what is the purpose of this poll? A bachelors degree is too broad/general. I know people with only a bachelors degree that make thoughout the range you posted. Some work in the field they studied in, others don't.

Are you looking for salary or total income? They are wildly different for me. My total income trumps my salary...

I mentioned income because I know some people own a business and don't necessarily pay themselves a salary. I guess my real question is "how much do you make from your primary job?".

A bachelor's degree in Nuclear Engineering? In Religion?


Too broad a range of degrees there.

Hence the broad range of income choices...

True, But there should be a few more choices added to the sub-$100K selections.

When it comes to holders of only a BS/BA, i'd be willing to bet far more careers pay under $100K than over it.....except here on C-D.

38, B.S. Info Systems, 105K, NYC

Probably underpaid by about 10-20K.

Do you have to have just a bachelor's degree or at least a bachelor's degree?

I think it also depends where you earn that salary. 110k in San Francisco is drastically different than 110k in Kansas City.
