<p>Hi CC friends,
I am completely torn between these two majors (architecture and political sci with the intention of going into law). Applying to colleges and selecting a college to attend will greatly impact the quality of the education that I could get in either field. Which is smarter to major in? Which has more job security? I am unsure as to which would better fulfill my career needs, perhaps they are on par with each other. As I said before I am very torn, and would appreciate any help or thoughts.
Best,

<p>Well, do you want to be an architect or a lawyer?</p>
<p>neither have job security.</p>
<p>Thousands of attorneys and thousands are architects have been laid off since the beginning of the recession.</p>
<p>btw: Architecture is usually one of the most demanding majors at an college. It is also one that can be a GPA killer (which is not good for professional school apps).</p>
