<p>Jonathan1,</p>

<p>If you want to do intelligence (CIA, DIA), then I'd recommend you start getting rid of as many foreign ties as possible. Yes, even Canadian ties.</p>

42

<p>I want to do something like anthropology/sociology with a minor in history. Then maybe grad school for international relations, work for some organization in that area...Hopefully I can write a couple of bestsellers and be set to do whatever the hell I want. :) Or just marry rich and pursue my passion for taxidermy in Manitoba.</p>

43

<p>i want to be an investment banker so i will probably double major in finance and history. i would major in history because its really interesting and finance to prepare me for my future career goals.</p>

<p>Prolly chemical engineering or biology w/ pre-med program. </p>

<p>If I don't make med school, chem eng is a great major to fall back on (I love chemistry and have had a lot of success w/ it). This might also end up being why I don't take biology. After all, what can you do with a degree in biology? My ultimate dream is to become a doctor, a profession that I admire, not so much for the salary (which is quickly dwindling anyway), but because of the nature of the work. I feel like the honesty and integrity that was once associated with doctors is deteriorating and I intend to contradict that through my own efforts. I have the goal of being among the minority of doctors who place the benefit of their patients above the money they're taking from them.</p>

45

<p>i want to be an orthopedic surgeon so i plan to attend a 6, 7, or 8 year medical program.</p>

46

<p>Philosophy and international politics.</p>

47

<p>hmm...i have no idea...probably something science-y or i have no idea. if i'm not in science, I'm basically screwed and i have NO ideas. Same as anon</p>

48

<p>major in french, possibly double with linguistics
minor in german, russian, psychology or linguistics (if not double major)
meet education reqs, and pursue a Ph.D</p>

<p>teach french in high school or college, work translating literature, or teaching ESL abroad</p>

<p>in my old age, open a small restaurant</p>

49

<p>Political Science. Possible minor in Sociology or Philosophy.</p>

<p>And...good question :P</p>

<p>Probably major in classics and wind up getting a PhD. Oh and because I chose to major in classics I won't be talking to my dad ever again (he wants me to do something practical. I want to be happy.) I'll probably just get a teaching certificate and teach latin at some high school and eventually try and teach at a university. </p>

<p>I'm very indecisive about my future though so these plans can change at any moments notice.</p>

51

<p>Well, I've changed my mind since I last posted on here. Now I would like to major in either engineering or architecture.</p>
