Oh please. JD, MBA, CPA, MD, DPharm, MPA, MLS, MFA, MSW, Bachelors and Masters in Nursing, Physical therapy. . . how many jobs am I up to? I didn't mention pure science or mathematics.

@TheRBReaper I stated that pre-meds often don't major in science. Try again. My point was that a ton of various jobs DO require college, and this includes many that are NOT STEM.
I've known pre-meds majoring in philosophy, anthropology, and of course psychology. Pre-med requires a lot of science, but not a major. In fact, a concentration in, say, chemistry or physics is less valuable to a doctor than a well-chosen array of classes from several sciences, plus perfect grades. Statistics is more valuable to a doctor than advanced calculus. I had enough math to be a physics major, but that's deceptive: the minimum required is nowhere near enough to really do anything with it.
Do you know any pre-med students? Or any smart people, in any field? You should meet some. Also, a logic class might be helpful.

@TheRBReaper If you get in trouble, do you go to an engineer, or a lawyer?
If you insist that doctors are STEM, all right. They aren't unless they go into research, but that hardly changes the basic point.
Given that I have more math than the physics or engineering majors at my university needed to graduate, should I claim I'm in a STEM field? (BTW, Do you know anything about the Symbolic Systems major at Stanford? Philosophy is a required subject. Anyway, you obviously don't know anything about the Symbolic Systems major, etc.)
I don't believe you're an engineer. In my advanced math classes, I never met an engineer whose logic was as poor as yours, asking me what my point was when it was obvious. You also seem to know nothing about what people study at university, or what sorts of jobs a college degree leads to. Looking at your posts as a whole, an attorney would make sure to examine your transcript and contact the registrar to verify it.
