Is it true that a bio degree is worse (in terms of employment

unlikely
there are plenty of jobs in labs

Any degree is what you make of it. If you're expecting to get a degree, do nothing else while you're a student and still land a job afterwards, you're a moron. This is true for any field, not just the ones you have listed.

This.

But it all comes down to what you do in college. For ANY major, you need internships. Science degrees, it is even more critical that you have multiple internships under your belt before you graduate. You should have an internship no later than your junior year. One over each summer break, and one during the school year, for at least two years. Employers expect kids to have experience the day they graduate. The paper isn't enough anymore. Do your time in some labs and you won't have any trouble getting a job with a bio degree.

I recently declared my major as Bio, but I came across this today

I know it's 4 years old, but t's pretty disheartening. I understand that just getting a degree isn't everything, but I'd at least like to make the best choice possible. It makes doing all of the chem and math seem pointless if you can more easily get by with an easier degree.

Yes, if looked at this way:

Any STEM degree fits you for that specific field, but not really for anything else.

Any Liberal Arts degree gives you skills (reading, writing, research, analysis) that are transferable to a wider range of business fields.

jeez you actually have no idea what you're talking about. How is a degree in physics, mathematics, engineering, computer science, or any other STEM majors not transferable when all you do is logical problem solving and critical thinking skills that are actually USED in business?
>Liberal Arts degree gives you skills
>reading, writing,
Do you seriously believe that a stem major can't read nor write?
