<p>Hi there :) So Im a senior in highschool and I go to a technical school and my trade is fashion merchandising and entrepreneurship. Im looking for a major that would help me best in running a physical clothing store, sort of like a boutique and also an online store. I was thinking fashion merchandising might work but I'm still a bit iffy. Im not so confident in my merchandising skills so far because the lack of knowledge provided to me. I can sew but im not a fashion design kind of person. I want to be able to run my own business from what to stock in my store to the layout of my online store website. Please help , any help is appreciated !! </p>
<p>Thanks in advance :)</p>
<p>If you’re not confident about your skills, isn’t your coursework and internships supposed to help give you the knowledge and confidence you need?</p>
