maybe licensed civil engineering)
