At the ripe age of 18, it is time to consider my university and life choices. It is my ambition to work in the area of publishing however what under-graduate degrees do I need to take? Where can I attain suitable work experience/volunteering for this? Any suggestions? Please feel free to advise me? Thank you!
Suggest you check out The Society of Young Publishers (http://thesyp.org.uk/) for good resources. Degree wise, nothing specific, though English seems the obvious one if you're going to work with books all your life.
