Which career path should I take? Medicine, business, or law?

I'm graduating this year to college and I don't want to go undeclared. So heres my delima...I want a job that makes a lot of money and offers job security.

I want to be a doctor but 8 more years of school is a bit too much for me, plus physics and chemistry are not my strong points (I'm ok in bio).

I'm leaning towards business (finance) but I heard that if you're not good at it, you won't even make 50k at the height of your career even if you graduate from a good college. Plus I'm not good in math (not that you need to major in it). Money is definetly an issue since I want a job that will eventually give me over 6 figures.

I'm also looking to major in history/poli science and maybe become a laywer, but I'm not that good at arguing nor am I that good of a speaker.

I'm not sure what to major in college, but I do know this, I want to make money (make over 100k eventually), so which career should I realistically look towards?

The whole point of college is to take different classes and figure out what you like, what you're good at, and what career is right for you. Almost no one knows what their major is going to be before sophomore year! And even after that they often change it.

I advocate getting at least a minor in business/finance no matter what, since everything revolves around business in America, and everyone needs that basis of knowledge, in my opinion. Even if you want to be a journalist or psychologist or engineer or computer technician (all potentially very high paying jobs), a double major in business/finance will always benefit you.

Especially if you don't know what you want to do, that degree will open up the most doors for you in a plethera of industries.
The majority of companies who recruit on college campuses are looking for business grads (whether finance, accounting, marketing, or management).

By the way, if bio and chem aren't your strong points, cross medicine off your list. Also, you don't have to be a good speaker to be a lawyer, but you do have to be a great writer/reader. There are lots of types of law and lawyers, and not all involve closing arguments in a courtroom.

PS-the average starting salary for a finance grad (undergrad) is just over $45,000. I graduated in 2006 with a finance degree, and my starting salary plus bonuses were $50,000 at a regional bank--and my salary will obviously only climb. So don't listen to your friends.

Do what you love; only then will you be dedicated enough to make big bucks.

What job could you enjoy doing and get excited about? That is the career path you should go for.

Picking a career path where you would spend 8 hours a day doing something that makes you miserable just for the money is a bad move, but unforunately a trap that a lot of people fall for. Don't do it!
