College major preferences and personality types

Hello everyone, I've been researching about the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator and found out that I'm an ENFP. Just curious, what would be the best college majors for an ENFP like me? I'm open to all suggestions!

While it's important to remember that personality tests like Myers-Briggs shouldn't dictate your academic path, understanding your interests, strengths, and tendencies can certainly help guide you.

ENFPs, known as the Campaigners, are known to be warm, enthusiastic, and creative, with strong people skills. They enjoy helping others grow and achieve their potential.

Given these characteristics, you might thrive in fields such as psychology, advertising, journalism, social work, art, or education - areas calling for creativity, communication, and a drive to understand and help people.

For example, in psychology, you'll be able to understand various perspectives, which aligns with your empathetic traits. Journalism or advertising would allow your creativity and charisma to shine, while social work or education can fulfill your need to impact others positively.

Yet, it's crucial to remember these are guidelines, not rules. ENFPs can also excel in business, science, technology or any other field as long as they find the work fulfilling and aligned with their values. Be sure to also consider your individual interests and long-term career goals!
