Findings: https://www.payscale.com/data/biggest-college-regrets
Caveate: I did not find the total number of responders, and this is
basically gleaned through an online survey, so that may not be the most
representative, but it still may be of interest to some.
Take-away: Basically, don't take on school debt (#1 regret for all), and don't choose a lower paying direction unless you can handle you neighbor earning more than you do without coveting, hehehe.
Also, if you're going into English or the Humanities (which I did, and I'm happy I did), make sure you go to a good school that will teach you good things (ideally, a sound, rigorous Christian education)...it's easy for the Liberal Arts (which should be among the highest pursuits) to degenerate into a political-correctness freak show (as 46 of 52 "top" schools no longer even require a Shakespearean class for English Lit. majors, which was noted this past week in a Wall Street Journal article).
