Which profession is the most respected profession?
In my country, Medicine is the only profession that gives you a guarantee of getting a job after graduation. But in my opinion, I don't think what you studied determines the respect you get.
What matters is if you are really good at what you do. As long as you good at what you do. Whether you went to school or not. Certificate or No certificate.
Jobs will be seeking you and that means more money. Money comes with respect and every other thing.
