- gojomo 7y agoThanks! The CBS write-up is really, really awful – from the headline (about respondents regretting "their degrees" as opposed to having a mix of debt/topic/networking/institution/etc regrets) to the confusing prose descriptions of alternating "regret" or "no regrets" levels. The raw tables, & accompanying descriptions, at your link are much clearer.
- ereyes01 7y agoThis should really be the posted article, it has all the original data and conclusions.
- analog31 7y agoI looked through the article. I'd be skeptical about interpreting what people actually regret. Do they regret not choosing another major? Which major? Would they have been successful / happy in that major? Do they regret not going to a cheaper college? Do they regret not getting a job after high school? What job? Would they have been happy in that job?
