History or Literature

I have a minor regret that I did something else. We didn’t do history at my school (we did the really shit combined Humanities) and I didn’t realise how much I enjoyed History until later.

History.

Nutrition. I've recently looked into it, but I'd need to do an access course first, and give up work, so not really possible.

The English language and linguistics. I did study it at uni for a while but mental health issues led to me dropping out and I never went back to it ☹️

Something with politics and economics.

Though I would also love to do something were you study wildlife somewhere really remote like penguins or something in Antarctica or turtles on Ascension Islands.

If marks didn’t matter then a language. Maybe Gaelic. But I’m really bad at languages so it would be tough! Even a third in a language degree would be amazing though.

DingleDongBellEnd · 12/07/2024 18:30

I did study English literature. And I'd do it all over again 20 yrs later. Same subject.
