I was originally going to do English at University, but I didn't get a place on the course at the university I wanted to go to, so I took a year out, and decided to instead apply for Computer Science, and now I'm doing an MSc in Information Security. Now none of my university friends who did English have jobs, and most (if not all) of my fellow Computer Science students do. A lot of it boils down to the choice of degree you do, and whether there are any jobs out there for the graduates. English is quite a popular course, but there aren't many jobs going for the graduates, so lots are left behind. Computer Science on the other hand is very undersubscribed, yet the job market is huge.
