Best major for aspiring airline pilot
Hi all, I am 17 and about to start college in the fall semester. I’ve been admitted to several colleges in the US for pre-vet/ biology however, my true passion is aviation. As a result my plan was to pursue this major while working on my pilot certifications at a local FBO. However I’m also interested potentially becoming a real estate agent and general investor in case the pilot thing doesn’t work out (mostly because if I ever lost my medical in 20 years, that stem degree wouldn’t be as useful). As a result I am planning on changing majors and would like advice on what major would be the best choice to learn investing. I understand that one doesn’t necessarily need a college degree, however, in order to satisfy my airline pilot career I need a bachelor’s degree. Basically I feel that pursing a traditional stem degree while pursuing my ATP, and teaching myself investing would be too much to handle so I need appreciate any advice, thank you!
