Having said that, a double major gives you more options with your career (I'm assuming that you will be choosing vastly different majors). To employers, it matters ZILCH!
Second question: Honours or masters?
Answer:
Do you plan to join the civil service? If yes, pursue 1st class honours. If no, don't bother. Honours has no value.
Masters also has little value if you have no work experience.

Wow thanks for the info about the double major being easier- I hadn't actually considered that before!
I suppose since you put it that way, having a double major that's too similar kind of defeats the purpose huh, i.e. comms and marketing majors.
Ah, I see. I guess it'd be better to take an honours so I don't close my door to working in the civil service huh. If the masters has little value at the start, how about later when I've been in my job for a while- will it aid promotion?
