Should I study International Relations if I don't have any

It's a meme-science and the only thing you can do with a BA in IR is apply for Master's (IF your grades are good enough). I've also heard it helps get you into Law school as well, but I'm not American so IDK how that works. Ask fellow Americlaps about that one.

Overall, I'm glad I have a degree. Would I do it all over again if I could? Fuck no.

It's better to study something more practical. IR won't get you far without connections. You can do the foreign service, but you have to bust ass to do well on the foreign service exam and your IR degree still won't make you stand out.

If you decide to do IR, to excel you need to learn a language that's seen as "useful" in diplomatic/economic relations for your current country.

For an American for example, Farsi or Mandarin would be top choices (and also the most difficult to learn - probably another reason they are such desired skills)

Sorry I meant Pashto, not Farsi, but you get my point.

Farsi is super useful too. There are very few people who can speak it and Iranian relations are very important.
