Possible Careers?

What are some possible careers for someone who is better in math and science, but likes politics and history? I was thinking of maybe a lawyer, but im only an above average writer, not really an outstanding one. Because i like politics more, should i pursue it? or should i stick with what im 'better' at?

Well, legal writing is more about getting the point across succintly and clearly rather than writing a novel that will leave the judge crying.

You could try litigation consulting if you're interested in the law. It's basically a branch of economic consulting where you determine damages for lawsuits and help lawyers prep for trial and stuff. Many litigation consultants have PhDs and have gone to law school. A lot of them are looking for people who are interested in going to law school and such.
