Choosing a Career/Major

College Majors
1

<p>I cannot decide on a major and I have no idea what career to pursue. So I'm going to post my interests and see what you guys come up with:</p>

<p>I'll start with school subjects:</p>

<p>I'm good at math but if I have a bad teacher I hate it. And I always have bad teachers. I would prefer to stay away from math but I am capable of doing a job that involves some math but doesn't heavily involve it.</p>

<p>I really like literature. I enjoy writing and I am great at noticing and correcting grammar mistakes. I am also good at designing things like logos and web sites. Go to Mega</a> Flash Games - Over 100,000 Free Flash Games Online for an example. I also made mflashgames.weebly.com but I don't think it looks as nice. It is more complete, though. </p>

<p>Now for personal stuff:</p>

<p>I really like football. I am a stat head and I have the whole 2013 53 man roster of the New York Football Giants memorized. I know pretty much everything about the NFL, whether its 1940 or last week. And I love it all.</p>

<p>I also love nature/science, but not like it's taught in school. For example, I hate biology and physical science at school but I love the Science Channel and shows like Beyond the Wormhole. I also love nature documentaries and visiting national parks is my dream.</p>

<p>I also love movies and documentaries. Photography would be fun, and so would video editing. I am also a huge fan of video games, whether it's Atari 2600 or Xbox One. </p>

<p>So those are my interests. I have looked into Journalism but read that jobs are hard to find and it doesn't pay much. I thought teaching would be awesome but once again - not enough money.</p>

<p>I want you guys to suggest majors and careers that I can choose after the major. The career should be one that makes minimum of $50,000 a year (I live in Georgia, if that helps) and has job openings. </p>

<p>Thank you in advance!</p>

<p>No one can tell you what to do with your life but I would suggest doing something you know you will love. At the same time it should be career that will leave you financially stable. Take a moment to actually sit down and think about this. Only you can come up with the answer.</p>

<p>But how do I find out what jobs are financially stable? I’m asking because I’m clueless I just need a list of jobs to pick because I’m lost.</p>

<p>I know the feeling. It’s hard, isn’t it, to pick something that you like/love that also makes you a living.</p>

<p>You can do some research here:</p>

<p>Oh, and this one is also good. You just type in a career and then narrow it down to your specific state:</p>
