Can't go far wrong taking a class that requires lots of writing. The only way people learn to write coherently is by practicing writing coherently. In real life: academic, managerial, technical, if you cannot communicate effectively you're just cannon fodder.

Can't go wrong taking math. If you're lucky you'll begin to read math like you read words in a foriegn language. Arithmatic is spelling, algebra is the syntax, calculus is the literature.

Take a foreign language. Choose one that is highly structured like Spanish. There are some excellent tapes that will give you a great boost toward understanding the spoken word in another language. Then take the language in college and look smart.

Work hard. Try for an A on very quiz and every paper. Put the social life on hold. You'll be a bettter catch to a better class of people if you have self-discipline and an education.
