As someone who went to University I don’t find this surprisingly at all. I think about 50% or so of all my friends and classmates are not even in the same profession.

Most degrees are useless and you won’t have a career out of it. You won’t get a job when you graduate from Arts or Sciences, maybe unless you want to teach.

All the other degrees like law, engineering, etc are very competitive to get actually hired. There are more spots for students than there are jobs.

Some students didn't graduate yet become successful in life. As for me, it isn't all about the profession but skills. There are lots of high-paying jobs these days that don't require any professional attainment. Yes, having a degree is an advantage but since we're in the modern-day generation, we could easily acquire skills easily online and through other resources that could provide us a good job in the end.
