Is this going to be worth it?

College Majors
1

<p>So I'm not majoring in anything business or practical, but i've decided to make the most of college, and take business classes anyway to learn the basics. but it turns out that i wanted way too much out of college. i want a double major and a minor, plus extra business classes. but doing so will pull me back 1 year if i do the business classes. should i take some at the college level, or just save the money and time and learn as I go? It's not certain I'll end up at the business area either, but I have a feeling I will. Here are the classes I'm thinking of taking. Are they going to be worth it?</p>

<p>-Macroeconomics
-Basic written business communications
- Business Finance
- Introduction to Accounting and Financial Reporting
- Marketing Concepts
- Principles of Selling
- Advertising</p>

<p>Below are the classes that fit into my schedule without making me a fifth year senior. I don't know if they would be enough:</p>

<ul>
<li>Marketing Analysis and Strategy for Non-business Majors</li>
<li>Accounting and Finance for Non-business Majors</li>
<li>Managing Human Assets for Non-business Majors</li>
</ul>

<p>What are your majors and minor? And if you're taking that many business classes by choice, wouldn't it make more sense to major in it? Or minor, maybe?</p>

<p>I'm going to double major in English and Philosophy and minor in Chinese. The business school is very competitive in my school, and I didn't complete all the pre-reqs yet. They also don't have a business minor.</p>

<p>I think you've got the right idea, but remember that you don't have to take ALL of those courses. I would talk to the adviser in the business department and ask her which courses are more important. I wouldn't lose the year (and the money).</p>

<p>okay, will do. </p>

<p>well, what tempted me to go for an extra year is my current job. it's only open to students for a max of 3 years. i only have 2 years left. if i'm still a student, i can still have the job. i heard if i wanted to apply for a better position within, 3 years would be better. the job is not bad itself. :D</p>
