What does poli. sci. study exactly? I was never really clear. The one piece of advice: if you really like poli. sci. - GO FOR IT! it will be a great major if you are passionate... For example: I thought I would like psychology because of the possibility of becoming a therapist. However, I had always had a talent for maths... this talent burst through half through the semester, and I got really depressed about my psych major: me and my colleagues had nothing in common... all they wanted was the money, not necessarily to heal people. I switched into a pure math major and now I am taking 3-4 maths classes per semester and still getting a 4.0 (just found my final grades today-big relief). I found psych easy, but it just wasn't me, nor were the other people in it (honestly, i think most of behaviorism is complete BS, I like the positive attitude of humanism, keeps me from going back to depression ). Go in to poly sci, no worries about what people think, 'cause the only reason people call other majors easy is because they don't truly under stand them, or they have a weakness in that area.
