<p>How difficult is it to major in two unrelated subjects, say Finance and Art History, without being in Plan II? I’ve seen many profiles on Linkedin of alumni that have done double majors, some that have even done Finance/BHP/Plan II/History(or whatever), but the recurring theme seems to be that they were all in Plan II. So I am just wondering what sort of effect does Plan II have on double majoring and how difficult it would be without it. Thanks.</p>
<p>Note: I am not in Plan II.</p>
<p>My daughter is in Plan II and yes, many students double major in Plan II and something else. Many are strickly Plan II. I think the double major for Plan II kids happens for a few reasons. First, many are freakishly smart, with the ability to balance an extremely large work load. Second, and probably more important, the advisors are very, very well versed in other areas and can map graduation plans for these students. And their best quality is if the they don’t know the answer, they get you to the person that does. </p>
<p>So you say, where does that leave me? It leaves you with the ability to major in whatever you want, you just need to make sure you are being advised properly and if anything seems even a bit “off” get a second opinion. You can’t afford to take a class that does not matter to your graduation plan if you want to get out in 4-5 years.</p>
<p>It’s useless to do, costs you a ton of money, and lowers your GPA… so if that appeals to you?</p>
