I am pleased that political science and philosophy are both up there, disappointed but unsurprised about maths and economics.
This creates a new dilemma for someone like me who studies fields of disparate hotness rankings. Say I were to go into academia, should I go into economics and hope that I stand out by comparison? Or should I move into political science or philosophy and hope that the generally more attractive nature of these disciplines rubs off on me in some way?
Most perplexing. Perhaps I will just become a fireman.
