Commerce has no scope? Don't take it; high‑pay jobs are for science grads

[Pillai]

Just look at LinkedIn – all the FAANG engineers, HFT traders, product managers, investment bankers, MBB consultants, private‑equity, venture‑capital and hedge‑fund folks are from a science background. In IIMs, about 90 % of students come from science streams. Yes, there's academic diversity, but they mostly prefer science students.

This hits hard.
I'm stuck in my career, can't afford a CFA, and don't want to pursue CA.

[Tarun]

BTech + MBA and 5+ yrs of experience.

[Parth]

Even science folks are struggling to get jobs.

[Nath]

Not every science or engineering job is a high‑paying gig. I'm a mechanical engineer working in the MEP sector; it took me a few years of struggle to land a decent, well‑balanced job.

I see many of my IT friends getting high‑income roles, though.

Focus on upskilling the stream you like. Money and everything else will follow later.

Remember, not every career is a fancy, high‑paying one.

[Bharat]

That's not true, man.

Someone doing BTech and not learning anything 'real' is in the same spot as a B‑Com graduate.

CFA and CA aren't the only paths for B.Com degree holders.

Pick a niche in commerce – finance, marketing, HR – and start working towards it from the first year. All these fields are huge.

No HFT company comes to a regular college, bro. They only recruit from top IITs, not even NITs.

And with an MBA, you'll be the cream of the crop!

How old are you??

[Harry]

Yeah, most commerce roles are taken by science people because they couldn't land a job in their own field.

[Swati]

If commerce has no scope, why are science and engineering grads begging for jobs in commerce and management? This post is clueless – what are you even drinking?

[Shivendra]

Do a BCom or BBA and then an MBA. Keep interning while studying and join clubs and committees to build a strong profile. You can do really well with a commerce degree.
