Thinking About My Major

I scheduled my classes yesterday; well, I haven’t picked the times yet, but I met my advisor. The first thing they ask you, of course, is your major. Well, I’m still undecided, and apparently that’s bad. I figure I could maybe make it through the first couple of years deciding what I want my major to be, but apparently not. I’m still doing what I call ‘experimenting.’

I really want to think this out before rushing off to prepare for some major I might end up changing. My advisor gave me a link to this ‘career beam’ sight that’s supposed to help me pick a major. I tied taking one of the tests-it was supposed to assess my interests. I wasn’t really interested in any of the things they had listed, and ended up getting ‘logical’ as my highest interest. I really don’t want to be a budget analyst.

The thing is, I scored 0 for business. That…….makes no sense….

I haven’t finished all the tests yet, but I’ve taken a million like this before. I don’t know if it’ll give me the answers I want or not. I’m sure it won’t present me with the perfect major I need to go into. I just need to give this a lot of thought; waiting it out doesn’t seem to be working.

My major is English. Everytime I visit my major she always ask me if my major is still the same. I usually tell her the the same answer. I sometimes get second thoughts about changing my major, but it is something I feel that my best work is done in English.

I hope you will soon find your major and what you want to do. Please don't be the ones where they have changed their majors over 5 times. That is will make things worse or better in the future.
