Just no jobs available, or are you in a weak area for jobs in that field?

Yeah, why would she pick a new career? There are so many opportunities for women in sports administration positions. Look at colleges and universities, they need women to fill the Title IX void. Unless the pay isn't good enough -- which is the case for many sports jobs. Or, unless the politics don't want to be played -- and I can understand that 100%!

I'd do Biomedical Engineering instead of Electrical.

My fiance would choose a new career. Instead of Sport Administration (nothing) she would go into sports physiology or some health science.
Don't tell OU grads that Sports Administration = nothing; they have the best school in the country for that! :laugh:

No question I would have been accepted (had a few examples from my county that got into West Point and AFA that had far inferior numbers that I did). And I would have enjoyed the opportunity to have travelled at a youngish age - would probably have made me better rounded.
I sometimes regret not going to the Naval Academy for the same reasons. I'm generally happy with where I ended up, but still, I can't help but wonder how different my life would be.

I would do it the same, but like others would have started down this path much sooner. I started out in computer science, switched to mechanical engineering, then architecture, took some time off from school and then went back to school part time for architecture and then switched back to computer science. (part time until I finished school because I had a full time job and a kid.)

I know I'd do it more often if I could do it again.
