Possible Majors/Careers

College Majors

I’m still in high school, but I’ve started looking to the future and have realized that I have no idea what I would like to do with my life. I have a wide range of interests and don’t know what I want to do. Does anyone have any good ideas based on the interests listed below?

-Math (especially Algebra, Prob, and Statistics)
-Social Studies (Economics and Government especially interest me)
-Writing (don’t really enjoy English and Literature, but like to write)
-Business
-Problem-Solving (doesn’t fit the trend, but would like a career that challenges me)

P.S. As to what I can handle, I’m above average academically, but not extremely academically skilled (usually sit around the top 75%. I have a strong work ethic, and can finish anything once I put my mind to it though it may take awhile.

Marketing would be a great option for you, economics, some sort of pre-law program… I had the same interests as you when I was a senior, and was top of the class in Art, English (which I didn’t like, but loved to read), math, and pretty much everything else. I decided to major in English and Visual Arts, and managed to minor in History and Communications. Next year I will be getting an MA in Arts Administration…ultimately it is about deciding what you want to pursue as a career and what you would like to just have as a hobby.
