Ok, I just finished my freshman year at Texas A&M with a 3.2 GPA, I am currently in general studies. I wanted to do Business but now I have been questioning that just due to the fact that although you get paid well I don't just want to be doing something boring all day. I've been looking into Biology maybe but I'm not sure how good the job opportunities are for that. I want a degree that I could use all over the world so to speak so I have options. Any personal expereiences? I'm looking for some ideas or advice.
A communication major, with a minor in international business. If you were enterprising you might turn yourself into an agent of some kind. The next Scott Boras. Or being a professional poker player.
Well business doesn't have to be boring and you can use it all over the world. Ask yourself what you are genuinely interested in.
Keep taking different kinds of classes and forget about the economics of a particular major. You still have more time before you declare a major. Find something you enjoy doing. Find something you want to do. It will either play out to your satisfaction or it will take you down paths you never imagined. Don't settle for a life of quiet desperation where you will never meet your personal or professional potential.
Stay away from oil. I have an undergrad in geology. It has taken me places, to NY state and across Texas within the past year, and I have contemplated off-shore overseas opps, but stay away from oil. So yes, getting a grad degree in geoscience will take you places if that is what you want.
Nursing.. no Joke if you want stability with decent income Nursing is not bad. Also if you specialize you can easily make 6 figures.
Exotic animal vet Architect Meteorology Zoology just throwing some random ones out there... it's a kind of broad question your asking. I'm in business. Happy with my decision. That said, I minored in Anthropology, and if there was more money in it, I would probably enjoy that personally a bit more - but I'm too greedy. I also thought architecture was cool, too, and I imagine you can be an architect anywhere in the world.
I would suggest quitting school and taking the first job you can find, which will likely take months. It's most likely what you'll be doing anyways after you spend thousands of dollars for a degree.
