    Additionally, there are specific careers that require you to have a degree to go into it which any one degree mentioned can be useful.
    Psychology- clinical psychology is a great field. Tough to get into but can be very lucrative. Also, with minors in busines or IT a psychology degree can be a great fit for HR management, IT, and a great stepping stone into the law.
    Fine Arts- can be good if you wanted to go into Web design, UX design, graphic design, art teacher, and many other art related careers which require college education. Additionally, with the right minors it can be a good fit for many different careers in IT, advertising, media, management, and many more.
    Photography- might sound useless at the offset but can be a lot like a Fine Arts major as I mentioned above.
    Sociology- can be a great stepping stone for a JD or an MBA. Also, can break into IT and other sorts of government and company positions which require just a Bachelors if you had practical minors just as Psychology. The transferrable skills can make you a good fit for journalism, advertising, and media.
    Archaeology/Anthropology- very similar to sociology.
    Theology- Interestingly many churches require bachelors degrees for their clergy. And can be used in the same ways as the majors that I mentioned above.
    Overall, the point is majors as the ones you mentioned may seem useless at the offset but if you had a realistic plan they can work out. Having a good plan is important for any college degree. A degree is what you make of it, not the title of the major.

    The degrees you mentioned aren't necessarily useless if you had a good plan for them. Just add minors in areas like computer science and accounting. This will add the hard skills needed that can look good on a job search. Also, be sure to have great internship, externships, and relevant work experience. This will get you a job in government and various companies. There are many companies that don't really care what your degree it in. You can even break into IT. A liberal arts degree teaches you how to communicate, speak, think, analyze, adapt, and a plethora of soft skills that can be used in any single work force. Also, various law, MBA, dental, and other professional programs will take you if you had these degrees. thus they can serve a great stepping stone.

      Great points Pranav. Many people don't have a plan and the people telling them to go to college never had one either so they enter college without a plan and think life after should be easy. That's the furthest from the truth.

      I believe understanding how businesses work is very important but you don't need school to teach you that. You can start a business as a hobby and self teach yourself by trial and error. You can climb the corporate ladder with a company like I've chosen. You can get your MBA or you can read "the personal MBA" in your spare
      time and learn the fundamentals of all businesses.
      Map out a path to where you see yourself ultimately and make it happen. It's sounds like you are on a great path. Complete that first before piling on so many other things.
