Major Requiring the Least Writing

If I were you, I’d rather find a way to improve my writing skill rather than choosing a major based on the amount of writing required. Talk to your professor or academic advisor to find out if your school offers any help on this.

Also, choosing your major based on the amount of writing required is not a smart idea. Sure, math and computer science probably have less writing requirement, but do you actually want to study those subjects just because of that? Major in something you actually enjoy, and writing shouldn’t be a huge hassle for you. (Of course, if you enjoy math or computer science, I’d say go for it!)

Good luck!

I’m in complete agreement with this.

Writing is the arguably the single most important academic skill you can possess. It would be rather unwise to neglect it, particularly if you intend to pursue a career in academia (or even just an advanced degree), business, law, science, or mostly anything else outside of the retail and services sector.

You don’t necessarily have to learn to love it - just consider it a necessary evil.
