need some real comments on stats

hey, I’m planning to major in stats(probably combined with econ), and I’ve been seriously looking into the program. But ngl, I’ve come across a lot of mixed to negative opinions—people saying the courses are low quality, that the job prospects aren’t great, and that grad school is almost a must.

idk if that’s just a vocal minority or if there’s actually some truth to it, so I’d love to hear real experiences from people who have gone through the Stats program.

What was the course quality like? If you had to do it all over again, would you still pick Stats? If not, what would you switch to?

It’s honestly been really hard for me to make a decision. I chose Science mainly because I wanted to study Stats, but now I’m hearing all these negative things and I’m starting to second-guess everything😭😭
