I have a degree in physics and astrophysics from a Russell Group uni and OP is kinda right but also kinda wrong. Yes, there are people in these sort of subjects who you might be forgiven for thinking need watered like plants but if you happen to be relatively "normal" in your social skills, then you basically have it made, depending on which career you choose to go into; HR types are looking for actual skillsets they can use - analytical ability, problem solving, all that sort of shit - and it's an easier sell with a hard science or highly-technical degree. Even the postgraduate options typically available to liberal arts grads - law training courses etc. - are still open to you with a STEM degree if you feel inclined. Having a degree is basically a box you have to tick these days; a STEM degree just allows you to bring a reputation for definitely not being an idiot and a host of "bonus skills" along with your transcript.

The only exception to this are the CS people; every CS guy I've met has been one of those arrogant aspie types.
