Hello everyone, so currently I am in a tricky situation and would love some input. I am about to finish my second year of undergrad and I want to switch my major. I am currently in pre-med but realized I was in the major for all the wrong reasons (parental influence, no passion, etc.) and realized I want to start a career in law enforcement. I would love to be able to land a job in big departments like the CIA or the FBI and wanted to know, what is the best major to help me reach this goal. I wanted to do a minor as well to help differentiate me a little. So I would love to know what you all think a good major/minor combination would be to apply for the CIA or FBI. Thanks for all the help you guys will offer!
Both the CIA and FBI have many different types of jobs. I know people who have joined from very different educational backgrounds (foreign languages, business, criminal justice to name but a few). I’m not sure how many people they hire each year so you may need to cast a wider net in terms of where you want to work.

I should’ve said in my first post that I understand the difficulty to get into these departments and I’m not planning on applying directly to the fbi or cia without experience. I was just curious as to which major is most sought after
