I'll be double majoring in History and Biology if I pass out of classes with AP scores. I'll be aiming towards Medieval History or Military History.

At US universities, the subject that one studies for one's
degree is called a major. A minor is a secondary subject
pursued during study that appears on the the degree. But some univerisities/university departments don't allow them.

I majored in History.
In France, ancient history is not part of classics but of history too, not that it concerns me a lot as I focused mostly on "modern times" history (1492 - 1789) but I had to study some Greek and Roman history too.
Since I was studying Chinese in another university at the same time, I learnt some Chinese history too.

I would like to have taken a combined course in Latin / Ancient History but that course is not offered at Cambridge, so I went for Classics instead. It contains some Ancient History, but I do agree that it's not really enough. Oh well, there's always the Herodoteans Society!
