Major/Career

<p>Please help me. Don't know what to do with my life and I want a clear path before starting college (i'm a senior)</p>

<p>I LOVE writing and it is my strongest subject
I also love history/politics
Love traveling
Want to help the world in a significant way but still make a lot of money</p>

<p>Any help is appreciated</p>

<p>Oh my god... that is EXACTLY my description... </p>

<p>I was also very interested in knowing what good-paying careers are out there for a person who is strong in writing and loves history/politics. (I'm a senior in HS as well)</p>

<p>I was contemplating about majoring in Political science, but the job opportunities for that is just not that good... so I'm deciding to apply as a Business major even though writing and politics are my strongest / most favorite.</p>

<p>Anyone with any comments?</p>

<p>international relations/studies
anthropology
geography
history
poli sci
religious studies
american studies (or african, middle eastern, latin american, east asian, etc etc etc studies)</p>

<p>I'm more worried about finding a decent career afterwards...</p>

<p>What kind of career could I find with a degree in international relations/studies or poli sci that could cater to my strengths of writing and love of politics and history.</p>

<p>I would also be interested in the career after a MA in either anthropology, geography or poli sci. Does it help if I speak german, french, english and spanish fluently? ;)</p>

<p>It sounds like you would make a killer journalist.</p>

<p>I say journalism. You can also get a double major or a minor in poli sci or history.</p>

<p>double major international studies with creative writing or journalism
maybe even minor in history or poli sci</p>

<p>just do whatever the **** you want and it willl come out for the best ehh?</p>

<p>ooh and go to a place with a kick ass study abroad program
a few names pop into my head
Middlebury
University of Iowa
NYU
Macalester
just look up stuff and you will find what you want</p>

<p>god it's my 3rd post in this thread in like 5 minutes...i need to go walk the dog or something</p>

<p>*2nd.... this is the 3rd</p>

<p>hehe</p>

<p>OP, we have a lot in common! I'm planning to double major in Journalism and Gender Studies, with a minor in Global Health. My ideal job is to be a field writer for National Geographic.</p>
