If you were to start college tomorrow, what would you major in?

I don't know but I'd try to find a doctor in training to marry.

Biology or IT.

Speech or occupational therapy. Clinical psychology.

English, with a minor in Classics. I like academia.

No regrets at all.

1) Nursing -- if you like biology and want a solid career that is easily portable. Entry level is around $55,000 to $70,000 per year. Advanced practice degrees can increase salary to low six figures. It's a very flexible career for women who want to have families, as well.

2) Art -- if you have the talent, go for it. My SIL has a BFA and a thriving business of her own. The demand for people who are good at design will only increase.

Physics and philosophy.

I did political science and philosophy and the poli sci major was a big waste in retrospect.

Speech pathology. The same emotional benefits of teaching with more flexibility.

Pre-med. I was in a really bad relationship at the time (abusive) and after it ended I beat myself up for a while that I didn't assert myself more and do it.

I'm in tech though, and make a good living WFH so I can't complain too much.

Software and/ or electrical engineering. hands down

Why? Just asking as my mother was a speech pathology major (back when a sheepskin distressed a sheep). She was a SAHM and only briefly worked as a volunteer, but where's the market? Of course, teaching the hearing impaired is part, but where else?

Just curious.

I have 3 or 4 friends.who.do speech therapy, kids and stroke victims mostly

Accounting with a minor in Finance.

[Anonymous]

I don't think I'd change. I majored in poly sci and minored in English. Learned how to analyze topics/problems and write. Priceless.

[Anonymous]

Majored in Politics, should have majored in Religion with a minor in Arabic or Chinese.

[Anonymous]

Yep, just coming on to say Chinese or Arabic.

Sounds just like me! Stuck in a job for the $$ and free health insurance. I would work in the medical industry.
