Well said, Allie.
I was a Creative Writing major and was often dumped on -- people would say "Of Course your G.P.A. is high--you don't have tests"
No I didn't have tests, but I did have to compete for entry into every class. Writing samples submitted and if the prof didn't think it was good enough you didn't get into a class you needed for graduation.
No major is easy. I could no more be a math major than (I am generalizing) a math major could write a 20 page manuscript to gain access to Adv Fiction Writing.
We all choose to do that which we love and, consequently are good at.
And we should all be proud of each other and each other's choices. It takes all different kinds of people with all different kinds of talents to make this world run.
