What should I major in college if I like these things?

I'm interested in history, Latin, arts (especially fiber arts and photography), and the environment, but I don't like science. I enjoy writing essays for school but I hate taking tests. After school, I would love for my job to be active (physically), or outdoors if possible (obviously not if I end up in certain historian jobs).

I want to become a constitutional lawyer one day. I'm a rising 11th grader and 100% dual enrolled in college classes. My pre-law goal right now is the attend ucla to major in history and minor in professional writing. Is there any ways I can make this general idea better or get ahead on preparations now?

My favorite classes are history, english and science. I'm very good at math, but find it daunting. My top major choices right now are history, english, or biology. I love musical theater, writing, reading, and plays trombone for marching and concert band. I've already got 110 volunteer hours, and have no idea what to do next to avoid getting behind in the college planning process.

How should I know what the best graduate school is for me? #Spring25

I've been searching for graduate schools as I will be a senior in college next year, and there are so many recommended criteria to follow for choosing a program. I value the financial aid offered by the schools, but I also want a program that supports me and the research I want to do. What types of things should I look for when searching for a graduate school other than the financial aid offered and the location of the school?

Is there good jobs for history majors in the job field?

I've always heard that history majors are useless. I love the study of our past and the stories of people. My APUSH teacher always said that there are plenty of jobs for history majors in business due to the soft skills learned from the major. What are some good jobs that history majors can go into in the business field, or honestly any? I've always heard that history majors can go into business analytics and I read on the American History Association that a history major became a supply chain engineer. Would I have to build other skills other than my history major to land a jobs such as with Microsoft office? Is there hope for history majors in the job field?

Is it better to minor or double major in history?

I'm considering minoring, or double majoring in history. I enjoy studying history and have 6 AP credits of history already. I was wondering if it's better to minor or double major. Which looks better on a resume to employers? If I minor then could I graduate with a double major in two business majors along with a minor in history within four years?
