Any advice for high school/college students before choosing a major/career

I wanted to study a social science or humanities before going into law but am not too sure what my options are limited to and would like an insight or some information regarding those options. I am looking for something versatile in the job market in case I shift gears in the future and pursue...

I'm a high school senior interested in psychology, cognitive science, and how that relates to AI. I am wondering what opportunities there are in the CogSci major and if it's worth pursuing in college.

Thank you for your input!

What if question

I have heard that the art industry is not a good industry to go into because of the lack of jobs and the unstable income, but it is something that I want to explore in college.

I have heard that the psychology is a difficult major because of the mainly essay based assignments, but I'm wondering if it is worth the effort.

I'm a really big procrastinator who tends to get things done at the last minute. Any suggestions would be welcomed.

I gave some thought into it and I wanted to be a virtual YouTuber (content creator) and a Vocaloid music artist. But I am not thinking of joining any corporation because I want to do it as an independent profession. What should I do to start off?

I am still in highschool

I am a junior. I wanted to know what clubs I should know that would look great for my college application and also show that I'm engaged in extracurriculars.

Preferably public schools

I am close to graduating high school, and I rarely have anyWhat can I do to improve?

As a rising senior who's applying for colleges, I feel some anxiety that surrounds letters of recommendations. This is not only limited to college applications, but job wise as well that I would like to improve on especially in future.

I'm a senior in high school and I think I've decided to do something related to psychology. However, I heard that psychology doesn't involve much math beyond statistics and I think my skills lie in conceptual math like calculus. Any recommendations for my next course of action or major?

I am taking and planning to take a lot of AP Math courses right now. Do I need a lot of science courses as well like AP Bio, Chem, or Physics for foundational knowledge for this pathway as well? #Fall24
