AI Thread Summary
A degree in Engineering-Physics does not guarantee a job equivalent to one in a specific engineering branch. Job prospects depend on various factors, including individual skills, industry demand, and networking opportunities. While Engineering-Physics can provide a strong foundation, success in securing a desirable position is influenced by personal effort and market conditions rather than the degree alone.
