Hi! :) I'm just wondering. I hope to major in speech-language pathology (In middle school and high school people said I was quiet but that I had amazing communication skills and I love to help people out haha). So what was or is your major, and if you feel like telling me - why?

    Political science and social science education.

    I ♥ politics and I know the education degree would be better for me getting an actual job. Like one of those things that you get paid to do. Yeah, I like those.

    AA in psychology and BS in Human Resource management.

    I chose the AA in psych cause that field is interesting to me and I wanted my first two years of school to be easy as I am an adult with a life. The BS in Human Resource management was just cause the name was long... Okay seriously because the field is ever growing and very stable in my area.

    I have my dream job now, choreographer. But sadly it does not pay the bills well and I am old and this whole dancing all nigh thing takes it toll on my body. Time to grow up and get a real job.

    Oh, and once I'm done with these degrees, I might get an Associate's in American Sign Language translating. Because I don't owe enough of my soul to banks...

    Fine Arts ( Painting/Drawing).
    and Graphic Design.

    I used to color and draw on all possible surface areas i could find, when i was little. Thankfully i got trained to use more appropriate ways to use my creativity. My poor parents had so many complaints.

    I know! :sad:

    This year all of my tuition is being paid for with grants, so I don't have to be farther in debt.

    First degree: Double Management and Marketing- Everyone always told me I was a leader and needed to be my own boss and was fascinated with sales. I left this field because where I was working, my success was dependent on other people and that sucks, I wanted to create my own success.

    Second degree: Accounting. Turns out I like the logical and process side of accounting. I'm working at a CPA firm and am actively working on my CPA certification now.

    Psychology and Poli sci - I loved Psych in high school and thought I wanted to pursue a doctorate...changed my mind halfway through, loved poli sci, so added that and went to law school instead.

    My major was studio art with an emphasis in graphic design, and my minors were creative writing and art history

    Trying to figure out what I want to do for grad school--as silly as it sounds I had more passion for the creative writing minor than anything else I did during my undergrad so that's what I may be going with.

    My major was Economics because I'm a numbers nerd and I loved that I kicked *kitten* at something a lot of people found hard. Plus, I wanted to work in finance so fell in line with my goals.

    I revived my associates degree in paralegal studies, the classes were so interesting! Then I received my BA with an English major. I love to read/write...keep me away from anything more advanced than middle school math :-)
