@PhantomVirgo Yeah, my dad has a really great job in the engineering field and I think he’s hoping I choose to major in something along the lines of that, but I just don’t have much of an interest in it. In your opinion, do you think I should choose my major as Business/Marketing or Journalism, considering I have more of an interest in the latter but am really looking for a more “practical” major? Which one do you think is more impacted? Has a better program for it (among UC’s)? I’ll look into the managerial economics major at Davis because I want to apply there, but I know it’s more notable for its biological sciences. I’m just trying to figure this all out as much as I can now and set myself up for the right path. Although, I know many people end up changing their major and ideal career well into college.

@Dunboyne I’m not that great at math, although I’m currently taking AP Stats and am one of the top in my class, so I think math similar to that would be fine. If you’re referring to studying English literature, than studying the broader field of Communications interests me more.
