rank these degrees best to worst, in terms of employment prospects

economics
accounting and finance
business management
politics, philosophy, economics (PPE)
politics and philosophy (PP) joint honours
sociology
history

PPE goes way up if a top university - especially if Oxford. history above sociology, maybe above PP.

is there much difference between PP and PPE if both from a top uni? Would the extra economics make a huge difference do you think?

They’re all great ones. However sociology is right at the bottom.

how would you rank them?

Economics
Accounting
PPE
Business
PP
History
Sociology

That’s interesting. Personally, I would go:

PPE
Economics
PP
Accounting and finance
History
Business
Sociology

I only said that because I’m more into the social subjects e.g business and accounting. I’m not into politics etc

Yeah I see. What are you studying at uni?

Business 😂. But I ranked it in the middle coz most people think it’s a “soft”/easy degree

nah that's good

What are you doing/planning on doing?

PP lol

Cooolll. Good luck

I was just writing a different post which somewhat relates to this question. The problem is that we might look at 5 year outcomes for graduates as a general thing but no individual is that general. To what extent do top economics graduates do well on average because they chose economics and not history, and to what extent is this success related to very strong maths grades and a focus on financial type jobs? I don't know.
