<p>So in all of the applications I've started, I've put undecided, because I really don't know what exactly I want to do yet. One of the schools I want to apply to (Cal Poly San Luis Obispo) says that you can't go in undecided and you can't change your major after the application deadline or once you're in college.
So now, I have to figure out what I want to choose for my major. I know that I want to do something math related. I've been thinking computer science, some sort of engineering, accounting, etc. I may want to pursue an MBA too.
Anyway, I want to pick a major that will allow me to make good money in a math field.
Can anyone comment on the different types of jobs for different math-related majors and which majors will lead me to a career where I can make good money?</p>
<p>Math-based computer science, you’ll have to go into graduate+ level to be doing something that really overlaps with math. </p>
<p>Engineering of any sort would be good. We need more info from you before we can really recommend something. Interests other than just math.</p>
<p>I don’t really like sciences. I’m not really sure what else I can tell you. I’m in AP Calculus BC right now and I love it. Do you have any specific questions?</p>
<p>Would you be able to live with accounting? No science and you seem to enjoy math.</p>
<p>I’ve kind of shied away from accounting because it seems like it would be boring. Accounting might be a last resort thing.</p>
<p>Are you sure you want to apply there? If you aren’t sure what major you want, it would be bad if you went to that college and then got stuck later on.</p>
<p>But, you could major in: Statistics, Computer Science (you might enjoy CS the best), or maybe Marketing? I don’t know a lot about marketing, but it seems like it would fit you if you wanted to get an MBA ;D</p>
<p>Computer Egneering
Statistics
Computer Science
One Possible would be dual major in
Statistics + Economics perfect for jobs, MBA, MS in Econ</p>
<p>What kind of jobs would statistics and economics be good for? And do those majors overlap a lot? Like would I have to take a lot of extra classes over one to get the other? Or just a few?</p>
