College Major

Recommended Posts

Guest Scuba Steve

What is, was, or will be your college major? I'm trying to decide between Bussiness Management (boring, possibly more money) or Criminal Justice (more exciting, probably less money).

Criminal Justice for me. My ultimate goal is to become a Crime Scene Tech.

 

There are many different departments in the Criminal Justice field, and they all pay differently. I've researched CJ jobs with salaries ranging from as low as $20K up to $75K. Though I think your ultimate deciding factor should be about which career would be the most satisfying to you.

Chemistry. It changed a couple of times, but that's what I settled on.

Double in Mathematics/Economics

 

Could pursue grad school in either one, but then again, Popick's an economist, so... mathematics it is

Whatever you do, don't base your choice on money. That's just about the worst thing you can do. If Criminal Justice excites you more, then you should probably go for that.

 

I was an accounting major. Fits my personality perfectly.

I'm getting my Masters in African American History in the West. I was a double-major in Math-History (BS, BA).

When I go back, I'm getting a double major in English and Communications, with a double minor in Gender Studies and History or Sociology. I also want to have a teaching certificate.

Double in Film and Music.

 

I've considered Psychology and also getting a Real estate license on the side to do that part-time, since it's not a held-down 9-5 job, it's something to make extra money on the weekends and at night.

Heh..I could if I wanted to totally disregard the law and put myself in some serious legal risks. The fact that I could make as much as a lot of people earn in a year in the span of a month or so is tempting, but I don't feel like sitting federal time. I'll stick with my cigarette work.

I could always start killing people for a living again, but there is the whole moral issue and I have come so far in my redemption journey. I will have to keep it on the straight and narrow.

Ripper, I'd be very surprised if you've ever even killed a fish.

I'd like to learn to be a butcher. It wouldn't take nearly as long as college, and it couldn't cost much. It's not something I'd ever want to do for a 20 year career or anything, but I'm all about being a jack of all trades.

Currently at the tail end of getting an associates in Education/Special Education. I've continued to do volunteer work as a teachers assistant despite my work study course ending a month ago, and I may be getting a job as an assitant there soon.
