Great Expectations

A few statistics on getting paid:

  • 82% of college grads expect to make $25,000 or more
  • $39% of graduates from 2014 and 2015 are making $25,000 or less

That means at least 1 in 5 college grads are in for a nasty surprise: making less than they expected. That’s not where you want to be.

So here’s my question:

How did you set your expectation? Where did you find out how much you’d earn with the degree you’re working on, or graduated with?
