what is better a double major or 2 bachelors degrees?

A double major is when you’re simultaneously pursuing classes each semester that either count towards your first major or your second. When you graduate you will have one degree that will say “Graduate of “X” and “Y” major.

Two bachelor degree’s are when you graduate with one degree and then pursue a separate degree. You’ll have two sepapate degree papers that each state their respective major.

Of the two, if you’re absolutely sure you’ll end up wanting to study two subjects, I would highly recommend going the double major route. The main reason for this is the flexibility it offers of being able to pick and choose classes each semester for whichever major you want. Say for example the classes for the first major become very inconvenient schedule-wise, well you can go ahead and pick a class for the second major and allocate it for that, and vice versa. That way you don’t end up with a semester with a few classes because of the scheduling.

The ONLY drawback with a double major is that should you decide sometime in the future that you want to switch your status to a single major, then the classes from the second major will end up as electives and surplus classes for your first major, essentially becoming worthless.

Hope this helps.

A double major is one degree with two majors. A dual degree is two degrees with two different majors. Check the admissions policies of the PT schools you would like to attend. You may have to submit transcripts from every school you attended and they may calculate a total undergraduate GPA. I would suggest talking to a health professions adviser at your school to see what the best course of action would be. You may have a difficult time raising your GPA enough to get into a PT program.

Hahahahaha!

Ummm, when you’re a double-major, you get 2 Bachelors Degrees!!!

I doubled in political science and criminology….I have 2 degrees! :o)

Depends on what you actually learn from them. A degree doesn’t mean anything to me if the person doesn’t have the knowledge to back it up.
