I would say nursing. You can do the lpn program or the rn.  The pay is good and there seems to be a big demand for nurses all the time.\n\nI should have went that route--dumb me--I became a teacher.  Cripes--talk about low pay.  I finally gave up teaching and now just do telemarketing (with a Master's Degree lol). I now make $10,000 more a year than I did teaching.  Sad, isn't it?\n\nBe a nurse.

Those are two very good choices.  As is accounting.  Understanding the information system is key so I really like the double major.\n\nHave you had any opportunities to intern or work in an office.  Take the summer and try temping. You might find you like one area more than another.

You might major in communications, English, drama or journalism, although people who wirte sitcoms had all sorts of college majors. Consider choosing a field which genuinely interest you.

If I understand correctly, you're wondering what career choices are available to a business major, right?  Well, a huge part of college is figuring out what you want to do with your degree.  As a business major, you'll have a huge variety of classes that touch on different professions.  When you find the one that you like, you'll know it.

There's huge variability in how much money college ends up costing you. There are plenty of affordable options. In the end, students decide how much they pay by choosing the colleges they apply to and attend.

Tons. It's an incredibly hard major in college but the possibilities in that field are so diverse and interesting. If you can take the course load and really enjoy lab work, it's an amazing field to get into.

Please do some research before committing to this major.  Since the tv show CSI the number of people studying the field has saturated the market.  You will be in debt with no ability to get a job.

See about working at a convention center or country club that holds banquets. The money will be very good for a college student and the networking you can do is priceless. They are pretty fun, and if you work an event attended by people who are very successful you might start to learn a thing or two and have the opportunity to meet some people that will get you very far in life. It is all about who you know in this country and while fun jobs are "FUN", they might not be as benificial as ones that take a little more focus. Whatever you choose, make sure it is something that you can benefit from not only finacially, but gain knowledge from and life skills from. Good Luck in your search. may you have a very successful future ahead of you. -Michael

I majored in Economics and I have found it to be very helpful in my career. Majoring in any of your choices will most likely net the same starting salary. However, I think the benefit of majoring in Economics vs. Business or Intl. Bus is that you learn to analyze and think about business decisions, government policies and personal financial decisions. Economics also allows you to consider the social impact of Business decisions. A business major is good, but it is very cut and dry and doesn’t truly force you to think and consider real life decisions. If you are conisidering graduate school of some type, it doesn’t matter which major you choose, just make sure to get good grades. Also, I think Economics is a more difficult major than Business or Intl. Business.

Political Science....PolySci.  It would be a major to afford avenues into many meaningful professions.  Law, news, politics and many more.

College choices depend on what your intended major is.  Some schools are better known for specific programs.

as far as best paid jobs bussiness and pre-med are the way to go (pre-law is up there but not as high as you would expect) but the highest paid college graduates are not nesecarily bussiness majors but ones with general liberal arts degrees, but here's the thing if what you're studying makes you hate yourself all the money in the world can't buy that back, if you're miserable when you take bio, but Com classes make you come alive, do that instead, another interesting point is, a very low percentage of grads go into their major, (I think it's around 30% but possibly less) I'm a poli sci major and I recently met a grad of the poli sci department at my school (a fairly prestigious university) working as a director at a Christian summer camp

Not too many..especially "academic" degrees.  Most money-making degrees are categorized as "professional" degrees such as doctor, dentist, and lawyer...all of which are doctoral-level degrees, roughly equivalent to Ph.D.

i went through a lot before i settled on mine...which is communications. I now realize thats a BS degree and i wish i had picked English, which is what I love. Basically you need to do something you like rather than just pursue the degrees that are going to make you money. You can get a great job after school is over, but if you are miserable is it worth it?

A well rounded education is most valuable.  Business classes taken in High School will only get you the lowest entry level job in the real world.  You should look at High School as preparation for for College.  If you are looking for a business major in College, prepare in High School by taking all of the English, Mathematics, and History courses you can get.  A Speech class will be valuable because you will learn to be comfortable talking in front of a group of people.  Don't place a lot of emphasis on Science courses unless your interests lead you to strongly consider a career in the business side of a Science (eg: pharmacutical salesman).\n\nYou should also take all of the computer courses you can get.  Learn the basics and concentrate on spreadsheet and database courses.  You won't get far in the business world without serious skills in these areas.\n\nCollege prep courses will almost always include a foreign language.  With the influx of Hispanics into the United States, the ability to read, write, and speak Spanish will be handsomely rewarded in the business world.  It would be my second language if I were making a choice today.  I studied German and haven't had much opportunity to use the language.  \n\nOne of the courses I took in my senior year of high School has been extremely valuable in the years since.  I took typing because I thought it would be an easy grade and there were a lot of good looking girls in the typing classes.  I was the only male in my class.  I could only type fifty words a minute when the year was over (some of my class mates could type over seventy five wpm), but the skill learned has been invaluable.  I have long thought it was the best course I took in High School.\n\nI mentioned it before, but I want to mention it again.  Study, and master, all of the English courses you can.  Although they may seem boring, grammer and spelling are absolutely essential.  If you can articulate your thoughts and ideas both verbally and in writing, you will be far ahead of your peers in the business world.\n\nGood luck in your career of choice.
