I chose to study political science primarily because of my results on the college entrance exam, which is also called the GSaT in Taiwan. Another reason is that I'm still exploring my career path in the future. So I don't have a specific subject that I'm sure I want to pursue. And then, in my opinion, I think political science is an essential subject for human beings to understand how society works. Therefore, I chose this subject and want to discover myself more in college.
