re: Do you use anything you learned in undergrad classes toward real world applications?

Not to post on our Baton Rouge message board when you you are a randomTennessee fan?

Accounting, technical writing, insurance, business law, HR Management, and a quite a few of my construction classes.

Better question: What universally required undergrad class does everyone say is useless in the real world post-college?

world history or geography. It's nice to know, but you can get by in like 99% of fields without it.

Engineer, all day and night

I work in healthcare management. I feel like I use psych, communications, and management related classes on the regular.

What common general ed classes do I not feel like I use? Advanced math type classes outside of stats, fine arts, history, and english beyond writing an email

Statistics knowledge is handy.

I use math in my profession, so that was important to me. And I actually liked it. But the real answer here should be English. No matter what profession you are in, this is so important. You need to be able to write a good report, email, etc. Typos are one thing, I prolly have some in this post, but basic English skills are important in the professional world. IMO.

I agree completely. I should have clarified that.

Use about 2% of it

I will say, business English taught me a good bit about email etiquette.
