    I guess you have to compare Apple to Apple......and depend on your interest it may vary......my preference is still Civil.....if it's not suit to you.....think about and get a decision on going forward...
    Anyway best of luck....

    I do not know the reply because you did not answer. Then how can I know that?

    Yes. I also need more practical answers but not bullshit told by PM's,company owners or some other stupid people to convince you. :)

    This thread will be more useful to someone who want to start university education if we talk about the reality. You or I cannot decide their career. But they ought to be taught the real facts. They will decide based on the real facts. So please be kind enough to speak truth. :yes::)
