College Major, Age, Occupation, Salary

here is why wrote:

It is because some on here want to show off how much they make. Most people that make less wont say it because they will feel inferior. Obviously they are out there.

I would take a guess that most people that provide these details were tools in high school/college and just need the attention because they dont receive it anywhere else.

People that post their salary/pr's want self satisfaction that they are better than others. Does all this even matter tomorrow that you mentioned it?

What they dont realize is that they are talking to letsrun....

I'm pretty sure they realize they are talking to letsrun, given that they are posting on the letsrun website

Major: Mechanical Engineering

Age: 18

Occupation: College student

Salary: I get $100 monthly for spending money from my parents. I typically blow it on Moe's or Chipolte when the dining hall sucks.

I may switch to pre-med, though. Still got five more years.

And mine was actually honest!!!

What if I told you the AVERAGE engineering major makes over 60K upon graduation? That would mean more than half do, right?

I would say that would be a typical engineer not understanding statistics. The mean of salaries is almost higher than the median because a few very large offers raise the mean higher than the median.
