I like statistics, databases, history of society/anthropology, media/consumer/advertising psychology, journalism, alternative medicine, analizing and the natural world.
Mathemathics is a no, has to be words over numbers. Did a module for the OU but lost interest, after one of my questions to answer was wich character in Eastenders I would see myself as. I answered it though, the tutor replied i had promise but needed discipline. Few years back now, it was called 'Living in a changing society'.
I'm a mature student so am looking at the OU. I know i can go on their site and check it all out myself. But i'm hoping someone might have some inspirational wisdom or food for thought on here :-)

On the maths ... i'm a brilliant number cruncher but that is where it stops. Sort of been playing with the idea of accountancy but would rather have a degree and accountancy to me is like a trade qualification.

Do a Law degree. If you love reading and learning a practical stubject with many career prospects then a law degree is for you. Modules includes Property and Trusts, Criminal Law, European Union Law, Law of the Consitution, Tort, Contract plus any elective modules you choose.

If you are going to use the OU take an open degree, This is where you can take modules from several degrees you like and get a degree qualification without following a specific subject. I looked into European medieval history the classics and philosophy. which gives you a general humanities degree.
Good luck.

Don't get a degree in history or philosophy, although interesting, follow that interest on your own time. Good luck finding a job unless you want to teach or work in a museum. no offense to anyone who has or want these degrees.
I am going into mechanical engineering, but that is a lot of complex math. But I have a lot of friends going into finance and marketing. Marketing sounds like it could be good for you. Marketing deals with finding target audiences for products and how to help a company break into a certain segment. It deals with costs and finding what is appealing to people in that segment. It is an interesting job and you will learn a lot of interesting information. Once working things are constantly changing in products and services so marketing changes too.
Good luck with what ever you do
