Should I major in Office Administration or Medical Assistant?
Asked by holaesjackie
I'm currently starting my first year in college but haven't been able to make up my mind. My aunt told me it was a mistake to become a medical assistant due to the lack of jobs and low wages. Although on the other hand, I'm afraid of choosing to become a Office Administration (secretary) will take over my life... too be honest I don't want to work sixty hours a week. PLEASE I NEED ADVICE AND HELP!

Best Answer:
dont do it THE PAY IS SHIT.
medical assistant

Office and then back it up with MA, Every one needs OAs but the market is swamped with MAs so if you can do both its great on any resume.

Do you want to work actively with people? Or do you want a desk job? That is how I would choose - which WORK will give you the most satisfaction. And medical jobs of all sorts will not disappear until people stop getting sick and injured.
