It seems like most lucrative degrees and eventual careers nowadays are math-centric. You really need to have an affinity for numbers if you want to get a decent job in this crappy economy.
I, on the hand, am not that good in mathematics. I excel in other areas. My bad luck with numbers is averted in effect by my affinity with words. I am excellent in utilizing the English language. Being a bookworm, I have good reading comprehension, a wide array of knowledge on a plethora of topics, and am a speed reader. Such skills seem to be overlooked, if not completely ridiculed, by employers. A solid career seems unclear to me as of now. I just want to find a niche major and stick with it in college.
Can anyone suggest any major which would fit my seemingly mediocre skills?
If you have any interest in teaching, majoring in English with an emphasis in teaching might be a good route for you. Healthcare Administration and Communications, a Double Major, might be an option as well. Having the additional major in Communications can help when dealing with patients that are upset or don’t understand the charges on their bill, etc.
idk anything about that kind of stuff but can’t you major in literature or something.
