Heya! Ala here to help!
I’m not planning on majoring in political science but I know someone who does, and ive learned you should take courses in History (especially US and World History), Government, Civics, and Economics, as these subjects give you knowledge on politics and policy. A strong background in Math is also crucial for analyzing statistics and other things. Also, consider taking classes like Law, Geography, and another Language to higher your stakes and understanding if your school offers these. Hope this helps!
