I'm a physical therapist. I honestly think I would've either become a physician (non surgeon) or just gone into construction as I've become much more interested in building and carpentry since I entered my 30s. Pie in the sky would've went into zoology as I worked at audubon when I was a kid and wanted to pursue this but they don't make a damn thing.
I'm actually going to get a general contractors license in about 6 months.

Definitely happy where I'm at in life, but I would have majored in ecology, horticulture or environmental science. They were always my favorite classes in undergrad.

I majored in broadcast journalism and work in the sports media now and that's pretty great but I took for granted all the weekends I had off. I only have off weird days now and I never get to make it back home for Baylor football games.
It's cool getting to go to a lot of the DFW sports events, but sometimes I wish I could just watch college football on saturday and get trashed with my friends.

I majored in Biochem. Love what I do, but every once in awhile I wish for something more easy going.
I'd love to be a botanist or an electrician.

I'm an engineer in the oilfield. I always thought the medical field would of been a better career. Wish I had given it more thought. There is always sick people. No up and down cycles with that career.

I'd absolutely do engineering

I definitely would've picked culinary. Unfortunately they didn't offer it back then.

The grass is not always greener. I see many who I was envious of, with more money who are unhappy people. But if you're going to spend the money for college, get a degree that has value. otherwise, don't bother.

Yes. I would go back and get an engineering degree.

I did mechanical engineering. Only thing I would change would be putting more effort into it, and maybe some time in the service immediately post-graduation.

shite yeah man. Companies are hiring welders right out of school for $35+/hr now. I met this chick welder that was making $42/hr at her first job and all she did was go to welding school

Part of me wanted to do trade school.
If I HAD to change my major from mechanical, I would have done chemical.

Currently majoring in meteorology. Too far along to switch. If I could I'd switch to math education
Funny because if I could go back, I'd do meteorology.

Would have never started out in Chemical Engineering.

I certainly can't complain...Computer Science has served me well.
I do sometimes think an Industrial Engineering degree would have been a better fit for me...interfacing to the real world with controls and sensors. My buddy gets to design and build some cool stuff for light industrial applications.
