Ha ha. Ain't that the truth? If anything, the aviation schools will tell you a load of b.s. to get you to sign up for their worthless degree.

I went to an aviation college but I went for nursing. One day I got frustrated with the nursing program and went over to the aviation people to talk to them about changing my major. The head honcho over there suggested I "definitely change my major to aviation if I want to become an airline pilot". He went on to say that "a nursing degree may actually hurt you in trying to get an airline job". That sentence right there sealed my fate. I stayed with the nursing. I mean, I can be an airhead sometimes but I am not completely stupid. What a load of crap!!!! If anything, I think the nursing degree helped me stand out when talking to airline recruiters later on. It also gave me something to fall back on.
