<p>What's your major?
How are the professors for your major?
How much do you like what and how you're being taught?
Why did you pick it?</p>
<p>I'm so confused. I don't even know whether I want to get a North or South Campus major. And this quarter, I'm taking random GE's...</p>
<p>comm studies. </p>
<p>freaking awesome. </p>
<p>loved it but i have a pretty strong passion for my field and really felt like i wouldn't be happy majoring in anything else. </p>
<p>see above. i thought for a while about what i could see myself doing for four years and then after school. i couldn't see myself doing anything else. it was a fairly easy decision for me. </p>
<p>it's normal to be confused this early in the game. as you take classes and meet people, i think you'll gain a better understanding of your options and what you'd be happy doing.</p>
<p>History is my primary major. I'm doing a double with Art History maybe. </p>
<p>The department is huge. Spectrum of different professors tenured, associate, visiting, ... so far so good. </p>
<p>Have only had a few courses so far... survey. Not that interesting. Enjoyable for what they are. </p>
<p>Versatile major. Easy to double/triple. Buying myself time for graduate school and future.</p>
<p>Economics.</p>
<p>Professors mostly horrible.</p>
<p>Topics can be interesting, but a lot of the econ professors don't know how to teach, so you end up learning from books/lecture notes and not from the actual lecture.</p>
<p>I originally wanted Business Econ w/ an Accounting Minor, because I wanted to get a Business Management degree and this is the closest thing UCLA has to an undergrad business program. I didn't have good enough grades for both the BizEcon major and the Accounting minor, so now I'm doing the Econ major and taking Accounting classes on the side.</p>
<p>What do you want to do after college, and what are you interested in? Maybe that can help you decide on a major.</p>
<p>was biz econ, changed it to DESMA now.</p>
<p>I've taken one econ class and one DESMA class. Enough said. Econ is interesting enough, but not my thing. I think I would go crazy if I stuck with it. </p>
<p>Biz econ was more of my parents' choice than mine. Most Asian parents want their kids in premed/engineering/CS. I absolutely refused, so the next choice down was biz econ. I finally had the guts to submit my application to DESMA. It was something I've always wanted to do. Hopefully I will be happy.</p>
<p>Taking "random GEs" is a good idea if you're not sure what you want. It basically gives you a taste of all the different kinds of majors offered at UCLA. You might take a class you never thought about before, and end up liking it. My suitemate was a history major; last quarter I took a classics class with her, and she ended up loving it. Now she's changing her major to classics just because of that one class.</p>
<p>I'm in the same boat as passerby and I share his opinions. </p>
<p>There are so many bad economics teachers. The only one that I would classify under the good/great category is McDevitt. Others are just okay or just plain horrible.</p>
<p>Cool :). I'm interested in comm, but I'm not sure.</p>
<p>I'm also interested in a lot of other subjects lol.</p>
<p>Anyone majoring in physics or philosophy like to respond?</p>
