Absolutely: go to the U. of Houston’s career development office. They have the tools to assess your interests and talents and to recommend careers that fit your style and skills. Then they can tell you what to major in, as well as what the projected demand and salary would be for the professions on your list.

The advice they can give you is FAR superior to anything you’ll get from us anonymous Yahoo!s.

So… this is kind of hard because those are two very different things. From my experience, journalism programs are really competitive and intensive, although it varies from school to school. And journalism isn’t really creative writing. Journalism is writing articles for newspapers, researching and informing the public. If you majored in journalism, you would most likely be writing articles for newspapers, magazines, or doing news broadcasts. You can double major in both, which would be useful towards a job as a food critic, but you don’t want that. But, well, you haven’t even started applying to schools yet, so you don’t really need to think about what you want to major in. Unless you’ve been accepted into engineering or music or something, you don’t really need to think about what you want to focus on because schools don’t expect you to know what you want to do with your life in first year, and they give you a chance to take an array of courses to test some waters. And along the way, you might pick up some new interests, and some of the stuff you thought you’d like actually turns out to be a nightmare. You announce your majors before the start of your second year, but even then there’s room to take courses outside of your program and figure out what you want to do. And if it helps to ease your mind, a lot of employers don’t even care what kind of degree you have as long as you have a degree – it shows you’re a smart hard worker! Don’t worry about it too much for now. You have an idea of what you’d like, and that’s already really good. Start reading into the different schools you’re interested in, and compare the different programs. Do some research, talk to your school counselor and apply to the schools and programs that sound the most appealing to you.

If you didn’t like the job, then it’s good that you’re reconsidering now, and I agree that your school’s career center will be a much bigger help than us. But if it was your first real teaching job, keep in mind that most people don’t get a good disciplinary balance right on the first try. It could be just as much your bosses’ fault for not giving you proper guidance as yours.

alot of people in my fmaily are nurses considering your situation i believe for you being a nurse is the best way to go.
