Choosing uni course

I'm unsure of whether to pick English Literature, History, Law or Media Studies for my degree. Which one has better job prospects? Does it matter? And which of them is the hardest to get into? I feel like I know nothing despite researching them all. Can anyone tell me more about them and which ones they'd reccomend? I want a high-paying job but I also want to be an author someday. My dad did Media Studies for his degree and he ended up working high up in the police because some jobs just require a degree, not a specific degree... But I'm unsure. Any advice or knowledge appreciated! 🙏
