    The 'Library Science' option is interesting, because I actually work in a public library.

    That said, this seems fairly accurate to what I'd like to do. Well, except the Mathematician. I HATE Math, like an abusive ex, we never got along in school, beyond the basics: addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, shapes, fractions, money, time, and managing finances.

    Trade you Aerospace Engineers for Lawyers? That way you won't have to be a statistician. And if you ever need clarification with any of your studies, you know who to ask. :lol:
