text: what do you think is a better major? in terms of money and job opportunities which degree is better pharmacy  or business administration? well lets see...  business very easy, you get to party alot and get drunk, and still have time to sleep 8hrs a night. you probably don't have to do schoolwork on the weekend. but your starting salary will probably be $30k / year.  pharmacy very difficult, you will not party and you will not sleep eight hours at night. you will spend alot of time in the library. you will take classes in the summer. you will play ping-pong with the engineers. (the engineers will probably win because they take dynamics and stuff..) you will have to do homework on the weekends.  oh yeah and you will probably start at $90k/ year.   i say go with pharmacy (if you can cut it). btw. i am a civil engineering major and us engineers "look down" on business majors. i think it is a lot more impressive to have a degree in engineering or pharmacy and just take a couple of classes in business, because that is all you really need.
