I'd definitely wait the one year for my voice to mature and go to the Guildhall School of Music and Drama to do my singing performance degree....

I was accepted but they told me to go back in a year's time, to give my voice time to mature.

I never went back.

I don't think the op is talking about undergraduate degrees.

Graduate or professional programs.

After finishing my M.A. in Philosophy next summer I'll spend the following year or two contemplating a doctorate in Anthropology, Literature, Applied Linguistics or TEFL. Or to continue on in Philosophy.

It's a big financial and time commitment, so the decision to even do a doctorate will depend on my personal life situation and vision for the future (which has two basic directions).

I didn't mean all over again but that does sound interesting. What would you study if you had to do it all over again?

Back to the original question, I am think of geting bsc and maybe persue ma in economics.

I'd get my degree in business of some sort, either marketing or economics. My degree is in PoliSci, which was interesting, but it's not going to get me a high paying job as easily as a business degree would.

Philosophy.

If there's one d-a-m-n-e-d topic that gets shoved aside and overlooked these days, to everyone's eventual grief, this is it.

Graduate studies in English made me all too painfully aware of where my deficiency lay. You just can't begin to undertake any kind of rigorously critical analysis of anything--anything at all--without getting back to philosophy, which is itself a kind of dialogue running back to Socrates and the pre-Socs in the West. Miss out on this running gab-fest and you'll lack the necessary critical background for undertaking . . . well . . . much of anything.

Doing it over again, it would not be Women's Studies, as that isn't a real academic discipline to beging with-I would choose Fine Arts, Theatre.

Took a great Economics class in my Junior year
at University that changed my thinking. Had already
declared PoliSci and didn't have the math background
for it. But for the next year or two filtered everything
any PoliSci professor said through the new theory
I had learned and that theory has held water ever since
and it has put any power theory to shame. Think much
more like an economist now than a political scientist.

Yes. _____ Thought if it was good enough for me it'd be
for them.
