Nursing and Accounting.

Outside of STEM, anything that doesn't have some kind of national board exam isn't worth your time UNLESS you went to a school with a great pipeline/network.

Think about the long term in terms of tech too.

I wish I knew about this stuff when I was getting my associates. I had no guidance on what I should major in until I had to look up online and realize stem is the only way.

I was lied to my entire life about going to school in anything will give you a good paying job, I wasn't going for shytty majors of course.



You can get an Associate's through most schools offering a program. Bachelor's is for management.​

I’m doing organizational communication and plan to use that for a job in human resources (gotta also get a certificate too though).

Other than that I could also use it for non profit management, preferably at a headstart program for me personally, or any type of community involvement.

I know i’m not going to be rich doing this shyt but I hope to at least be fairly comfortable and helping the community at the same time so

When u say hands on, do you mean trade schools or other majors ?
HVAC, electrician, etc. Not majors necessarily, but more on the trade/apprenticeship side of things. College experience/apprenticeship are preferred by employers. As far as other majors, I've never considered anything remotely non-STEM related, but Business is alright from what I've heard.

I feel u on nursing, I just have no passion for it.

I'm so stressed.


IT is great if you have a plan.

Nursing is always a solid option. Don’t let a single hold you back to it’s not that serious.

I know business has calculus. I gotta see what I can do.
