Hello. I have a question about declaring a major and how best I choose one. I am currently attending community college and majoring in general studies and working towards an AA. I have two colleges in mind right now one public and one private I want to transfer to.
Now, I have an interest in current events, politics, culture, diplomatic relations, history, and just current events in general sorry.
I get that you can get a job with all of these degree subjects and they may not be around the area of study but you can get a job.
My question is what majors and closely related or what majors correlate with current events. I’m worried about getting a job and keeping employment. I would like to work for the federal government because they offer accommodations for people with disabilities as I have ASpergers and ADHD. I’m considered an idiot savant good at one thing bad at everything else. I may have a low IQ but I’m still very smart in those areas above and open to looking into other subjects to. Sorry if sound like an idiot.
The sciences are not my area. Physics, chemistry, and genetics/biology are not my thing. However, I do like weather and studying landscapes and looking at maps.
Now, at math wise. Pure mathematics I struggle with and I like trigonometry and looking at data graphs but calculus I feel I might not be good at even though I’ve never taken it. Algebra was a struggle as all through high school I had bad math teachers. I met with a career counselor and she said statistics is a lot different than pure mathematics.
I would like to go to grad school because I think I have the potential plus I love researching and writing about my research. I do it all the time. I’m also working on an honors project right now and could get a good reccomendation for grad school if in fact I decided to do it.
Anyways sorry if I’m rambleing but my main point is what majors are close or relate to current events. And what majors you think I should consider. I’m wanting to do something I enjoy but I also want a job and I’m worried.
Thank you,
Regards
