Wow i didnt think finding a major would be this hard...but I cant decide ever.
Ive already done my 1st year of GE at a community college with a GPA of 3.4

Im interested in the Economics/International Business Area but are they good degrees???If I do international business i would like to focus on east-asia as it seems to be rising..

Or are they bad degrees and should i stay away from them?
I just cant get myself into any of the other majors.....Doctors, pyhsicians, engineerrs are just not my thing..

Thanks

I'm constantly going back and forth myself. I'm leaning towards getting an AS in Health Information Technology. I'm still doing research on what I can do once I get the degree. As far as the Econ/Business degree what exactly would you like to do once you graduate?

if you're interested in economics and international business, find a major that fits these interests. don't get caught up in the "good" degree/"bad" degree hype. if you're interested in the subject, you're far more likely to do well in it and therefore, will find a way to succeed w/ it

If you want to do international business, do you speak a second language fluently? Or do you think you'll be able to learn to speak a second language fluently? I have a few acquaintences who work internationally, and they are only able to do it because they speak at least one other language very well, and are highly knowledgeable about other cultures.
