If I am planning on majoring in something like Psychology or Pre-Med, would it be strange/frowned upon to minor in a language or possibly have a double minor including a language and some other science?

I have taken three levels of Psychology in my high school: gifted, on-level, and AP, and have enjoyed the vast range that this subject offers. I'm planning on going to medical school after college, however I am a first-generation American from my family, so my family and I are not familiar with the whole college and medical school process. I am extremely interested in learning Russian in college simply because my family speaks it, and I am not able to speak it as well as my other family members. #psychology #college-major #pre-med #college-bound #college-minor #language #russian

In order to get into medical school easier in the far future, is majoring in something other than Pre-Med like Psychology (or majoring in a specific psychology) going to allow for a bigger chance to get into the medical school of my choice?

I love helping others in any way, shape, or form, and the medical field will allow for me to continue this on a larger spectrum. I am continuing to volunteer at Emory St. Joseph's Hospital over the summer, and I am gaining amazing experiences from this opportunity, as well as learning about possible careers that may interest me to pursue later on. #psychology #college-major #pre-med #college-bound #medical-school #college-minor #choosing-a-major

What would be a smart minor for someone planning to major in neuroscience? And would there be room to double major in a related field?

While giving my choice of major a thought, it occurred to me that it may be a smart idea to minor in some other field, such as a language or business. Any thoughts? #college #college-major #college-minor #neuroscience #double-major

is having a minor in college really necessary?

I am asking this because when I started my first year of college I was not planning on having a minor. I have asked a handful of people if it is really necessary and I always get different answers, so now I bring my question to this website for the professionals. My advisor at school is pushing me to do a minor but there is really nothing that interests me enough to pay for classes other than my major. The only way I would pick a minor is if it would help me get a career later on in life. #college #college-major #college-minor #majors-and-minors

I am pursuing a major in psychology this fall, what would be a wise minor to get along with a psychology major?

I understand that it is difficult to get a good career in psychology without at least master's degree (even doctorate, PhD, or PsyD). I want to make myself employable while I am in the progress of getting one of those higher degrees in psychology. I want to minor in something else, so I have multiple schemas of knowledge and different skill sets to make myself availble to psyhology related jobs to ready myself for a career in the future. #psychology #therapy #counseling #clinical-psychology #college-minor #psychiatry #mental-health #school-psychology

Is it better to pair a double major in kinesiology and athletic training with a minor in psychology or a minor in recreational therapy if I ultimately want to become a pediatric physical therapist?

I will be majoring in kinesiology as a pre-physical therapy student, but I am also majoring in athletic training so that I can meet the requirements for an athletic training certificate. My goal is to become a pediatric physical therapist and work with kids fighting potentially terminal illnesses. I am wondering if it would be more beneficial for me to minor in psychology or recreational therapy. #physical-therapist #physical-therapy #college-minor #majors-and-minors #developmental-psychology #recreational-therapy

Do I have to specifically study general history in college to become a history teacher, or can I study something like anthropology?

I am a sophomore in high school and would like to go to school to get a teaching degree with a minor in some sort of social science. I love learning about other peoples' culture, but not many high schools that I know of teach an anthropology class. I enjoy history also, but again, the cultural aspects interest me the most. I am trying to decide which one to choose. #teacher #college-minor #history #anthropology

Would getting a minor make me qualify for a job in the field.

I am a high school junior with many interests, and would like to have the flexibility to do multiple occupations throughout my life. My question is that if, say, I major in a field like nursing, but also minor in education, would I be able to get a job as a teacher if nursing does not work out? Does this work only with some occupations? #career #career-choice #career-path #college-minor

Does taking a minor in college make you look better to future employers?

I am currently a junior in high school and have recently decided to major in Economics in college, I have heard a lot about minors, but I still want to learn more about them. For example, do you get degree for taking a minor? Do you have a lot more classes if you take a minor? But most importantly, if I choose to take a minor, is that something I can put on my resume or a job application? Any information would be much appreciated. #college-major #jobs #resume #degree #college-minor #courses #learning #interests

Are there any "universal majors"?

After years of exploring different career options, it seems like my list is getting longer, not shorter. Are there any majors that I can take in college that really can be applied to many different fields of work? For example, I know a major in Economics can help get you a job in politics. #college #college-major #jobs #university #college-majors #college-minor #occupation
