How Did You Decide Your College Major?

<p>Pretty simple, sports are my passion in life.</p>

<p>o_0. oh my.
does that apply to a lot of bio majors?</p>

<p>I’d suggest you pick the most restrictive and difficult to get admitted into major, which for the things you mentioned is probably engineering. If you don’t start in engineering as a freshman, it’s very unlikely you’ll be able to graduate in 4 years. If you start in engineering but decide it’s not for you, generally the coursework you took will satisfy requirements for other majors. You can talk to/correspond with the counselor at the U you’ll be enrolling at for more clarification, but this is the plan that was recommended by our kids’ HS guidance counselor and has worked well for S & many of his classmates. Many remained in engineering while others have found other fields that suit better; most are still graduating in 4 years.</p>

<p>In your 1st year, DO take exploratory courses in fields that interest you & keep an open mind while keeping up in all our courses. Things will sort themselves out but don’t focus solely on the money you think you’ll earn in a particular job or field; things rarely work out quite as planned. Having a passion & aptitude for your field really makes the field much more interesting and makes you much more marketable.</p>

<p>Maybe some. bio is broad enough to where very, very different people can major in it and work in totally unrelated fields.
A group in my class found a condom in their cats stomach - totally hilarious.
Another one ended up being pregnant, and had seven underdeveloped cat babies inside - totally interesting. :)</p>
