I want to be a journalist?

Question

At uni do you think it would be ok to do a joint honours degree with english and journalism, or would you just do a course in journalism?

Answer 1

...I'd focus on your spelling first. But that's depends on how much you can handle and how intense the courses are.

Answer 2

yes, we would like to see your grammar improve before you start writing for the public, but some colleges require that you have a minor in another subject (politics, science, pyschology, ect). what do you want to write about - if you just want to write for a paper, find out what a journalism degree would entail from the college you're going to.

There is a style/format when writing an article - regardless of how great _or horrible - your English is.
