<p>Anyone else feel this way? Got any advice?</p>
<p>don't worry, you'll just have to pick the most popular major at most colleges: undecided. </p>
<p>pick a college that offers alot of things and that you believe is an ideal fit for you. you don't have to declare a major until junior year at most schools, don't stress it now.</p>
<p>Many people don't, and it's not a problem. Some links that might help:</p>

<p>Advice? Sure!!! Take a variety of classes when you first enroll, and ask yourself which classes you enjoy most and why. Build on this and take intro classes in other majors that are related. And talk to friends you'll make and see what they think of their classes.</p>
<p>Here's a made-up example to show how things might work. You take a Bio for non-majors class and find you like science, but not enough to want a hard-science major. You enjoy your history class, and also your sociology class. Maybe Sociology is right for you, maybe Cultural Anthropology (to get a bit more science emphasis) would be a fit too.</p>
<p>Our senior D feels the same way you do and she is really tired of people asking her what her major will be in college. We have told her the same thing that others here have said. Take courses that interest you and something will light a spark. We had a very wise teacher once tell us that you didn't need to know what you wanted to major in when you went to college since so many change anyway, but you did need to know:</p>
<ol>
<li>What you are good at</li>
<li>What you are NOT good at</li>
<li>What you love </li>
<li>What you really don't like</li>
</ol>
<p>The thinking can be as simple as this: I loved organizing the canned food drive in my high school, but that's not a job and sounds stupid. It is not stupid, what did you love about it? I loved contacting local businesses and getting them involved, I loved setting up the challenges between different classes, etc. etc. I was good at keeping students motivated to collect cans. I enjoyed meeting with a local foundation and convincing them to match any monetary donations we received. A communications major (who is now considering law school) emerged from this discussion with my older daughter who started out as a premed/biology major.</p>
<p>I recommend mymajors.com. After going through the long and laborious process of answering its 2139408 questions, it suggested the majors that I'm looking at (one of which I'm definitely going to major in).</p>
<p>I'm a current freshman at college and I feel the same way. I will be taking classes for majors I've never even considered (History and Politics). You're definitely not alone. During freshman week, numerous people had their mind set on a specific major, now, after 1 semester, most of those people have changed their minds. lol.</p>
