<p>Another sort of ignorant question, but if I have absolutely no clue what major I'm interested in, what are the core classes I should take the first two years?</p>
<p>Short Answer: Depends on the school.</p>
<p>Slightly Longer Answer: Depends on the school and what you like...</p>
<p>Longer answer: Take GenEds required by the school and choose ones you like most, for example...</p>
<p>Fall:
Freshmen writing/composition (3)
Math if req'd (0-3)
A freshmen seminar if req'd (0-1)
Intro to Psychology/Sociology/etc. (3)
Public Speaking if req'd (take it early--it will help in other classes--3)
An intro course in one area you'd be interested in studying (3)
An intro course in another area you'd be interested in studying (3--take if there's space)</p>
<p>Spring:
Literature course (3)
American Gov't/History/Poli-Sci/etc. (3)
Intro to Art/Music Fundamentals/etc. (3)
Intro to Philosophy (3)
Either follow up one of the previous study areas you liked or try another intro course here (3)</p>
<p>You will want to tweak that per school, but that is a pretty gen-ed type schedule w/ a decent range of majors represented as well as including some basic courses that will help strengthen skills for other classes later on down the road.</p>
<p>thanks for replying! definitely helped.</p>
<p>Your school should have a list of required general classes you should take. Also, taking intro courses in potential majors can help you decide what you want to do, or maybe the school will offer a career class.</p>
