How does a college schedule differ from a highschool schedule?
I know that in college you have a major and a minor ( Or multiple minors/ majors?) and a certain amount of credits you need to take a year to graduate like in high school, but how is it different from high school? How do minors work and is it normal to take more than one or is it easier to just complete one? How do you know if you should take a double major? Is it better to take a minor or just take a few classes in a field if you have the time? I know you have someone in the school who helps you fit things into your schedule but how flexible is it compared to high school scheduling? And are some classes at strict times or do they depend on students' interest in the class? Sorry it's a lot of questions I'm just really confused on this area
MazomanieHow does taking classes outside of your major work?
I am a Sophomore in high school and am just now getting deeper into college and career searching. I want to go into communications-- Specifically Public Relations, with a minor in either marketing or graphic design. Still, when I choose a minor I'd like to take some classes in the other minors related to what I'm interested in studying.(English, marketing or Graphic Design, business, Business Administration, etc.) Is that possible? If so how?

What are the legal barriers I should be aware of when trying to open a small business at 14?
I understand that because I am a minor, some things will have to go through my parent, and some things I can’t do at all. But finding information for what I can and can’t do as a minor is really difficult. I know I can purchase supplies myself in person with cash, the e-commerce website profits will have to go through my parent, and lead to their bank account. But are there any taxes I should be aware of? Do I have to declare myself formally as a small business to anyone, or declare myself as a minor? Anything else on the legal checklist?

is it possible to get two more minors after I graduate college?
I am majoring in communications integrated media management. I have a required minor that will either be marketing or psychology. I am also required to take several art classes and two graphic design classes. I think it would be useful to gain a minor in graphic design and a minor in photography after I graduate. I feel like both would elevate my marketability. Would this be a good route or is there a better way to this?

Should I do a dual degree or a double minor?
I'm a freshman in college. At the moment, I am majoring in information systems. I'm thinking of a future career in data science, more specifically as a data scientist. Though, as a freshman, this is subject to change. I was thinking of doing a dual degree in data science. But another option is to minor in statistics and computer science. P.S I already have my AA degree. Update - I have since graduated. My degree is in Information Systems and I minored in communications studies. I am an data analyst at the moment #datascience #computer-science #college #minor #techonolgy #informationsystems #dualdegree #college-advice #statisics

What are some occupations for an International Business major Economics minor? Is this a degree a waste?
I chose International Business and Economics because I am interested in business and politics and wanted degree that could be useful in both, but the more I look for jobs in business, the less value I see in my choice. I am still a freshman so I have time to change it. #business #collegestudent #major #minor #economics #internationalbusiness #GivingisCaring

I want to pursue both acting and law, but I don’t know whether to major in both or to take one of them as a minor? And what universities even offer both? I really like Yale and I’m willing to work hard to get there, but as far as I know they don’t offer acting classes.

Would it be more beneficial to obtain a minor or double major?
I am a currently biochemistry student and I am very indecisive in my career path. I want to ultimately research and help in the process of creating medicines and treatments to disorders, but I also want to study genetics and cancer stem research. So, I have decided to either undertake a minor or double major in molecular biology. Correct me on this if I am wrong, but I researched that with a biochemistry degree one can utilize it to help make medicine or find treatments to diseases and disorders. Meanwhile, a molecular biology degree can be utilized to study disorders and bacterial diseases. If I double major, I will need to take another extra math course(which I despise math!) or I can minor but I do not know if it will be enough to look good in my resume for future jobs or to get a career in my fields of interest. So, which is beneficial to do, get a minor or double major? #biology #college-major #major #science #college #double-major #minor #molecular biology #genetics
