College Majors

@ ViVi Machine;
My advice on psychology (I graduated on 2012 with a bachelor of arts in Psychology and a minor in Sociology): if you are not planning or do not want to go to graduate school, don't go into psychology.

With a bachelor's in the U.S. you are not allowed to practice; the certifications require you to have at least a Master's degree in order to take the national exams. I'm in my master's right now in a guidance and counseling program because the clinical and experimental degrees are based on research courses (always look into the degrees before applying. Clinical here only has 4 classes that revolve around actually seeing clients and the rest of them are all research courses and after 2 and a half years of doing research as an undergrad, I decided that is not my thing).

I'm majoring in Social Work next year!

Majoring in Chemistry with a minor in Criminology. If someone reads this and is thinking about a Chemistry major...beware, you poor soul, if the course load doesn't kill you, your complaining about the course load will drive your adviser to finish the job. There's 12 or 15 of us in the department in my year and I think we somehow managed to whine about organic chem more than anyone taking biochem AND analytic combined.

I'm a Biology based Pre-Med major, and I'm contemplating adding a Psychology minor as well. My end goal is to be a Psychiatrist, so it'd be a good thing to add on despite the extra work load.

I'm a psychology major with a pre-med track and I'm also thinking about double majoring in biology if my schedule allows it. :)

@ Astrid.
I also want to be a psychiatrist, but I'm literally doing the exact opposite as you. Psych major (possible) bio minor haha. You should definitely talk to a professor from your school's psych department about what psych courses you should take to prepare you if you're not going to major in psychology. Because I went to a psych prof at my school to map out my next four years and he suggested that I take certain classes but major in bio.

@cola frank.

Heh, it's funny you should say that. I've been meaning to email my psychology professor to see if I'm doing this in the right manner. Most aspiring psychiatrists, from what I can tell at my school, major in psych and minor in bio. A few don't even minor, they just take the required preparatory classes for med-school/the MCAT.

I'm majoring in Biological Sciences and if I have enough time/money I'd also like to minor in Criminal Justice.
Also if I get all caught up in my classes in enough time I may apply for a BS Concentration in Cell and Molecular Biology and Genetics, but that won't be until the spring semester of my sophomore year (I'm a freshman ending fall semester right now) so I still have time to decide on that.

I'm currently an Early Childhood Education major, but after I get my Associate's Degree, I'm switching to social work.

I've been looking at various degree plans (I might be going to college next year). I kind of like physics, chemistry, or engineering (aerospace or mechanical)...and I kind of want to minor in Russian, although I couldn't do anything with that degree, really, unless I majored in polisci or something.

I'm a second year college student majoring in English and secondary education. I absolutely love it. Every day at school is exciting!

I'm doing a double major, American Studies and Accountancy.

I'm in the third year of a Mechanical Engineering BEng. I can't wait until summer when I'll (hopefully!) be graduating.

Right now I'm majoring in French Language and Literature and minoring in Computer Science

I'm picking through my favourite sciences and I'm thinking astrophysics and aerospace exploration is cool, but so is genetic engineering and archaeology.

This fall I plan on pursuing a double concentration in the major Business Administration at the University of Washington. The two concentrations I am pursuing are human resources and information systems. I'm always going to apply to get a Certificate of International Study of Business, which will concentrate on Japanese.

Pre-medicine cause you know i'm that cool freshman in college this August :/

In my second semester of nursing school.

I'm going to be starting working towards my B.S. in Physics in a few weeks.

Biology major, my freshman year <3
