Your college or uni will have an academic advisor who can help you with this and they will also know the various workloads of each major. Your college or uni may also have unique degrees that appeal to you more. My first degree required even amounts of history, philosophy, literature and languauges and was designed as a pre-law degree even though no law classes were required it simply developed the skills needed for law school.
Hey Neil as more of a hard sciences type I'm wondering if there are jobs for people with a bachelors in those fields or if you need an advanced degree or at least a teaching certificate....
