I majored in chemical physics. Fun for me but not a degree for most people.

I majored in Psychology in university, and now I am doing post-grad studies in Social Work. I enjoy the field that I am getting into, but part of me also misses the critical thinking and challenge that I had during my psych degree. Social work will be a fulfilling job and a great contribution, but psychology will always be my first love (academically, of course :P )

My BA is in English with a Philosophy minor, and my MA is in English with a Critical Theory concentration. I just received a one-year contract to teach English and Philosophy at a small university. After my contract is up I'm planning on starting law school.

I would love to go back to school and study History. I always did so well in those classes and I love reading about history.

I'm a double major in Philosophy and Latin. Uncertainty is still mine as to which direction I shall take next...perhaps law or comparative literature.

I've never understood how the university system works in the States but it sounds so much better than in the UK with a much better way of choosing your study subject. I'm studying English and Sociology, though last year I started a degree in social work, stuck it out for a year but decided it wasn't for me so wen to back to my first love - books!
Don't judge a book by it's cover - not always good advice
