<p>does choosing a strong and popular major reduce admission chances?</p>
<p>and does choosing a less intense or less popular major increase admissino chances?</p>
<p>The people reviewing applications probably spend 10-15 minutes on each application and look over hundreds of them a day. Hey, the probably don't care what major you want to major in, well at least I wouldn't.</p>
<p>^ LOL are you joking!?!? Of course they care wat major! You have to have passion and experience in a major....</p>
<p>the only schools where I know it actually matters is in CALS and AAP (well, just for arch. at least)</p>
<p>and HumEc, probably a few others too</p>
<p>Don't most students end up changing their major while in college though? On that note, my planned major is physics. How does that look on an app just out of curiosity?</p>
<p>But you'll need the extra curricular activites to back up your major when you're applying!</p>
