I would like to offer one word of caution when choosing your major. Do you remember the last time the economy was bad? Neither do I. There have been ups and downs, but for the most part the economy has been strong since many of us were inelementary or middle school. Eventually all good things will end and this is when your decision will hold the most importance. I will be getting a degree in Mechanical Engineering in the spring (one more year to party) and fully plan on taking some risks while the economy is strong. Sales offers excellent opportunities to earn big money in commissions if your dedicated. Make no mistake, the engineering curriculum is one of the hardest, most intense undergraduate degree's available ( I envy the amount of free time that my friends in the buisness school have). The advantage is that you do not need to enroll in grad school. Engineers of all sorts are in such high demand that 4 year undergrads even with low GPA's are still getting decient starting offers ($50K + benifits). I highly recomend Engineering but it certainly isn't the easy way out.
