Well, I've come to belive that there is a significant difference in our modern uni system between educations for fields of endevor that were/are 'crafts' (healing professions, art, architecture and several others), extremely demanding and spesific jobs like engineering, physics etc and the majority of social/liberal BA type degrees that are common nowadays. I took my BS in Architectrue; the average number of hours we worked in studio was 45, on days leading up to a praxis, we generally worked around the clock. This was the norm for architecture studies and our program wasn't as demanding as a BArch. Physics, biochemeistry, engineering, mathmatics and others of those types also have their rather ruthless demands, as to pre-med programs of all types.

Art Majors, as well (includign Theatre arts etc) also do a hellof a lot of work for their degree.

In all of the professions above (and nursing), your professional life going to be very demanding; long hours, stringent deadlines, often a lot of personal strain as you reveal your intimate creative urges to have them stomped on by critics everywhere.

Degrees where you're likely going to be moving into say ...cubicle world, or academia - their less high pressue, IMO. Which is not to say that cubicle world or academia don't have their demands and pressures but the preparation for them is different. For example, I think that academic oriented paths spend a lot of time on social networking and social skill because ... those are going to be critical for your profession.
