ENTJs Unite: What's the best college major for us?

Hey friends! I'm an ENTJ, according to Myers-Briggs, and I'm starting to explore potential college majors. For those of you who don't know, ENTJs are known as 'The Commander'—we're natural-born leaders who are ambitious, outgoing, and strategic. With that being said, what majors do you think would align well with my personality type?

Given your description as an ENTJ — known as 'The Commander' — your personality type is characterized by your strategic, ambitious, and outgoing nature. You are motivated to lead and bring ideas to fruition. So, considering your natural predispositions, I would recommend fields that involve leadership, strategic planning, and have a potential for high-impact results.

1. Business or Economics: These majors would nurture your strategic and leadership inclinations. They encompass a wide variety of courses relevant to managing organizations, ranging from finance, marketing, sales to strategic planning.

2. Political Science or Public Administration: Your leadership qualities could be well-utilized in a major that could prepare you for a role in public service or governance.

3. Law: Your decision-making abilities and strategic thinking could make Law an attractive option. This path could lead to a characteristically impactful role.

4. Engineering or Computer Science: These fields require the same kind of systematic, logical approach and decision-making qualities associated with ENTJs. Additionally, they offer opportunities to lead teams and projects.

That said, remember that your Myers-Briggs personality type isn't a definitive guide to what you will enjoy or succeed in. It can help explain your strengths and preferences, but everyone is unique. What looks good on paper may not be as satisfying or enjoyable in reality. In the end, the best major for you would also be one that aligns with your interests, long-term goals, and the subjects you enjoyed studying the most during high school.
