I want to be an English major, but I'm wondering if there are jobs other than writing related things that English majors are good for? I want to know about availability and diversity in careers for people with this kind of education.

Will I be able to keep busy and learn more in a field like chemical engineering?

I am worried that I will stagnate in my education and career in the future, and I cannot see myself in a position where I am not challenged. #education #research

Is it okay not to know what I want to pursue as a career?

I'm a sophomore in high school, and a lot of people around me seem to be set on what they want to do in life. However, I haven't really found a topic or field that I'm incredibly passionate about. #career #career-choice #career-path #career-paths #undecided

If you could only choose between pursuing a career that has a high salary, or pursuing a career that you always wanted to, which one should you choose and why?

I'm still deciding my major. My parents want me to select a major that would help me acquire a high paying job, however the major I want to go into is not that high paying. #financial-planning #personal-development

Is the process of becoming a doctor worth it?

I know it's time consuming definitely -- 4 years undergrad, another 4 for med school, and maybe 4 more for residency and experience? That's at least 12 years and after all that, a lot of debt might pile up too. So is the time, commitment, and money really worth it? #college #doctor #medicine...
