HELP
Eris:
Surely this is something that you are supposed to decide yourself, seeing as it is you who is going to be studying said major? We are going to be no help and this thread is going to end up with people making jokes about the courses and be no help to you at all.
Ozymandias:
Well if I had to do undergrad over I'd do some flavor of history but that is me and honestly I'm not that torn up about my decision anyway.
Do what you're interested in geez.
Tom:
You're doing arts right, what do you want from your degree?
Have you actually enjoyed any of the course you've taken?
It'd be a little pointless for us to suggest courses that you don't care for and aren't going to use. For example, I'm going to doing postgrad Med so for my undergrad degree I'm majoring in Pathology/Physiology. Like Hannah said, you really have to make the decision yourself.
pwhodges:
Consider which ones you will regret having done, and cross them off; when you have one left, do that; but if you have none left, skip education.
I mean, ask a silly question: get a silly answer!
What are you interested in? What might you do well in? What would you like to do after studying, and which would be most help for that? Note, these are not necessarily the same, so you may have to add more criteria; or just choose between them.
